Microsoft: No Plan to Offer Free Windows Mobile License Fee

image Reuters reports that Microsoft has no intention to give away Windows Mobile license fee faced to new free offerings from Google and Nokia for their Android and Symbian OS respectively.

Until now, phone makers have to pay between $5 to $15 per unit to Microsoft to have Windows Mobile running.

I am confident that in the current situation Microsoft could leave the status quo and we might see the strategy changes when we get closer to the release of the  next version Windows Mobile 7, Where they might figure out a better ecosystem to generate revenue rather than banking of OS license fees.  [Source Reuter]
