HTTP:: A Gamer 039 s Week 13 20 September

The week that was is a perfect example of how video-gaming companies should not be communicating with potential buyers, as Nintendo is still saying nothing about the Wii price cut, despite the mounting evidence pointing to its existence. But other stuff also happened. Here are the essentials. Monday was the day when Toys R Us leaked an ad for a reduced price on Wii, but the other big news was that the Halo series would not be moving to Project Natal, the motion-tracking device from Microsoft, until the technology matured, which might take some time. Tuesday, the PlayStation 3 received firmware version 3.01, which was widely expected by users to fix all the issues caused by the previous 3.00 release, but was pitched by Sony as an optional update that improved stability.

The former is already official, and the latter is expected to be announced very soon, yet both of them made an appearance at Best Buy.

Windows Mobile 6.5 has just seen some new builds leaked into the wild and that add to the series of builds that we've already seen available for download in cooked ROMs for some of the WM-powered mobile phones out there. Among the new builds for the OS, we can count Build 23049, spotted a few days ago, as well as Build 23052 and Build 23412, which have popped up recently on the xda-developers forums. Following the leaked Windows Mobile 6.5 Build 23047, which came around with a series of finger-friendliness touches, as well as with a series of user-interface changes, the Windows Mobile 6.5 Build 23049 also includes a series of visual changes. Thus, those who will try out this build will enjoy square soft keys, a somehow darker theme, as well as better integration with Manila 2.5 (HTC’s TouchFlo3D UI). The next in line is Windows Mobile 6.5 Build 23052, which can be admired with an HTC Hero Android-like look. The build can be seen on the xda-developers forums here, and se!
