"With the latest Windows Mobile 5.0 AKU 2.3 release for Smartphones, Microsoft added some useful features to its Smartphone platform, including a file explorer and a slightly modified Start menu. Microsoft always uses these AKU releases to either fix bugs or to add new features and while most stuff and changes are under the hood, these two new features can be seen and used by the users and both adds more convenience to the Smartphone use."

One of the things I like about my Q is being able to scroll through all the programs in the start grid view. Until now you had to "more" your way through it on all the other Smartphones. Some enhancements to the built in file explorer are also included. The catch here of course is will you be able get your hands on this latest AKU. Here is a list of them so you can see where you are.

So how does one go about detemining if/when an upgrade is available for your model? I'm currently with the 2125 but will be receiving my MTeoR anyday now.

To learn about updates you will have to frequently visit our site.

Sadly there is no easy way to dig up the updates on the carrier's Web site. HTC has done a good job of posting all the updates for its devices on http://america.htc.com [check under support].
