Today at MEDC 2005 Microsoft announced a new update for Windows Mobile (Pocket PC and Smartphones): Windows Mobile 5.0

The next version of Windows Mobile Software includes Windows Media Player 10 Mobile, a great multimedia experience that will make it easy to transfer songs, videos, and pictures from your PC to your device.

You can read the full press release for Windows Mobile 5.0 here.

Advanced IP Pipeline has an article with quotes by Bill Gates:

“In the past five years, there’s been a profound shift in the kind of data and services people access on their mobile devices — from multimedia to business applications,” Gates said. “Windows Mobile 5.0 enables our industry partners to develop exciting new hardware designs and solutions that will revolutionize how customers use mobile devices.”

Things are a little vague from what I could tell, but no devices are available yet which run Windows Mobile 2005, but I’m sure we can expect to start seeing them shortly.
