Initial products to support the new platform will include Motorola's flagship

and the size-optimized MC70 and MC75 Enterprise Digital Assistants (EDAs).

"Motorola continues to expand on its history of innovation with a breadth of

workers both inside and outside the four walls," said Brian Viscount, vice

president of mobile computing, Motorola's Enterprise Mobility business. "By

supporting the latest Windows Mobile offerings, Motorola helps to provide a

significant advantage for application developers while continuing to help

enterprise mobility customers increase productivity and improve mobile business

performance."

Windows Mobile 6.1 helps to provide advantages to Motorola mobile computer

customers deploying business-essential applications. Support for Microsoft

security-enhanced features such as on-device encryption to help protect

sensitive information. IT managers will also find increased device control to

wirelessly administer and deploy software upgrades, available through System

"With mission-critical applications for Windows Mobile devices, mobile workers

are equipped with the tools needed to be as productive out of the office as they

are in the office," said Stephanie Ferguson, general manager, Mobile

Communications Business, Microsoft Corp. "We're proud of our continued work

with Motorola to deliver the latest in mobile solutions and empower our shared
