Umm, the iPhone 3g (2nd one), was released 3 full years before ios5. That's hardly comparable to the current situation with the Lumia 900 and a fall release date for WP8. Your statement regarding...

This is the problem with buying a phone that is locked up tight. If you buy an Android phone in the same situation, it's usually pretty easy to find a tool to root the device and a then load an...

Seems like $99.00 is the right price if they want to try and win some market share. Priced less than the competition to hopefully win market share. Now, if they would only offer a 32 GB option for...

These is one of those products that seems to be a solution to a problem that doesn't exist. It's hard to imagine there are too many Boxee owners that don't have a TV that already has a tuner built...

This is interesting. The guy with the Galaxy Nexus doesn't really know the best or quickest way to do this challenge. If he had opened maps and then simply asked for "4 star Chinese Restaurant" the...

Seriously, if Windows Phone wants to compete with Android and iOS, then the OEMs are going to have to offer at least the option to purchase a 32gb (preferably 64) device,...

I'm hoping they finally see the light and release this with a 32 or 64 GB option. That would at least get WP7 closer to the competition in the hardware game. Of course now it's starting to lag in...

I agree that the lawsuits are way out of hand. Companies have decided they would rather litigate than innovate. Think how awesome iOS might be right now if they were directing all these legal dollars...

I think Microsoft still views the OEMs as their customers. Now to be fair, it's quite possible that they, the OEMs and carriers all realized that the first release of WP7 wasn't very competitive, so...

The marketing problem is primarily Microsoft's. They have never viewed the end-user as their customer, so very little effort (read $) is spent on attracting our attention. I think they have...

Wow, what a disappointment. Nokia has released some fantastic hardware running Symbian over the last year, but they chose to go completely low end for their first WP? I don't see the logic. What...

Well, I think 4.5" at that resolution would have made more sense. Also curious about the amount storage. I think we are still waiting for an official 32GB WP, aren't we? It's good to see at least...

Unfortunately, this seems to be the norm for WP7 devices more often than not. What's even more strange is how they feel the need to announce it so far ahead of availability, as if we will all wait...
