Microsoft Apps to be Available for Symbian Belle

Nokia’s cooperation with Microsoft doesn’t refer to launching Windows Phone-powered smartphones and only. Now we have learned Microsoft Apps will run on Symbian Belle-flowered handsets, too. Microsoft Apps include Word, Excel, PowerPoint and OneNote. So you’ll enjoy full Office functionality on your phone.

These applications will be soon available. As it was announced at Nokia World 2011 in London, Microsoft will be launched via two updates. The first batch will include Microsoft OneNote, for detailed note-taking; Microsoft PowerPoint Broadcast, for showcasing your presentations over the internet; Microsoft Document Connection, for managing files stored in the cloud; and Microsoft Lync 2010 Mobile, for staying connected with clients and colleagues. The second batch will bring native support for Word, Excel and PowerPoint documents. The last one will be pushed out in the first months of 2012. So before the end of Q1, 2012, all Symbian Belle devices will let you easily create and edit Office files.
A thing like this is being done for the first time. Nokia’s the first to bring Microsoft Office tools “as native applications” outside the Windows platform. So handsets like the Nokia 700, 701 and 603 (the 600 was canceled, so it’s out of the list) will be in a rather enviable position when launched.
