C|Net | at | by Mike
Microsoft has sold its stake in wireless software maker Wireless Knowledge, which the software giant and Qualcomm created together in 1998. Wireless Knowledge, which bought the shares from Microsoft, will become a subsidiary of Qualcomm, both companies announced Monday. Financial terms of the deal were not disclosed, nor was the size of Microsoft's stake in Wireless Knowledge. Southern California-based Wireless Knowledge is one of many wireless software makers selling ways to access corporate e-mail accounts or computer systems from wireless devices. The company markets its products under the name "WorkStyle."
