As Much As I Like Gizmodo, They Are Still Getting It Wrong!
Gizmodo posts lots of news. I read them often and I mostly like the detail and quality of their articles. Lately, they’ve been posting not only shallow, but flat-out technically wrong content about Microsoft news and products. Their latest gaffe was to claim that Microsoft is treading a dangerously similar path to the one that lead to the Department of Justice [Click for More]

Android + Zune = Awesome!
So, what happens when you cross an Android smartphone with the Windows Phone Music UI? You get Metro’s minimalistic UI in an Android app, and it looks just great!

Windows Phone Marketplace, Preparing the Field for Mango
It looks like Microsoft is preparing the field for releasing the Mango update or as it will be officially known: Windows Phone OS 7.5.

The Marketplace is divided at the top level [Click for More]

This is no news, out of curiosity I just did the exercise [Click for More]

No, We Are Not Done With Updates
I am not going to complain, especially because this means that we’ll be getting bug fixes, new functionality, etc… but if the information I came across is correct, then we are going to have a series of minor updates BEFORE we get the Windows Phone OS 7.5 Update (formerly known as Mango). The most recent [Click for More]

I couldn’t wait when I arrived home today… My phone (at&t’s Samsung Focus) had indicated that I had a pending update. So I fired up Zune Software with my phone freshly synced.

Reboot Loop in Windows Phone 7 Devices
Can near-full memory cause a reboot loop? This is the question I only could partially answer after I ran into a brick wall with my Samsung Focus. Mind you, I am still happy with it and at&t resolved the issue for me. This is something that is still keeping me puzzled, it happened Saturday a [Click for More]
Windows Phone 7 Updates… Where Are They Now?
I’ve had my Windows Phone 7 since launch day. It is a great phone, I did my research at the time, and choosing the Samsung Focus was the right choice. I am so happy with it, the Windows Phone 7 user interface never gets old, never gets slow. I love it. My carrier was already [Click for More]
