BetaNews | at | by Mike
Microsoft is expected to announce a strategic partnership with Sprint that would highlight the company's Windows Live offerings, BetaNews has learned. Sources close to Microsoft say the two companies would initially offer Redmond's Windows Live Search as early as Thursday, with additional services to come.
Sprint's implementation is believed to not only allow for searching of location-based results, but also to search Sprint's own catalog of services, including ring tones and the like. Additionally, targeted advertising opportunities would be available for businesses.
