Lenovo shows Windows Mobile 6 offerings

by Chris Ziegler, posted Feb 13th 2007 at 1:11AM

Lenovo's been pushing phones in its native China for some time -- including some bearing Windows Mobile -- and the company is among Microsoft's launch partners for version six at 3GSM this week. Details are slim for both of these units, but we're guessing the Standard device on the right will be destined for Russia on account of its rather, um... Russia-ish keypad. The Professional handset on the left, though, we're going to call the "Peacemaker." We're not sure exactly how a Google logo found its way prominently onto the frontside of a Microsoft-powered handset, but hey, if all parties involved are cool with that, we're cool with that, too.

@ john doe: unsurprising? you obviously don't realize that a google button, let alone a Google logo on a Microsoft partnered product means something drastic.

The Professional handset looks like the Dell X50 series. Is it a phone as well?
