Microsoft have announced the availability of a new line of Windows Phones around the world that are available in a broad range of styles and prices.
No longer are our phones just for business use - they are focussed on work and play.
The new Windows Phone will keep you connected to your business e-mail, calendar and contacts, as well as help you stay in touch with friends and family with voice, messaging, photo and video sharing, and social networking. Key new features for Windows Phone include:
An upgraded touch user interface that was designed for finger touch and the ability to cut through clutter to accomplish what you want.
A powerful browser that makes Web sites look the same on your phone as they do on the PC, so itâs easy to check in for a flight, get directions or pay a nagging bill from wherever you are.
Upgraded email including support for Exchange 2010 and integrated Hotmail client.
Microsoft My Phone, a new service that offers free automatic backup and online access to phone contacts, calendar, texts, photos, browser favorites and more. In select markets, My Phone also offers a Premium Package that helps users find, lock or erase a lost device.
Windows Marketplace for Mobile, a new marketplace with fun and useful high-quality mobile applications. For customers, Windows Marketplace offers easy access to quality tested applications. For developers, Windows Marketplace presents a new opportunity to reach up to 30 million devices.
