Microsoft has released a beta of Office 2010 at its Professional Developers Conference in Los Angeles. The beta integrates social network LinkedIn with Outlook, offers a stripped back Excel for browser editing, and video editing tools for PowerPoint.
HTC today announced three new smartphone handsets in Australia, with two exclusively bound for Telstra and one to Optus.
3 Mobile may not be the first choice for many business users, but that hasn't stopped the company from launching a new push email service for those who need their messages on the move.
Telstra Sol Trujillo was not given the phone with Microsoft prototype software that recently went missing, according to Telstra.
Overnight Microsoft officially unveiled the latest version of its mobile operating system at GSMA Mobile World Congress 2009.
Last year I opined that, even if Telstra did launch Apple's iPhone 3G, conflicting goals meant it couldn't afford to seriously back the product. This year, Telstra proved me right, and the reason is simple: Australia's biggest telco just wants to be a Mac.
After months and months of waiting, Microsoft has finally kicked its latest mobile operating system out of the nest to see if it can fend for itself in the big, bad world of smartphone rivalries. Alongside the OS itself, Microsoft also rolled out a bunch of new web-based services as well.
Microsoft is showing off Windows Mobile 6.5, an update to its phone operating system, at the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona, Spain. The update, however, won't start showing up on phones until the fourth quarter of the year.
HTC has announced the Australian availability of the Touch Diamond in Sydney today, with the phone set to hit these shores between the end of July and early August.
With all eyes on the Australian iPhone release, HTC has stolen some of the limelight with the release of the Touch Diamond. Coming in glossy black, with a large touch screen and an array of features, everything about this phone screams iPhone rival.
Windows Mobile 6.1 has some useful new features, but is essentially a stop-gap while we wait for version 7.
Take a closer look at Windows Mobile 6.5, including the new interface and improved IE web browser.
The Snap will appeal to a specific segment of business-minded road warriors who need good messaging but don't want to pay for extras like media or social networking.
Those who can afford the Touch Pro2 will be buying a feature-rich smartphone with a unique conference calling feature and a decent suite of business apps.
The iPAQ Voice Messenger is at best, mediocre. There's nothing here that HTC, BlackBerry or Apple don't already do better, and unless your company already has a great HP contract, it's hard to recommend.
The Touch HD is a fantastic phone, if you can afford one. It out-performs every HTC phone previously and looks fantastic doing it.
The much-hyped Google Android phone operating system will hit Australia on 29 January 2009, in the form of the Kogan Agora and Agora Pro. At first glance, this looks to be one of the most exciting products of the year.
