Cool!

One question which I have is that I have a WM5 T-Mobile MDA Vario II - will a upgrade be available from Microsoft (or T-Mobile) for this device?

Looking forward to it.  Thanks

Jim, in your MSDN article, you wrote "Windows Mobile 6 includes many new features and resources aimed at reducing the effort required to build applications that easily adapt to form factor differences. You'll find that Windows Mobile 6 makes building a single application that takes advantage of the specific capabilities of each device while successfully working on a wide variety of device form factors easier than ever before."  What ARE these new features -- do they go beyond docking and anchoring?  Do they come close to the stuff we see with the Orientation Aware Control you demonstrated in your webcast last year?

I am interested in the support for camera control. In mobile 5, there is the CameraCaptureDialog. However, this is very limited on then programming side. Is there a more flexible interface in Mobile 6? Is there a possibilty to create your own customised real-time preview of what the camera is focusing on and then have the ability to take the photo? Even with Direct Show I cannot find a sample that gives this exact funtionality. If such code exists, please direct me to it. Thanks.
