Microsoft Corp.’s approach to unified communications will break down today’s silos of e-mail, instant messaging, mobile and voice over Internet protocol (VoIP) telephony, and audio-, video- and webconferencing. Through software, Microsoft and its partners will put people at the center of communications through a single identity across all modes and integrate communication into people’s everyday work processes, including the widely used Microsoft® Office system and third-party software applications."</i><br /><br /> <img src="http://www.smartphonethoughts.com/images/Jerry-20060627-MSUnified.jpg" alt="User submitted image" title="User submitted image"/> <br /><br />If you are interested in Microsoft's vision and what they are planning for mobile communication then head on over and read. It looks like they are partnering up with a lot of different companies to make this happen. Hopefully not too many lawsuits will result. :lol:
