No Zune Phone 01/11/2008
 

Well, the rumors of the Zune Phone can finally be laid to rest. Bill Gates said in an interview that Microsoft is not interested in going into phone manufacturing and would rather like to focus on the software aspect of the phone industry. He further elaborated that the current tie ups with existing handset manufacturers were more beneficial than creating their own phone would be.

I feel that that is a shame. I think a Zune Phone would be something that Microsoft would be able to make really well. After all they have far more experience in making software for phones than Apple does. And the new Zune's software interface is probably one of the best software implementations to come out of Redmond.
