Hello,

After reading the news blurb below, I'm curious, does anyone know if the
Windows Phone Operating System is as accessible as the 'normal' Windows OS?
I'm liking more and more what I'm hearing about other smart phones besides
the iPhone.  This sounds like another step in the right direction -- towards
better accessibility. 


"Nokia to get billions from Microsoft. 
Nokia (NOK) CEO Stephen Elop said his company will get 'billions of dollars'
from Microsoft (MSFT) in the early years of their partnership, with the
money meant to help Nokia market and develop phones using Microsoft's
Windows Phone operating system. Elop also said Nokia will see 'very
substantial reductions' in operating expenses, including from layoffs, since
it will need to spend less developing mobile software on its own. Shares of
Nokia fell 14% on Friday on concerns the company's deal favored Microsoft
and would fail to turn the company around; despite Elop's efforts at
reassurance, shares are down another 3.3% premarket."



To Better Access!
