Microsoft helps RIM BlackBerry - competitor of Windows Mobile
May 12, 2008 [General] | By Edward J. R.
Here it comes: yet another proof that Windows Mobile does not have high priority for Microsoft. Step by step, one by one, features that were unique differentiator for Windows Mobile are being given away by Microsoft to other mobile platforms: wireless Exchange synchronization, Windows Media DRM and playback, Silverlight, etc. Now Microsoft is working on Office Mobile for Apple iPhone and already today Microsoft announced availability of Live Messenger and other Live services for RIM BlackBerry devices:
The integration of Windows Live services into the BlackBerry platform will allow customers who use Windows Live Hotmail and Windows Live Messenger on their BlackBerry smartphone to benefit from the BlackBerry platform architecture with the ability to communicate in real time using push technology, and an exceptional mobile communications experience. Customers will also be able to seamlessly access their Windows Live Hotmail and Windows Live Messenger account from their BlackBerry smartphone by simply entering their Windows Live e-mail address and password once.
