Microsoft says Verizon announcement will give CIOs more choices for mobility.

Scott Rockfeld, Group Product Manager of Microsoft's Mobile Communications Business, comments: "We are waiting to see the impact on how Verizon's decision will affect the way businesses manage their devices, but we do know it does give them choice and flexibility on which devices they decide to deploy. However, one of the most important determinations of how a business manages their mobile devices is the operating system on the phone and how that connects to a company's infrastructure."
