Speaking the the interview with the new CE head of MSFT, the messages I got are: 1. MSFT will take going wireless as its top strategy. (Palm already said to be going to make all models to be wireless ready devices.) 2. MSFT may consider to add voice communication function into its Pocket PC in the future. [NOK and MOT may deliver their smart phone products (with PalmOS?) soon, much earlier than MSFT.] 3. MSFT is afraid of losing the game from PALM in hand-held devices like what they did in Internet database from ORCL. (It sounds MSFT does not understand how important the PALM's easy-to-use culture is.)
