5 Best Practices for Smartphone Support
Microsoft gave the phone to Mr Trujillo himself for testing and he apparently passed it over to one of his senior executives who was pick-pocketed at the Barcelona show which is renowned for its hordes of low-life thieves looking for "five-fingered discounts". The phone and the software are so new that journalists have not even been allowed to glimpse the workings of the OS or the phone itself except from afar. The phone is thought to be an HTC Touch that will be released in the US this coming June. However, it's the Microsoft Windows Mobile operating system on it that has the news media buzzing. Nobody knows for sure that the stolen phone actually has Windows Mobile 6.5 on it. A report in The Register suggests that it may simply be the latest shell that Telstra has for Windows Mobile 6.1. Whatever the case, Microsoft and other major mobile phone software vendors may well think twice in future before casually entrusting trade secrets to jet setting Telstra executives. |
