Microsoft Lync 2010 for Android is a new app that brings presence, instant messaging (IM), and the meeting audio capabilities of Lync to your mobile device. Lync for Android provides access to your Contacts list when you are away from the office, so that you can check your co-workers’ presence status and availability before contacting them. You also have access to the company directory, so that you can look up contact information, including additional phone numbers, schedules, and personal notes.
