Steve Ballmer to do Mobile World Congress 2011 Keynote

December 4, 2010 | By Surur

At Mobile World Congress 2010 Microsoft officially unveiled Windows Phone 7, after maintaining impressive secrecy all throughout its development.

Now Steve Ballmer will once again deliver a keynote at the global mobile phone industry meetup, and we hope will take this opportunity to inform us a bit more about the state of Windows Phone 7.

Likely announcements at the event could be a next generation of devices, new OEMs and the second chassis design of Windows phone 7, with a more Blackberry-like form factor. Hopefully updates to the OS will not have to wait for the event to be pushed out to our handsets.

Do our readers have a wish list for Mobile World Congress? Let us know below.

Thanks Javo Guajardo for the tip.
