Cell phone Microsoft?

[Dj-Icer]

Hi!
I'm not sure where exactly I heard the rumours, but Microsoft will probably making a cell phone. It kind of look so possible too. Are these just predictions or something is going to happen and really true?
Just imagine, you have a microsoft 'inside' your cell phone and it stays mainly in your hand... Think about that..

p/s: I've always wanted a large storage for sms...

make sure to keep your cell phone loaded with antivirus too

Yep, you'll need antivirus, and yes, you will need to activate it, and yes, it will probably use DRM for your music, and yes, I'll reformat the little chip inside and put SuSE on it.

Another milestone reached in the ultimate quest to take over the world.

Congrats, M$.

Its a product of Orange. You have Windows for your iPod too, for any sorts of installment. But wouldn't it be great if Microsoft will be making its own cell phones? That would rival for Nokia...

these kind of phones are already in use here in my place. only one telecommunications company sells this kind of phone here. and the price isnt friendly too. you can actually add extra flash card for your pictures and mp3 files. comes with almost all microsoft features: media player, IE, solitaire, etc. supports only Activesync 3.7 for PC-to-phone connectivity.

I would find it hard to believe that ms would develope their own mobile phones independantly of an already established phone manufacturer. Best way for them to do it is as they already have by partnerships.

BTW not to be completely anti-ms i cant imagine that they would ever top Nokia's ability for solid easy to use phones.
