A few devices are very popular with rumormongers. The Zune Phone/Pink phone is one such unreleased device that they sporadically revive. The latest rumor has Microsoft releasing a phone in the next two months. Jefferies & Company analyst Katherine Egbert wrote in a recent note to clients that their “recent industry checks” seem to suggest the phone could be unveiled at “either the Feb 15-18 Mobile World Congress conference in Barcelona Spain, or possibly at CTIA in Las Vegas one month later.”
She further expects Microsoft to collaborate with an established OEM to produce the actual phone. Microsoft has been trying very hard to publicize its “three screens and a cloud” strategy in recent times. Although it is easy to grasp from the phrase itself that it deals with interoperability and convergence, there is very little in the way of specifics. Egbert feels that this phone is the missing piece in that puzzle. The phone, Egbert believes, will most probably feature a 5MP camera and 720P video support.
