Windows Voyager smartphone ready for Xmas

We"re a day away from the launch of Orange"s new updated "Tanager" version of the SPV - but right on cue to spoil the party, someone has leaked the news of the much nicer one that will be out in a few months - the Voyager. With Bluetooth.

The crucial feature of the new phone is bluetooth, meaning that you can connect it to a standard wireless headset, as well as use it as a wireless modem connected to your PC, for data over GPRS.

For "marketing" and "branding" reasons, apparently, Microsoft has decided that the new one will be called, not "Microsoft" but "Windows". In other words, market research has showed that people like the "Windows" brand, but that the name Microsoft has negative connotations in the public mind.
