This summer, Microsoft plans to offer a software development kit to make it easier for more hardware makers to offer products that connect to Windows Live.Open the appropriate template for your chosen name tag. In addition, the phone will be able to show whether messaging contacts are online as well as notify users of new e-mail and instant messages. The Motorola phone will be "dual-mode," meaning it can either make traditional phone calls or make calls over the Internet through a partnership with Verizon. On Tuesday, it announced that Motorola will also create cordless phones supporting Windows Live services. The company had already announced at January's Consumer Electronics Show that Philips and Uniden were building cordless phone with built-in MSN Messenger. Microsoft also announced an effort to get hardware makers to build products around its Windows Live services.
The company said its "Customer Preview Program," which will allow a broader group of IT workers and tech enthusiasts to try out Vista, will start "in the coming weeks." Microsoft said Beta 2 is available now via free download in English, French, German, Japanese and Spanish. "We're churning out DVDs as I speak," Gates said. WinHEC attendees will also get DVDs with the software. Microsoft said that Beta 2 versions of Vista and Longhorn Server are available now to developers and those in its technical beta programs. Gates reiterated that several forthcoming server products will only ship in 64-bit versions, including its Compute Cluster Editon of Windows, the next version of Exchange and its next server operating systems for small and midsize businesses, code-named Cougar and Centro, respectively. Servers are moving faster to 64-bit processors, in large part because they need fewer drivers.
Although 64-bit systems can run 32-bit software, they require new drivers for any hardware device-drivers that have been slow in coming. The company perennially uses the Windows Hardware Engineering Conference to implore hardware makers to ensure they have built 64-bit drivers. Although many systems today have 64-bit chips, the necessary software and drivers are only now coming into the market. In his keynote speech before about 3,500 hardware makers, Gates also sounded a familiar note, talking about the coming wave of 64-bit computers.
