The kernel of Microsoft's mobile operating system may not have changed much, but a great deal of rethinking has been applied to making one of the world's more prevalent smartphone systems behave more sensibly, like a phone.At a keynote address this morning at the CTIA Wireless convention in Las Vegas, Microsoft lifted the covers off of Windows Mobile 6.1, a widely anticipated refresh -- and in some cases, perhaps a correction -- to its mobile operating environment. Touch-screen operation is being added to a significant number of features beyond its home screen, which premiered in WM6 to mixed reviews and which for WM6.1 will get a highly anticipated overhaul.
