"The Motorola Q and Nokia E61 are high profile devices intended to generate buzz and to resonate with business users on both a functional and personal level.

"While Nokia has greatly expanded its product breadth and end-to-end solution with the acquisition of Intellisync, Motorola has powerfully combined forces with Microsoft in offering Windows Mobile 5.0." IDC expects these Windows Mobile-supported devices to undergo the fastest growth, comprising 32.3 percent of the market share by 2010.

According to IDC, Microsoft is the key partner that gives certain device vendors such as Motorola, HTC, Samsung, and Palm the ability to attack the core BlackBerry user base. "Microsoft is ramping up IT policy support and is seeking to exploit its dominant position in the IT systems of enterprises worldwide as well as with end users familiar with the Windows OS and Microsoft applications."{moscomment}
