The Register says that Sendo junks MS smartphone and joins Nokia camp. Sendo, the UK handset maker was supposed to launch its Z100 MS 'Stinger' handset this month into Spain and Italy. Sendo today announced that it's stopping all development on the Windows for Smartphone 2002 platform. It is instead signing a licence for Series 60, the Nokia smartphone platform erected upon the Symbian OS. I guess this means no Amiga Anywhere for Sendo phones.

Posted by Anonymous on 07-Nov-2002 19:40 GMT | Executive 1: "We need to axe this project. It's going nowhere and it's a guaranteed loss."
Exec2: "Yeah, and we'll be able to transfer those resources to our new project."
E1: "OK. I hear there's this company specializing in taking on failures from companies like ours. Some yahoo called McEwan or something left a business card. Apparently they announce what they call 'partnerships' because it gives them some attention. Playing with the big boys you know..."
E2: "Heh. Yeah, getting some buzz for free. OK, what the heck, as long as it doesn't cost us anything. I'll give them a call."
Recorded message: "We're sorry, but the number you dialled has been disconnected..." |
