Microsoft to announce new device on Thursday, Oct. 30th

[TheZuneLune]

I just picked up a SP 3 at the local Microsoft store and the manager pointed to a bunch of little boxes and told me they were announcing a new device tomorrow and that it was not a phone. He said he had no clue what they were but said they had a conference call tonight at 9:00 for training. I think it has to be the smartwatch.

Hm... Having experience working as a sales representative, I'd suggest to not trust them However I will not be surprised if MS will really announce tomorrow the device, which was rumored for a long time.

Omg please let it be more than a smart watch. A new Lumia. For att preferably

I wish they will, but the phone announcement will likely have at least a tease with an invitation to the unveiling event.

When has Microsoft ever released something on the day that it was announced?

I'll save you the Bing search: Never.


EDIT: Bravo, MS! How refreshing. That wasn't so hard, was it?

 

[Silviu Bogusevschi]

Nobody was talking about releasing, only announcements.

Don't break my heart, please be true.

Wasn't there a rumored Lumia 830-Fitbit co-promotion?

They're announcing a new device on a Thursday? That's kind of weird, thought Microsoft liked Tuesdays.

 

[TheZuneLune]

He said NOT a phone and they will start selling tomorrow.

$60 says the boxes contain wireless display adapters. Any takers?

It's just a neon sign that reads "Coming Soon (tm)" $59.99

Do you really think the manager would not have taken a peek at what was in the boxes. Could be the wireless display adapter. Or the big (but its little) thing that has been COMMING to Microsoft for the past few months. Or it could be ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

I don't think they would call it the "My Band". Mind you, "Apple Watch" isn't any better...

He said announced and released...tge wireless display was already announced. It is becoming clearer that it is the Microsoft Band...hope that is not its name.

I'm hoping for "Lumia Band" or "Microsoft Lumia Band"
