Microsoft has made its Windows Live client available for Nokia S60 smartphone users. Earlier we saw the Redmond giant announcing the same client for the BlackBerry platform, and now they’re bringing the same offering to Nokia’s smartphone platform, to provide S60 users with quick access to such Microsoft’s services as Hotmail, MSN instant messaging, Windows Live Spaces and Live Search.
“Official” Espoo and Redmond never been so close, despite the fact Nokia competes with Microsoft in mobile OS arena. However, Nokia is using Microsoft’s DRM for its music store, pushes Silverlight to its smartphones, and Windows Live client has a dedicated page on Nokia’s website.
The Windows Live client is available from Download! application (Internet -> Mail and IM) in select countries — including U.S., Hungary, Iceland, India, Israel, Poland, Romania and the USA.

Dusan has been using smartphones since their introduction and is now following the latest trends in the industry. The "convergence" is what he's most excited about, and writing about it is the next logical thing to do. He thinks that using a smartphone is what everyone who cares about their time should do. In addition to his interests in mobile phones, Dusan also loves to experiment with the latest web and mobile 2.0 services. The idea of accessing and managing your information from any device no matter where you are simply amazes him. Whether it's an online to-do list, note taking service or a video sharing social network, he's there to try it out. He admits though, he's still searching for the ultimate web-based organizational tool, which "sings" perfectly with the mobile PIM application. Dusan used to run SymbianWatch.com which later became part of IntoMobile. He lives in Serbia, South-East Europe, from where he edits the site on a daily basis.
