When launched on the market in the fourth quarter of the ongoing year, Microsoft's Windows Phone 7 operating system should come bundled with a nice range of services, including Windows Phone Live services. All in all, the service should be similar with what the currently available MyPhone service offers on Windows Mobile 6.x handsets, though a series of changes would still be there, including the fact that the service is now free of charge.

Of course, other differences are also there, including the fact that users should be able to upload pictures to their Windows Phone 7 devices without the need to compress them, at least this is what a recent article on mobiletechworld states. Other features of the service include OneNote files automatically synced to Skydrive, Office Docs synced with SharePoint servers, and more. However, there are some suggesting that the syncing option might not become available right from day one.

While this service would be aimed at end users, Microsoft is also gearing up for putting in place services aimed at business customers, while also aiming at offering developers a helpful hand for the building of enterprise solutions for the upcoming platform. A recent post on Rob Tiffany's blog brings to light a video overview of the building of end-to-end Enterprise/Internet-Scale solutions. He announced a Windows Phone 7 Line of Business App Dev series of blog posts, and the first one brought along the video (from Tech Ed) embedded at the bottom of this article.

“My goal in this series of blog posts on Windows Phone 7 Line of Business App Dev is to take you beyond simple examples and show you how to build end-to-end Enterprise/Internet-Scale solutions. This means that you will need more than the Visual Studio 2010 Express for Windows Phone Beta. You will also need Visual Studio 2010 Professional or a higher to build the server-side code,” he notes. According to him, developers interested in the building of large-scale solutions with Windows Phone 7 should keep an eye on his posts.
