About this deal

Both parties are delighted. Sendo has been operating for less than two years, and the deal gives it an opportunity to be first to market with a phone that has Microsoft massive marketing budget behind it. Microsoft is pleased: although it has been toting its software to cellphone manufacturers for several years, Sendo is the first OEM to bite. As it dryly notes in its filing:

From May onwards, says Sendo, Microsoft aggressively demanded technical meetings which extracted valuable technical and commercial information out of Sendo. Then demands got funny: Sendo claims that Microsoft demanded it cease all other development to ship the Stinker; and asked for an expensive and onorous test run of 300 Z100 prototypes. If an operator sees that his red phones are out-selling the rest, he can call us and we can deliver a new casing within 48 hours anywhere in Europe," says Thomas Leliveld, director of commercial operations for Sendo. Could the Nokias do what we are doing? Sure, they could, but they don't," says Mr Brogan. "A 100,000-unit deal for a Motorola is not significant. When the market is 420 million mobiles and these guys have 20% of it – so they are making 80 million phones – when someone says, 'Can you divert 10 software engineers on this (customisation) project?' it just doesn't represent a significant enough opportunity. But for a company like Sendo, 100,000 phones is, well, we get four of those and that's great." Many promotions and great discounts at SenMall booth such as: Rohto, Loreal, Anker, Sony, Senka, Sunhouse, JBL, Xiaomi, Logitech, Triumph, Unilever...

Welcome to Sendo Shopping App (Sendo.vn) - Vietnamese Market. Vietnamese People Choose Vietnamese Goods. Shop online with many Vietnamese stores, chain stores, and Binh Dan digital agriculture in Vietnam. How did it know? Well, meet Marc Brown, who was by now acting in his capacity as a Sendo board member while continuing his day job as the director of Microsoft's corporate development and strategy group. While Sendo's Software Store will be able to re-issue codes, a lot of items are going to need some negotiation with the original author. And while this is the way forward, and I know that it's going to happen, it's one of the few truly negative points about the handset. Summary – Why Choose the Sendo X? a b Klaß, Christian (14 February 2005). "GoForce 4800: Nvidia poliert Handy-Grafikchip auf" (in German). Golem.de . Retrieved 15 January 2011.

The first product, announced in Italy last week, is “technologically advanced” according to Brogan: “We want to show we’re not just another wannabe.” At this point Brown suggests that Microsoft convert the share deal into a loan, repayable in three stages, and in February (last year), Sendo agrees. Stinker still hasn't shipped, so Sendo can't sell a phone. Microsoft refuses to pay Sendo some capital that was scheduled under the earlier agreement, Sendo alleges, and by spring the relationship has deteriorated to the level of legal threats. However on the surface, all appeared to be cordial, and at a board meeting in May last year Brown pledged that Microsoft was "not working with anyone else as an 'initial go to market partner'".Magee, Michael 'Mike' (17 February 2003).

In the UK the first products should be offered through Virgin Mobile. Sendo was founded in August 1999 with an initial $10m of funding from Hong Kong telecoms company CCT. You must have a 5G enabled device on the Vodafone 5G network, a Vodafone 5G plan and 5G coverage in the area that you are in. Coverage may be affected by a number of factors.

First things first, this replaces the static wallpaper screen that most Series 60 phone have. While you can put a fixed picture as one of your Now! screens, that's not taking advantage of the flexibility it has. It's made up of various 'panes', where each pane is a function. One of them is the 'Today' screen equivalent. Another lists your favourite applications. And so on. You can add panes yourself, move them around, change the colours, in fact you can do pretty much anything with them. Sendo haven't stopped at just designing a killer phone, they've got a whole bundle of accessories to help you get the most from the phone.
