Window Mobile - WiMo
A new robot which actually control by Window Mobile. Brian Cross has opened a new era in the Windows Mobile development. A new developed tech was not a software nor a mobile pda, infact it is something more robotic. It is a fully operational robot which powered by Windows Mobile, codenamed WiMo.
WiMo, uses a Windows Mobile 5.0 Smartphone or mobile pda as its central control unit like a “brain†and a mobile pda running on pocket pc as a remote control. The name comes from the “Wi— from “Windows†and “Mo†from “Mobileâ€.
I built WiMo for a few different reasons:
1. I’ve always wanted to build a robot and wanted to learn more about hardware.
2. Working in Windows Mobile, i thought that our devices would be a lot of fun in a robot especially considering that they also have so much advanced functionality just waiting to be used in a robot (nice screen, speaker, several options of connectivity, an extremely rich API set, camera, etc).
3. This would be a great way to show off some of our new and existing APIs and use the SDK in a fun and unique way -WimoBot

Hundreds of students at a Bangladesh university have besieged the office of their vice-chancellor demanding exams be postponed during the soccer World Cup.
The Bangladesh University of Engineering and Technology had announced exams would run from June 3 to 29, ignoring a call from the students to defer the tests for a month.
“We will not withdraw the siege unless the authorities scrap the exam schedules,” said a protester at the university for 7,000 students in the capital.
The authorities called in police but they did not try to break up the protest.
“We are giving the students time to go back to their dormitories,” a police officer on the campus said. - ABCNewsonline
