It seemed pretty impressive when a user managed to get Windows Mobile 6 Standard up and running on a busted old HTC StarTrek — but WM Professional 6.1 on that badboy? You had us at hello. A member of the xda-dvelopers forum named Erofich has managed to hack together an install of the touchscreen-only mobile OS for the decidedly non-touchscreen flip phone. The configuration includes a number of workarounds for using the keypad as opposed to a finger or stylus, and it looks like there aren’t a ton of issues right now. We’re pretty sure that this isn’t the speediest or most robust implementation of the software, but it’s an admirable feat nonetheless. We doff our caps to you, sir.
[Thanks, maflow]
