UK only: BT offers mobile Office service for business customers April 18, 2007 [General] | By Edward J. R. Interestingly it is available at first for MS Smartphone and Pocket PC phone will come later but BlackBerry users will never get this service: Q. What kinds of handset are available? A. There will be two categories of handset: Microsoft Smartphone and Microsoft Pocket PC Phone. Initially, the handset available is the HTC 620 Smartphone. Pocket PC handsets will be available shortly. Q. Can I use Office Anywhere on my Blackberry? A. No, this is not possible. What is BT Office Anywhere? BT's Office Anywhere brings you a big advance in multifunctional technology. With a BT Office Anywhere handset you can work as effectively when you're out and about as you can at your desk.
Conclusion: it is good to see that Windows Mobile phones are leaders in innovative areas like DAB-IP (TV over DAB networks) and VoIP (a part of BT Office Anywhere offering). Unfortunately, as it is typical for UK, BT uses contradictory terms like "unlimited hour-long VoIP calls" (if "unlimited" then not "hour-long"!), so it is difficult to say how valuable this offer really is (after all Skype client is available for all Windows Mobile phones too), apart from the fact that upon signing up you will get FREE Windows Mobile smartphone..
