According to a report, this will "allow developers to build applications using HTML and JavaScript and run them using Internet Explorer 6 Mobile engine, so it would act like a normal web page, but without the address bar, menus and other browser features".
"The applications will have the .widget extension and will create a simple way for companies to create apps that support their web services," the Mobile Guerilla report added.
Geek.com meanwhile said that "[this] is great news considering that the Palm Pre will essentially have the same thing as its core application functionality, so you can expect a lot of applications to be developed using just HTML and JavaScript this year".
Expecting a bumber crop of new apps for Windows Mobile, the report adds that "the biggest difference here, though, is that Windows Mobile 6.5 will still run Windows Mobile-based applications, in addition to the apps/widgets created using just HTML, JavaScript and graphics files. This could mean a whole lot more “apps” for the Windows Mobile platform."
