"In the next few weeks" RIM will be launching their BlackBerry App World to more countries and will also be featured in more languages. Countries include: Italy, France, Spain, Germany, Ireland, Austria, Luxembourg, Portugal, Belgium, and the Netherlands; Languages include: French, Italian, Spanish, German, etc. "RIM plans on adding new software categories to make finding what you're looking for just a little bit easier and will be adding support for URLs, which -- when opened from your BlackBerry's browser -- will take you straight to an app's page in App World." Like I said, look out for it "in the next few weeks." Slowly, but surely, RIM will hit every country with their App World.

It looks that Windows Mobile 6.5 upgrade everyone has been waiting for will come no later than this September. Microsoft has just mentioned that the Samsung Omnia II will be running Windows Mobile 6.5 out-of-the-box and will be available this late September in Austria, thanks to Mobilkom Austria. The Omnia II has the largest OLED (3.7-inches) display ever on a mobile device, so it'll be sure to picture everything quite nicely for you. The Omnia II also has: an 800MHz CPU, a 5MP AF camera with D1 video recording, 7.2Mbps HSDPA / 5.76 HSUPA support, 16GB of internal storage, support for up to 32GB microSD cards, a 3.5mm headphone jack, and WiFi. The price has not been mentioned, but hopefully we'll find that out soon.
