Zumobi to be Distributed with Windows Mobile
Posted by Darius Wey in "NEWS" @ 01:20 AM
"Zumobi today announced a partnership deal with Microsoft. Under terms of the business agreement, Microsoft will distribute the award-winning Zooming User Interface and mobile widget platform with Windows Mobile. This distribution agreement builds on the content partnerships Zumobi announced in December... Today, more than 140 devices in the marketplace worldwide are based on Windows Mobile. Windows Mobile-based phones are designed for people to be productive on-the-go, all while having the ability to stay in touch with colleagues and friends. Windows Mobile-based phones also include mobile versions of Office Outlook, Office Word, Office Excel and Office PowerPoint and Internet Explorer, giving people access to critical business data such as documents, contacts, e-mail, calendar items and tasks. Zumobi is compatible with Windows Mobile versions 5.0 and newer."
Zumobi's new agreement with Microsoft means we'll be seeing a lot more of their zooming UI on upcoming Windows Mobile devices. If you've missed all the Zumobi news as of late, the word on the street is that it's great, but at the same time, it's no iPhone killer. Whatever the case, it'll certainly breathe some fresh air into Windows Mobile and its aging default UI.
