Microsoft has made its height of vacation in New York on Tuesday, giving a first what his training looks like gadgets. Here Microsoft has emphasized its portable music player Zune, Xbox, Mobile Windows Mobile 6.5 OS and Windows 7. Microsoft, Robbie Bach, president of Microsoft’s Entertainment and Devices Division, said this season to emphasize the integration of “lifestyle” with “styles.”
All eyes were on Microsoft’s Mobile 6.5 operating system released today. The operating system adds enhancements to Internet Explorer Mobile, new navigation tools, support for Flash Lite, and the introduction of Windows Mobile Marketplace – a new app store.
For me, Windows Mobile 6.5, it seems a step in the transition to a future operating system – might be called Windows Mobile 7? – What would be a more realistic challenge Android, iPhone and other mobile operating environments for consumers.
As for Zune and Xbox, Microsoft says it will launch a new feature that allows content downloaded to one of these devices to be played on others. The video quality will support a stunning 1080p high definition (HD). Microsoft Zune representatives say the move will be the first of a series of Microsoft initiatives towards greater integration between different windows enabled hardware devices.
Tuesday was the participation of mobile phone manufacturers Samsung, HTC, LG, Hewlett-Packard and Toshiba, which provides all the first looks at the Windows Mobile 6.5. Also on hand were the mobile operators Verizon Wireless, AT & T, Sprint, Telus and Bell Mobility.
Microsoft, however, faces competition from increasingly visible, both Google Android and Apple iPhone fields in a struggle to expand beyond its relatively good position in the enterprise smartphone space. Today Verizon and Google have announced an alliance for Android-based smartphones, PDAs and netbook market later this year.
In the CTIA in Dallas, Texas this week, Samsung and T-Mobile introduced the II is a touchscreen phone that combines the Linux-based operating system Android with the Samsung TouchWiz new user interface to access one-touch functions prefer a user and applications.
