Microsoft Corp. (MSFT) plans to launch a new software for mobile phones by the end of 2010, Chief Executive Steve Ballmer said Thursday, while commenting on its entertainment division.

The entertainment division makes Xbox video game consoles, Zune music players and mobile phone software.

“Fantastic things (are) coming with the Xbox to change the landscape between TV and entertainment,” Ballmer told reporters.

The company recently announced plans to reorganize its entertainment division with the division’s president, Robbie Bach, retiring this fall.

Microsoft had announced its overhauled operating system for smartphones, Windows Phone 7, in February.

New devices with the software are expected out this holiday season.
