Microsoft Announces Windows Phone 7 Partners


Microsoft has announced that Dell, Asus, LG, HTC, and Samsung will release Windows Phone 7 devices to the market later this year.

The partnerships were confirmed by Microsoft senior product manager Greg Sullivan to technology website Pocket-lint.

Sullivan also told Pocket-lint that Microsoft would not enter into exclusive single vendor tie-ups in any country, as Apple did with its iPhone.

"We want as many people as possible to be able to get it", Sullivan said.

Microsoft recently shipped a beta release of its new generation Smartphone OS to testers and developers on a Samsung device that will not be marketed.

The company is confident that despite its late arrival, Windows Phone 7 OS will soon be counted amidst market leaders like iOS-4, Android and BlackBerry.

"We will offer the best aspects of Android and the best of the iPhone, giving users the flexibility of different form factors, but with the rigidity of apps that are guaranteed to work on every device that is out there", Sullivan said.

Dell, which is poised to step into the smarphone market with it Streak 5" tablet later this month, has reportedly been developing a Windows Phone 7 device called Dell Lightening, which is fitted with a portrait QWERTY slider.

The Dell Lightening is reported to pack a 1GHz processor, 4.1-inch OLED display, 5-megapixel camera, 1GB of internal memory plus 512MB of RAM, an 8GB microSD card, GPS, accelerometer, compass, FM radio and full support for Flash.
