Microsoft said on Monday that German mobile operator T-Mobile would be its second European customer for mobile phone software, while more Asian electronics makers were ready to produce handsets that use its software.
T-Mobile, a unit of Deutsche Telekom, will buy handsets manufactured by Taiwan contract manufacturer High Tech Computer , the same company that built the first Microsoft-enabled handset for France's mobile operator Orange, a unit of France Telecom. "It will be available in the summer," Anne Marie Duffy, Microsoft's European marketing manager for mobile devices, told Reuters in a telephone interview.
