Sprint and Microsoft Combine Power of PCS Vision Capable Phones with Next-Generation Microsoft Windows Powered Pocket PC Software
Sprint and Microsoft Corp. today announced plans to offer two new innovative PCS Phones based on the Microsoft® Windows® Powered Pocket PC platform designed for individuals and mobile professionals who want a single multipurpose wireless device to make clear calls, access information, and shoot and share digital pictures. The new VisionSM-Capable PCS Phones will combine the power of the nation's largest high-speed voice and data network with the flexibility of Pocket PC software and the convenience of seamless integration and rich features in two uniquely designed devices from Samsung and Hitachi.
Sprint will offer two PCS Phones based on the CDMA version of the Microsoft Pocket PC software in the second quarter of 2003 including the PCS Phone by Samsung SPH-i700 and PCS Phone by Hitachi® G1000. Both Windows Powered Vision Capable PCS Devices will combine the functionality of a PCS Phone, Pocket PC and integrated digital camera, allowing customers to leave their laptops behind and still be productive on the go via wireless access to voice and data communication.
