Microsoft and Nokia announced a broad ranging alliance this morning which will bring Microsoft Office and other productivity software to a Nokia phones. The agreement marks "the first time Microsoft will make Office for non windows mobile phones," says Microsoft Business Division President Stephen Elop. There are 200 million Nokia smart phones out there, and Microsoft wants its software on all of them eventually. But initially, the alliance is targeting enterprise customers and will be integrated into Nokia's E Series business phones. The Microsoft software and features that will be ported to Nokia phones include: The ability to view, edit, create and share Office documents on more devices in more places with mobile-optimized versions of Microsoft Word, Microsoft PowerPoint, Microsoft Excel and Microsoft OneNote Enterprise instant messaging and presence, and optimized conferencing and collaboration experience with Microsoft Office Communicator Mobile Mobile access to intranet and extranet portals built on Microsoft SharePoint Server Enterprise device management with Microsoft System Center But the alliance aims to go "way beyond email and Office," says Nokia’s Executive Vice President for Devices Kai Öistämö. Microsoft and Nokia are focusing on communication and productivity apps (Office, IM, Sharepoint, OneNote), but the alliance opens up those 200 million Nokia smart phones to future Mobile apps from Microsoft, perhaps including Mesh (which will sync all apps across all devices). Update: Unfortunately, the alliance is only for the Office business and does not include Mesh, according to Microsoft.
