Microsoft has been increasing its share in the handheld OS market, recently signing on major manufacturers such as Dell Computer as hardware partners. More than 30 manufacturers currently use various versions of the Pocket PC operating system in handhelds. The software giant remains the No. 2 player in the market, behind Palm.
The handheld market has seen shipments slide over the last couple of quarters, partly as a result of major player Handspring shifting its focus from handhelds to combination organizer-cell phone devices. But other big names such as Dell and Toshiba, which both use the Pocket PC OS in their devices, are slowly filling the void, according to data from research firm IDC.
In the first quarter, Dell shot up to the No. 4 spot, with 6.5 percent of worldwide shipments, from No. 11, and Toshiba picked up 3.6 percent of the market. Toshiba managed to increase shipments 306 percent in the first quarter from the same period a year ago. Handspring fell in the No. 7 spot, with 2.9 percent.
Magneto, the next version of Microsoft's Pocket PC OS, is expected to include improved phone features, such as more intuitive dialing capabilities, and will likely be more flexible so that it can be used in a wider variety of devices such as appliances.
