It;s that time: Time for your end-of-the-week Microsoft news roundup.Developers are set to get an updated Windows Telephone seven software development kit (SDK) that will allow them to prep their applications for the first WP7 update (codenamed NoDo). The NoDo update will add copy-and-paste; efficiency tweaks; enhanced market search as well as other minor updates to the Windows Telephone OS seven. NoDo — originally known as the “January update” by Microsoft — is now expected in early February. Microsoft officials said in a podcast that developers would get the SDK refresh on February 4. As of nearly 4 pm ET,Windows 7 Activation Key, still no SDK. (A spokesperson said this afternoon that it was “coming soon.”)Update: 6:40 pm ET: The announcement about the availability of the up-to-date WP7 tools (known as the “January Update”) is out. Microsoft is warning it might possibly take a while for that bits to make it onto the servers.Will Nokia become a Windows Phone 7 OEM? There;s been a lot of back-and-forth among Wall Street analysts along with other mobile watchers this week as to whether Nokia and Microsoft will announce a licensing deal in the coming week or two. Some believe Nokia is going to become a Windows Telephone 7 OEM. Others believe Nokia will, instead, become an Android OEM. (Most seem to believe Nokia will not completely drop its Symbian OS platform,Office 2007 Keygen, regardless of its path.) I;ve said it before and I;ll say it again: I don;t see Nokia going the WP7 route, as they;d be required to adhere to a locked-down Microsoft chassis design — relegating the mobile telephone leader to “mere” handset provider. Maybe Microsoft — hoping to boost its market share in a fell swoop (a la Yahoo in the search space) will bend the rules and give Nokia more leeway? If not,Office 2010 Pro Key, color me skeptical of Nokia going the WP7 route.Windows Azure broadens beta of “Extra Small Instances” from private to public: Microsoft this week broadened the beta plan for its entry-level developer-focused offer for Windows Azure,Office 2007 Professional Plus, known as “Extra Small Instances.” Any and all interested customers can now use the beta version to prototype new applications on Microsoft;s cloud platform. (Note: This beta, like all Microsoft cloud betas,Office Professional, is paid, not free, and is .05 cents per hour.)Microsoft adds new aliasing capability to Hotmail. Starting as of February 3, Hotmail users can add up to five aliases per year to their Hotmail account, up to fifteen aliases in total. The goal: To permit users to organize different types of mail inside a single Hotmail account without having to share their primary Hotmail address if they don;t want to.
