Google joins the Exchange ActiveSync bandwagon

by Bharat Suneja

Google is the latest addition in a long list of Exchange ActiveSync (EAS) licensees.

In what may be one of the briefest press releases ever, Microsoft announced Google’s licensing Exchange ActiveSync as “a clear acknowledgement of the innovation taking place at Microsoft”. Google will use ActiveSync for its Google Sync service announced today.

After Apple’s embrace of ActiveSync for its iPhone, will Google add ActiveSync support to its Android mobile phone OS? The licensing agreement announced today does not cover Android, as CNET’s Ina Fried reports in Microsoft, Google in rare technology pact.
