With all of the hoopla about Microsoft;s newest revelations regarding Windows Phone seven, it;s not astonishing that a Windows Mobile six.x announcement last week received little attention.Microsoft quietly created readily available for Windows Cellular 6.1 telephone clients an update to Outlook Mobile that it truly is calling “Outlook Mobile Update one.0.”Outlook Mobile 1.0 introduces an over-the-air update capability to Outlook Cellular for Windows Telephone 6.one users. It also provides those users with a number of Exchange Server 2010 capabilities, including Conversation View, Free/Busy lookup,
Office 2010 Download, SMS Sync and enhanced voice mail view, according to company officials. Other new features enabled in the Outlook Mobile Update 1.0 release include, according to the a Microsoft spokesperson,
Microsoft Office 2010 Product Key, “a new user interface with a quick actions bar, easy folder changing, quick access to search, and setting server side rules for always moving a conversation.”These new features are only accessible to Windows Telephone customers who are connected to Exchange 2010,
Microsoft Office Standard 2007, not an earlier version of Microsoft;s Exchange Server, as they require the newest version of Exchange ActiveSync, the spokesperson noted.“Windows Telephone devices with Windows Cellular six.5 running on them already have Conversations View, Free/Busy lookup, Enhanced voice mail view, etc.) offered on them,
Office 2010 Professional Plus Key,” the spokesperson added.Outlook Mobile is Microsoft;s productivity suite tailored to run on smartphones. Microsoft is working on an Office Mobile 2010 release, which is expected to be out there to buyers running Windows Cellular six.x by June. Microsoft also is going to provide Office access for a variety of mobile platforms with its Office Web Apps release, which also is due this summer.Microsoft plans to release an updated version of Office Mobile that will work on Windows Phone seven devices,
Office 2010 Professional Plus Key, company officials have said, which isn;t too surprising, given Windows Cellular 6.x applications are incompatible with the Windows Phone seven platform. Microsoft has not provided a date as to when the Windows Phone 7 version of Office Mobile will be offered.
