After Build 23081, the next one that‘s looked upon is Build 23502 experienced by htcpedia. Have a glimpse at the changes in Windows Mobile 6.5 Build 23502 (COM5):

• Faster, stable and more responsive than any of the previously leaked COM3 and COM4 Builds.
• Bottom taskbar color is changed to Vista-like dark blue.
• Some GUI fixes for Volume Control.
• Graphically enhanced Scrollbars and checkboxes.
• Graphically enhanced buttons throughout the operating system.
• New and improved Contacts app which was first seen in Build 23412 (COM3 Branch).
• Kinetic flow (ala iPhone) at the start and end of any list view like in Contacts and File Explorer has been removed which is kind of a step down in my honest opinion

The Windows Mobile 6.5 version is about to come on OCT 6 and the excitement has begun. The fresh builds- build 23060 and 23420 are out and seem quite attractive ones. Redmondpie responds with the following succinct:

• Email folder in Microsoft Office Outlook Mobile gets new colored icons.
• Improved browsing experience on Internet Explorer Mobile.
• Definitely more faster and responsive than the last leaked Build 23053.
• Faster boot time.
• Build 23420 has the new contacts app.
• Build 23060 has the menu eye candy but not the new contacts app.
• Incorporates the updated GUI from the later COM3 builds into COM4.
• Better memory management.
