Windows Mobile 6, formerly codenamed "Crossbow",[2] is the version of Windows Mobile released on February 12, 2007[3] at the 3GSM World Congress 2007. It comes in three different versions: "Windows Mobile 6 Standard" for Smartphones (phones with touchscreens), "Windows Mobile 6 Professional" for Pocket PCs with phone functionality, and "Windows Mobile 6 Classic" for Pocket PCs without cellular radios.[4]

products. Windows Mobile 6 Standard was first offered on the
Orange's SPV E650,[6] while Windows Mobile 6 Professional was first offered on the O2's Xda Terra.[7]
