Sendo To Launch Z100, Finally
After Microsoft announced their Windows Smartphone OS three years ago, Sendo was the first company to announce they would ship a device based on the MS reference design. Well, Sendo is finally ready and plans to launch the Z100 next month with operators in Spain, Italy, France and the UK. Though the timing is a bit embarrassing. Despite being the first to pledge support to Windows SmartPhone, their annoucement is on the heels of Orange and HTC's launch announcement. This has been a valuable lesson for the handset upstart whose spokesperson commented, "We won't announce products three years in advance in future."
Thank you for reading this Techdirt post. With so many things competing for everyone’s attention these days, we really appreciate you giving us your time. We work hard every day to put quality content out there for our community.
Techdirt is one of the few remaining truly independent media outlets. We do not have a giant corporation behind us, and we rely heavily on our community to support us, in an age when advertisers are increasingly uninterested in sponsoring small, independent sites — especially a site like ours that is unwilling to pull punches in its reporting and analysis.
While other websites have resorted to paywalls, registration requirements, and increasingly annoying/intrusive advertising, we have always kept Techdirt open and available to anyone. But in order to continue doing so, we need your support. We offer a variety of ways for our readers to support us, from direct donations to special subscriptions and cool merchandise — and every little bit helps. Thank you.
–The Techdirt Team
