LG Cuddles Up To Microsoft New Windows Smartphones + Tablets Tipped

By David Richards| 25 Sep 2014


	The Korean Company who signed a memorandum of understanding (MOU) with Microsoft this week to jointly develop products for the Internet of Things (IoT) is looking to partner with Microsoft to deliver Windows enabled devices including automated products that talk to a Windows based OS. According to a report by the Korea Times, LG Electronics plans to take advantage of Microsoft’s patented cloud computing platforms and release compatible products for both the consumer and corporate sectors. Some of these devices are expected to be revealed during CES 2015 in January. “All of the things in the Internet were dedicated devices such as PCs, laptops and mobile designed to help users to communicate and form a network to share information. These benefits of networking and sharing information led to the rapid growth of the Internet. We hope to gain initiatives and believe the expanded partnership with MS will pave the way to achieving the goal,” an LG executive said. Microsoft is expected to reveal Windows 9 on September 30.
