Starting today, Office 2010 is available for volume licensing in two editions, Office 2010 Standard and Office 2010 Professional Plus, specifically targeted at the small and medium businesses (SMB) and enterprise customers, respectively. Office 2010 Professional, Office 2010 Home and Business address the needs of SMB, while Office Home and Student is meant for home users. While the products would be available to business users from today, the retail (consumer) editions are to be launched on June 15.

Moreover, Office Mobile 2010 will soon be available on Windows 6.5 phones and a broad range of Nokia smart phones, starting with Nokia’s business-optimised range, E-series.
