Windows Phones set to launch on October 6

Tuesday, September 1st, 2009


Microsoft has taken the wraps off its Windows Phone schedule today with the confirmation of Windows Mobile 6.5 devices for October 6, 2009. Microsoft re branded Windows Mobile to Windows Phone earlier this year at the Mobile World Congress. The idea is to re-focus marketing on the products so that consumers are not confused at what they are purchasing and that they are aware they have a Windows powered phone. The Windows Mobile 6.5 operating system promises a more easy-to-use user interface,

Measuring Windows 7 appeal to businesses

Tuesday, September 1st, 2009

There are a whole bunch of reasons why Windows 7 should appeal to businesses, but one threat–the still-sluggish economy–could overshadow all of those reasons to move to the new operating system.

“I think they have a really good product at a really bad time,” Directions on Microsoft analyst Michael Cherry said in a telephone interview this week.

Samsung Joins the App Store Party

Tuesday, September 1st, 2009

samsungSamsung will be the latest handset maker to get an app store of its own. The company announced plans to introduce a marketplace for games and other applications from developers that will launch Sept. 14.

The app store will initially be available in Europe. And only select models of Samsung phones, including the Omnia and I8910 HD devices can access the app store, says the company.

Samsung is late to the game. Since Apple introduced the iPhone App Store as a centralized clearing house for mobile applications in 2008, app stores have become an important part of the business strategy for most handset makers. BlackBerry manufacturer Research In Motion, Palm and Nokia have all launched app stores this year. Even cellphone carrier Verizon has been courting developers to create programs for its users.

The lack of Samsung’s app store’s availability in the U.S. is likely to dampen developer interest in its announcement. Earlier this month, the company announced the availability of a mobile widget software developer kit (SDK). The SDK would allow programmers to create widgets for different Samsung phones that use different operating systems, including the company’s own version. The company also plans to hold a widget developer camp in San Francisco from September 11-13.

For Samsung, that may not be enough to woo developers away from Apple, Palm and Android.
