New Microsoft cell phone has busy pros in mind | |

After several years of false starts, Microsoft has finally elbowed its way into the U.S. cell phone market. The world's No. 1 software maker is expected to announce on Monday a partnership with Motorola, the No. 2 handset maker, and AT&T Wireless to introduce a new handset, called the MPx200 smartphone. "Microsoft finally has tangible proof, in the guise of two strong partners, validating its mobile strategy," says analyst Michael Gartenberg at Jupiter Research. The MPx200 uses the Windows operating system and will give Microsoft a hard-won toehold when it hits stores this fall. In the past few years, top handset makers, led by No. 1 Nokia, along with major carriers worldwide, have been busy carving out new markets for cell phones equipped to send text messages, surf the Web, take photos, download ring tones and play games. For the most part, they've barred Microsoft from the action. | ||

Ya, it looks pretty good... but I want one on Verizon.
The only Smartphone I know of that will be available on Verizon is the i600. |

| Too late. Bought me a Nokia 6610. It's not smart, it runs Java... but it's better than my 8290 in many ways yet the same size. |
