Voda to Cut Off Sony E

[MBmagazine]

Vodafone have been at it again, this time vowing to cut off Sony Ericsson. The world's second largest network will not be supplying Sony Ericsson phones within the next five years.

Earlier this week Vodafone announced it's agreement with Microsoft that Windows Mobile 5.0 is one of the three handset operating systems Voda will be supporting over the next five years when it comes to development.

The other two OSs are Linux and Symbian-Series 60 which is owned by Nokia.

Although Sony handsets also run Symbian, they use the UIQ interface which will not be supported by Vodafone. Unfortunate then that Sony have just shown committment to UIQ by buying it lock-stock from Symbian.

Who do you think this is going to hurt? Vodafone, who nobody cares about, or Sony? Sony has the cool phones that people by, Vodafone just provides service that someone else can beat them at....
