We can see here that Microsoft’s mobile strategy is not limited to Windows Mobile. OneApp has just been announced by Redmond. A complete framework for delivering apps on a range of feature phones largely in emerging markets.

This solution deployed jointly will work to offload application processing into the cloud thus keeping on mobile phone footprint as reduced as possible, Microsoft is actually quoting 150k for the OneApp executable.

OneApp is currently running on Blue Label Telecoms of South Africa whereby users have access to Windows Live Messenger, Twitter, Facebook and RSS feeds, although more is being planned for launch across the globe sometime next year.

OneApp is based on web standards such as Palm WebOS and is compatible with S60 Nokia handsets, the Samsung U900 Soul and Sony Ericsson features phones.
