Windows Smartphone King HTC Buys Dopod
Jun 2 2006, 11:02am CDT | by Luigi Lugmayr
Taiwanese Smartphone manufacturer HTC (High Tech Computer Corp.) buys 50% of mobile phone vendor Dopod.
Dopod actually specialized to sell Dopod branded HTC smartphones in Asia. Apparently HTC wants to be closer to the market. Dopod will act as a subsidiary of HTC.
Kind of an intersting move to buy one of their customers. HTC is I guess looking for ways to leverage their domination in the Windows smartphone market.
We reported about Dopod introducing the HTC Startrek in China early May.
More details in this Reuters story.
