Microsoft and Nokia announce partnership to bring Microsoft products to Nokia smartphones

I am listening in on the conference call right now, but Nokia has already posted the press release regarding the partnership and announcement. As you can read, this is quite a huge agreement that will bring Office Mobile and other Microsoft products to Nokia smartphones, such as Microsoft Office Communicator. The Eseries will be the first product line to integrate the Microsoft products, which makes sense since the Eseries is targeted to the business user.

Review: Samsung Blackjack II running Windows Mobile 6.1

Review: Samsung Blackjack II running Windows Mobile 6.1

I've had the opportunity to check out Windows Mobile 6.1 on a couple of Professional (aka touch screen) devices (the HTC Advantage X7510 and HTC Touch Diamond), but after seeing the Microsoft announcement at CTIA it seemed like the Standard (non-touch screen) devices had the biggest changes in the user interface. I was recently sent a Samsung Blackjack II (SGH-i617) running Windows Mobile 6.1 to evaluate for a bit and have to say the device is very impressive and it is great to see a manufacturer still making non-touch screen devices. I know the device has been out for a while, but I thought readers may be interested in this model with the 6.1 upgrade installed on it. According to the latest rumor mill, those of you who own a Blackjack II should be able to get the Windows Mobile 6.1 upgrade sometime in July.
