"We are in the software business and it focuses our business activity," said Ellawala Tivanka, the Chief Financial Officer of Microsoft's Mobile Communications division, according to the 'reports at an investors conference in San Francisco. He was responding to a question about rumors according to which Microsoft was working on a new mobile phone.

There were currently no plans to develop a more smartphones, so Ellawala further. Microsoft gave up some months ago to sell its only just been introduced KIN-smartphones, which specialized in social networking and messaging features. With Windows 7 Microsoft Phone Ellawala is found entirely on the development of the hardware through its partners. You've won a few major producers who wish to offer their own devices, which are based, however, in terms of hardware specifications from Redmond. So be assured that a precise coordination of software and devices will also come when the end smartphones from different manufacturers.
