Sony reportedly pursuing release of Windows Phone device

Sony has already been linked to rumours of a Windows Phone device release. Now, the mobile chief of the tech company’s European division, Pierre Perron, told TechRadar they don’t plan on being a manufacturer for just one operating system. "[Working with Microsoft] is an interesting proposition for us in the PC environment, and we continue our engagement with them,” Perron said. "We are exploring this as part of our discussion in mobile space too. One thing is using the platform [Windows Phone] itself, and another is 'what can we deliver on top of it'?"

Perron, however, will not comment on a specific timeline for Windows Phone. He says discussions are still tentative.
