There are really 3 problems with WP7. 1. Lack of advertising. it has been 6 months since i have seen a windows phone commercial. I have never seen a Lumia commercial. 2. Lack of Apps. They need to give away the SDK to developers and give them incentive to build windows apps. Nothing is more...

The problem is not the OS or even the Phone hardware. The problem is poor marketing and application availability. Microsoft needs to do 4 things in order to gain market share. 1. Make the WP7/8 developer kit free and available to everyone. 2. Don’t take a percentage of application developer...

To me a patent troll is a company that doesnt make anything (ie. RAMBUS) and just creates patents so they can sue people that create something similar. RAMBUS whole busniess model is based on that. Microsoft on the other hand does make products. some are great (Windows 7) and some bad...

it work on my Samsung Focus v1.3. i had to force the 3792 update, and repeat the process for the 7403 update, but after 7403, it automaticly updated to 7720 (Mango). It took about 45 minutes to force all the updates. it would have been faster if i had wiped all my data off it first. but in all...

I for one am actually looking forward to this tablet. I work with BlackBerry phones on a regular basis at my job and I must say I hate the blackberry OS. Android and WP7 are far superior to BB. hell even IOS is better that BB. When i first saw the Blackberry tablet, all I could think was how...

I am Just waiting for the headline.... Microsoft sueing Boing over android IP infringments.

I have been running a Samsung Focus with WP7 for about 3 months. I love this phone. the number one complaint most people have about thier phones is that it has crappy reception or the volume is not loud enough. I think that a the number one priority of a smartphone, reguardless of the OS...

I think what most people forget is that a lot people hated XP when it was first launched. because it would not run thier old DOS programs or games like 9x would. lots of people "upgraded" to win 98SE. same thing with Vista. a lot of people hated it but when i ask someone why they hate it, the...

I am a huge KISS fan, but TV's? really? I would by a 46" Sharp Quatron, for 1200 at Best Buy, and spend the other $188 on tickets to see them on the "Were never, ever, ever never going to tour again, and we really mean it this time tour "

meh102This report just in: Microsoft should separate from Ballmer... I think Ballmer has been successful at microsoft. sure there were miss steps, (windows mobile, Vista) but dont forget his successes (Windows XP, Xbox 360) the one thing Balmer does well is learn from mistake. when Vista...

I heard how bad both episode 1 and 2 were, and didnt pay to go see them. I went to Revenge of the sith just so I could see him become Darth Vader, it didnt suck, but it wasnt that great either. I saw the marathon on Spike. glad I dint pay to see those. I wont pay to see that crap in 3d either...

Travis BeaneHow about magnesium for the bulk of the metal? About 2/3 the weight of aluminium. Then use tungsten for the gears/whatever has a high amount of strain.Magnesium is apparently easier to machine than aluminium, and is rather cheap.Tungsten may be difficult to work with, but it'd be...

In Arizona you can openly carry a gun to just about any where. if i remember right, I think schools and goverment buildings are the only things off limits. You can go the the 7-11 with a gun on your hip and no one will say a word. also people know not to screw with you when everyone is packing a...

I think the real problem here is how people are allowed to do background checks on people in the first place. denying someone a job because they got drunk when they was 21 and posted a pic of their ass on Myspace or facebook should not be allowed. they should only be allowed to check to see...

Apple needs a scapegoat after the Iphone 4 debarcle. first the one of his dumbass employees left one in a bar, then it shows up on gizmodo, which forced them to launch it early. because all the competitors knew what was comming and were looking to leapfrog apple. because they launched it half...
