Welcome to the PCW Product Reviews Newsletter
Microsoft is to discontinue Encarta, its digital encyclopedia, from
October 31st 2009. When it launched in the 1990s, Encarta was one
of the first multimedia applications to make use of the storage
capacities available from CD-Roms. Microsoft cites differences
in the way people now consume information as the reason behind the
move. The news follows Microsoft's decision to lay off the development
team behind its Flight Simulator series, another long-running
Microsoft product.

Skype is releasing a mobile version of its VoIP software for the
iPhone and iPod Touch, which will allow for free calls to other Skype
users. The application will can only be used when the phone is
connected to a Wifi network, a limitation that doesn't apply to VoIP
services on other handsets. Skype is already available for some Nokia
phones while versions for Windows Mobile and Google Android handsets
have also been announced.
