Since hell froze over with the Treo 700w, it might be a good thing to take a look at the upcoming OS it will ship with, namely Windows Mobile 2005: Magneto. I got a good enough glimpse of the OS from Mobile-Review.com and I must say, that’s thorough!

Basically, Magneto will enjoy miscellaneous UI upgrades like the removal of floating bubbles from the stylus. Instead these help and info items will pop up from the bottom of the device screen. Magneto was obviously built for future devices to be used with one hand. The screen layout (which looks the same) will have provisions for no-stylus operation and pure keyboard action.

This preempts the arrival of several devices that will either take the form of the XDA II Mini Pro or the HTC Universal.

RAM will also work a bit differently - here’s how.
