Microsoft completes Danger acquisition
Microsoft has just announced that its $500 million acquisition of Sidekick-maker Danger has been completed, resulting in the creation of the Microsoft Premium Mobile Experiences division. What exactly does that mean? Well, it's not exactly clear. Premium Mobile Experiences will fall under the Mobile Communications Business unit, itself a division of Microsoft's Entertainment and Devices Division.
