Default Off to the MVP Summit



Today I leave for the MVP Summit, along with Ed and Janak. We'll have several days of meetings, product briefing sessions, and opportunities for feedback with the people who make decisions about where Windows Mobile is headed. Normally I'd be asking the community for feedback on the things they'd like me to bring up, but I'm not going to do that this year: I still have my list from last year, and a list that I keep updating myself...and none of the issues have been addressed in Windows Mobile 5. :? So I'll bring up the same issues and hope this year, unlike all the others, someone will understand that they really are important. ;-) What I would be interested in hearing are Windows Mobile 5-specific issues that don't exist on earlier versions of Windows Mobile. That would at least give me something new to talk about. :lol:

Darius, Jon, Ekkie, and Jonathon will be holding down the fort here - be nice to them! ;-)

It's been a year already?! Have a great time guys, and of course feel free to give us a few hints of what goes on behind the scenes.

I hope you guys come away with a few treats... maybe a free Wizard so that we can see more reviews.

A year-and-a-half actually -- it was in April last year.

Ha. I wish. :P

Nevertheless, hopefully we'll have some good feedback and information sessions. We'll be sure to keep you posted on the things we're allowed to keep you posted (which, admittedly, may not be that much; time will tell).

Ah really? Seems like you guys just asked for ideas to take to the summit. I've been here too long. :lol:

Forgive my cynicism - but doesn't it ever seem... well... a bit pointless?

The WM team seem like nice guys - and WM isn't a bad product by any means - but time and time again they are told, by active users, some pretty basic things that need fixing. Yet - it never seems to make a difference.

Ok here you go:

1) Where/when is the A2DP Bluetooth profile in the MS Bluetooth stack?

2) Where/when will WiFi be added BACK into Activesync?

3) Is there an update to Voice Command coming that actually works with Bluetooth?

4) Why doesn't the little "x" work....or has that been asked before.

Have fun!

Dave

Jason,
Maybe you've already shared your list with everyone before here in the past.. but could you share your list of things that are important from last year that weren't addressed? Just interesting to know where other people with influence feel the platform should be heading in.

I don't think the Thoughts server can handle it.
