14 DAY TRIAL // Exchange Server 2007 is scheduled for availability concomitantly with Windows Vista and Microsoft Office. In fact, CEO Steve Ballmer will preside over the release of Vista, office 2007 and Exchange 2007 at the New York's Nasdaq stock exchange marking the "Microsoft's New Day for Business" on November 30, 2006.
Microsoft Exchange Server 2007 is the first application shipping from the Redmond Company designed exclusively for 64-bit. Bob Muglia, Senior Vice President, Server and Tools Business explained recently that this was by no means an easy decision for Microsoft, and that - in the end - it was additional benefits in availability and performances that acted as a sufficient argument to tip the balance in favor of the 64-bit version only.
In anticipation of the official release, I came across an array of Microsoft resources designed to give language nuances to exchange Server 2007 unified Messaging. The Unified Messaging Language Packs for Exchange Server 2007 Beta 2 explains the title.
"Use unified messaging language packs to allow the Exchange Server 2007 system to speak additional languages to callers. These downloads contain pre-recorded prompts, such as "Welcome; you are connected to Microsoft Exchange" in the language specified by this download. Language packs also enable text to speech translation," stated Microsoft.
No less than 14 language packs have been made available by the Redmond Company. As yet, they are designed to integrate with Exchange Server 2007 beta 2, but I am sure that Microsoft will update them in the eventuality that the language packs are not already compatible with the final version.
