Vodafone does not intend to use Microsoft powered cell phones
July 02, 2003 [MS Smartphone] | By anonymous 1.

It is a pity, because Vodafone is the biggest cellular network operator both in E.U. and in the world:
Vodafone aims to work closely with Microsoft Corp. in the area of its Office applications but has no plans at present to use its wireless operating system, Geitner said.
In October, rival Orange SA launched the world´s first mobile phone running Microsoft Windows-powered Smartphone 2002 software.


Besides this the source says that "services, not technology will fuel growth" in cell phone industry and this is not a theory anymore: "Vodafone Live!" service (or rather set of services) from Vodafone confirms it - it achieved big market success. One example of services available in "Vodafone Live!": some user is in holidays in Spain (E.U.) on the beach of some Mediterranean island, then he takes out his mobile phone with Vodafone Live!, takes a picture, and then Vodafone delivers this picture as a PAPER POSTCARD to some address in Germany (E.U.)!
