From the looks of it its a personal assistant. It collects the notifications, reminds you of things and also acts as a voice guide, search and command. Just like the Cortana in Halo. Damn, if its that functional, I can't wait for WP 8.1 to come....

They should also change the interactive voice to Cortana's voice....

Yeah great - lets just hope she doesn't suffer from rampancy after 8 years and start taking over the world.

I'm excited but I sure hope it is polished when released. Potential to create a big wow factor in the industry but they'll only get one shot to make a great first impression.

Yea i agree. Finding it strange that they still haven't reported on it yet.

But damn that's good stuff for cortana

If it uses Cortana's voice, I bet that alone would cause a huge spike in sales.

But I imagine that would be very difficult to do.

What bothers me about this is that WPC hasn't picked it up. I know our site isn't the beat all to end all, but since WP8 began to be a big news item, they only report on credible news that they believe is backed up by numerous sources.


I know only a little about this, but I think it would be a blast if this was true.
