Microsoft has been busy

Microsoft has plans to open a Microsoft Café in Paris. This café has been created to muster up some interest in Windows 7 and Windows products in general. The café will be equipped with different Microsoft products such as the Xbox and computers for the cliental to mess around with. Though the café will not sell any Microsoft products per se, they will have the general café fare of coffee and pastries. Because hey, it is France after all! The café will be open from October 22 and on, and will close a few weeks later. It’s sad to think that with all Microsoft does, the food business won’t become a permanent part of their product line. I would love to get up in the morning and have a Vista cookie and a cup of Excel coffee.

In recent developments, some photos of some very cool looking phones which have been jointly developed by Sharp and Microsoft have been leaked.

These Phones will run on Windows Mobile 7 which should be out later this year. Both devices sport a QWERTY keyboard and maybe even a touch screen with the lack of physical buttons on the face of the device. We will have to see what further developments come of these devices.
