Verizon Wireless chief financial officer
Fran Shammo said the company is looking to market a third
mobile platform to help develop a strong competitor to
Apple and
Google. That operating system will be
Microsoft’s upcoming
Windows Phone 8. “We’re really looking at the Windows Phone 8.0 platform because that’s a differentiator. We’re working with Microsoft on it,” Shammo said in an interview with
Reuters following the company’s
earnings call on Thursday. The carrier expects to have Windows Phone 8-powered handsets in time for the 2012 holiday shopping season. The executive suggested that Verizon could play a similar role in helping Microsoft’s platform to grow as it did with Google’s Android OS
