Microsoft Stops Paying For Employees' iPhones

Microsoft's cost-cutting measures drove it to lay off thousands of employees and led to some perks being discontinued for its remaining employees - including no longer paying for their Apple Phone data service plans anymore, even if they're used significantly for work purposes.

Nor will it pay for Research In Motio BlackBerry service, or a new Palm Pre. Instead, it will only reimburse data plans for Microsoft Windows Mobile-powered smartphones.
