Microsoft apps for Lenovo

Microsoft announced a new partnership with Lenovo. Microsoft apps such as Office and Skype and Onedrive will be installed in Lenovo mobiles powered by Android Software. Exact details about the partnership is not yet revealed. The deal includes cross licensing that will allow patented Microsoft technology to be used in Lenovo and Motorola devices. It's said by Lenovo leader of corporate alliances Christian Eigen that their collaborations with Microsoft would take advantage of some of Microsoft's apps. The deal is significant though Lenovo is one of the largest manufacturer in China and also giving access to another huge market. There are only limited details available about the deal at this stage. They did not mention anything about whether the upcoming Lenovo will receive the pre installed software yet. Anyhow the deal will affect both Lenovo and Motorola. It's to be noted that it was not the first software deal that Microsoft has done with Android with pre loaded apps.
