The HTC HD2 continues to dominate the Windows Mobile buzz. And for good reason. This week I’ll point you to more videos showing the device and its interface, as well as in-depth reviews. And I’ll briefly note news related to Windows Marketplace.

I’ve already covered the HD2 quite a bit, even though it isn’t out yet. The news is that it’s going to be officially announced November 4. Plus, coinciding with this is a new push from HTC to become a consumer brand. Which is good, because the company is leading the way in hardware and in developing a touch interface for Windows Mobile devices. This week we’ll cover HTC’s higher profile and new device, as well as note the release of a free Daylight Savings Time patch.

As of late last week there were over 250 apps in the new Windows Marketplace for Mobile, and an unofficial free application now opens the store to Windows Mobile 6.0 and 6.1. This week I’ll also point you to an overview of some of the new Windows Mobile 6.5 devices that are out, as well as reviews of the AT&T HTC Pure and Verizon Imagio. Plus, I'll point you to an interesting opinion piece about whether Microsoft is falling behind in the mobile arena.

 "October 23rd, 2009 - Wizcode, the leading publisher of software for mobile devices, announced today the official release of Wizcode Photocopy Mobile - a new product allowing you to scan paper documents using the built-in camera of your device, convert to compact PDF files, share via email or save to your device for digital archiving or backup."

 In my last review of the AT&T HTC Pure, I posted on the unboxing and the top level features of the phone.

It’s exciting to have so many new devices from the carriers. This week I’ll point you to more reviews and videos, plus videos of the forthcoming HTC HD2, which has a 4.3-inch screen. And we’ll note a video walkthrough of the new Windows Marketplace for Mobile, which is Microsoft’s version of Apple’s famously successful App Store for the iPhone.

 If you have been waiting for a Windows Phone that is both svelt, stylish, and packed with capability, the Pure is probably that phone. The only thing that could arguably be added to it in terms of hardware design is maybe a slide-out keyboard. It's slimmer than either Storm or iPhone, includes a 5mpxl camera with zoom, a microSD for storage expansion, and a smorgasboard of wireless options not to mention 3G data service.

Wow, a lot went on this past week. We’ll start off by pointing you to reviews of Windows Mobile 6.5, then look at the AT&T Tilt 2 and Sprint Samsung Intrepid. There’s way too much to get into this issue of the newsletter, so next week I’ll point you to reviews of the Verizon Imagio, AT&T Pure, HTC HD2 (4.3-inch screen), and other new devices.
