Motorola widens Microsoft smartphone line

Contracts awarded

See what The Register's experts have to say on application security

Motorola will next year add three more handsets based on Microsoft's Smartphone OS.

So claims Taiwan's Chinese-language newspaper, the Commercial Times. And it says local manufacturers Compal and Chi Mei have been awarded the production contracts.

Chi Mei currently produces Motorola's MPx200 Microsoft-based smartphone, launched last autumn. The contract manufacturer will now work on the MPx220, which adds a digicam and Bluetooth wireless networking to the original model - both notable absences from the MPx200.

Compal will churn out the MPx100 and MPx300, though specifications were not given. ®
