Smartphone 2002 software is getting those last tweaks and will go gold in days or a few weeks. "After repeated delays, Microsoft is finally ready to ship its Windows Powered Smartphone 2002 software, formerly code-named Stinger, in the coming weeks but mobile phones based on the software may not appear for up to six months after its release, a company executive said here Tuesday. Among the hardware makers readying phones based on Windows Powered Smartphone 2002 are Compal Communications of Taipei and Sendo Holdings of Birmingham, England."
The biggest issues that have plagued Microsoft have come from demands by carriers and the GPRS hardware.
