    Are you a proud Windows user? Tell us why!

    #PCProud I am the only one in my office that primarily uses a Windows machine for work. It's not that dire. Coroporate requires everyone to have an assigned Windows laptop, but no one uses their assigned Windows laptop. They request newer MacBooks. When it came my to turn, I requested a...

    Looking for the most ardent Window Supporter, OG of the group

    A couple of preliminary observations.. 1. So far xandros9 and augustaville are the OGs! Didn't think I would see CE personal devices! :) 2. It seems Microsoft did a lot of marketing for WP8 and pretty much NIL marketing for Windows 10 Mobile:)

    Looking for the most ardent Window Supporter, OG of the group

    Re: Looking for the most ardent WIndow Supporter, OG of the group You remember all the kinds of accessories you can add to the Compact Flash Type II slot? I had a GPS Receiver (before they became integrated in today's devices), a 5GB CFII Hard Drive (still have it in a drawer), and the...

    Looking for the most ardent Window Supporter, OG of the group

    Re: Looking for the most ardent WIndow Supporter, OG of the group Even though PPC OS was built upon Windows CE, it is correct that Windows CE 1,2,3 can be a separate entity. But while CE technically did come before PPC 2000, it wasn't primarily a consumer facing device. A lot of bar scanners...

    Looking for the most ardent Window Supporter, OG of the group

    Been a while since I have posted. But wanted to get an idea of who amongst us is the most ardent Windows Mobile supporter. That can be taken in a couple of different ways depending on your point of view. I mean, it could mean the biggest dreamer, or the one with the most faith or the last one...

    Things missing vs other platforms that keeps me from coming back

    I have been on WM since HP iPaq,Dell Axim, HTC TyTN days. So I have seen functionality come and go 2-3 times over. Not sure many people will know what a Compact Flash Type II card is. Can't say I am missing any apps; my bank app is there, I have a voice app to control lights/security, I have...

    HP Elite 3X Specs + Features

    This is the only thing that gives me pause: - dual SIM card tray that can load dual nano SIMs or (1) nano SIM + 1 micro SD memory card Right now with my 950 XL I am running 2 SIMs AND a micro SD card. The Elite X3 would not be able to incorporate my extra storage needs if I use the tray for 2...

    HP Elite X3 Business phone = No Surface Phone?

    As far as the Surface Phone, I wouldn't proceed with it if I were Microsoft. If Microsoft proceeds, with the Surface Phone, it would create competition with the Elite X3 in the business area, depleting sales of the Elite X3. I would think Microsoft would want to support HP and not hamper their...

    HP Elite X3 Business phone = No Surface Phone?

    I really do not think that the HP Workstation will go to consumers as a license/subscription. This will require payment to HP from consumers themselves or Microsoft. What would be the purpose? So a consumer to pay $5 dollars a month to use some business x86 app that isn't yet on UWP, like...

    "Something that will blow your mind" what do you think this could be

    I hate to ruin the surprise... It is improved Continuum. One that allows Xbox to use Windows Mobile Continuum as a second screen. The Xbox one controller can now pair with Windows Mobile. Now with an Xbox One and Continuum WM device, you can play a two person game on two separate...

    Gabe is a tease! But at least we know he's alive.

    Re: Dual Release. I think Gabe could have kept that noteworthy tease to himself. Almost as bad as the new emoji announcement, but at least that wasn't teased as a new feature. Here I was all expecting Moible WaaS and patch updates from now on. Please Gabe, no more guessing announcements for...

    Looking Back to Windows Phone After Switched to Samsung Galaxy S6

    I now use a HTC One M9 as a temporary phone because I gave my 1520 away thinking that the 950XL was releasing on Oct 6. (Hindsight is 20/20) I find the UI archaic and the battery life abysmal. Not to mention 'insert service name here' has stopped responding issues. Can't fault HTC much for...

    Who's got build 10572? How's it working for you?

    Does anyone know if this enables the Android subsystem to install apks?

    Preorder thread

    It would be nice if you could preorder a 950 XL with one of those sweet metal and leather backs. I want to preorder, but not sure where/if there is one with a dock included deal somewhere.
