OzHub, the Macquarie Telecom-led cloud computing alliance, has come down firmly on the side of Optus over the copyright controversy surrounding Optus TV Now, warning that any moves to change the law "risk branding Australia a global luddite state."
Microsoft has thrown out the challenge to the RIM Blackberry, Palm Treo, upcoming Apple iPhone and other makers of would be smartphone devices with the release of Windows Mobile 6. The new version of Microsoft's cellphone operating system will include a new mobile version of Office.
One of the benefits being touted is that users of
Windows Mobile 6, to be avialable in the second quarter, will be able
to view files from the desktop versions of Word, Powerpoint, Excel and
Outlook on their mobile phones in the original formats.
Phones
loaded with Microsoft's new mobile operating system will also have
their Outlook data, including emails, contacts and calendars
automatically synchronised.
Windows Mobile 6 will also include Windows Live, enabling users to use instant messaging and search facilities.
An
additional benefit is that network administrators will be able to clean
data off the phones remotely if they're lost or stolen.
With
Apple iPhone set to be released by July 1, Microsoft is under pressure
to deliver the sort of functionality in mobile devices that users have
come to expect on the desktop. Microsoft is hoping that Windows Mobile
6 will be the answer.
