Yesterday I read a few news stories about the launch of Back
in September we ran a story entitled Silverlight goes live,
where's the Windows Mobile lovin'? Simply put, Silverlight
allows web apps to be developed with animation, vector graphics and audio-video
playback. It'll compete with Adobe Flash, QuickTime and the like. Yesterday it
was finally announced for mobile phones.. ermm.. Nokia
ones...Ah.. Apparently Microsoft are still "working on" a Windows Mobile version of Silverlight, and the partnership with Nokia is designed to extend the reach of the product. GM of Microsoft's Developer Division, John Case, said ...
"We can't pretend to be a really ubiquitous play without being a partner with Nokia and Symbian."
Say what you will, this is sure to make Windows Mobile owners feel a little less important...
