The company behind the Pocket LOOX line of Windows Mobile devices, Fujitsu-Siemens, will be out of the global handheld market by the end of the year. This according to Fujitsu-Siemens spokesperson Amy Flecher, who recently spoke with ChannelPartner.

Although not popular in the U.S., Fujitsu-Siemens handhelds have done well in other world markets. It’s been a while since anything new has been heard from the company, so today’s news doesn’t really come as a surprise.
