    [Mockup] Windows 10 Project (Please vote on UserVoice!)

    It's always cool to see how little tweaks here and there can add up to something much better. The transparency in particular is very nicely done.

    My Opinion on OEM standards for Windows 10

    Do you understand how the PC, tablet and phone markets work? Cheap devices make up the bulk of sales. How does it make any sense to mandate an active digitiser, Blu-ray drive and gesture sensors? Those are all niche features, they have no business being standards. Side note: 1080p adds nothing...

    Battery and Start screen questions

    The whole shell is removable, you can see the replacement shells on Nokia's site. http://www.nokia.com/global/products/phone/lumia735/#RecommendedAccessoriesWidget

    [L730\735] Is it a success?

    Yes, the 730 will fail because it doesn't have a feature that next to nobody knows about, let alone cares about. The self-importance in this forum is just pathetic.

    Windows phone 9.0. who's excited?

    Is it that hard to understand that a past event does not guarantee a future event under different circumstances? Do you go outside thinking that it is going to rain and a bird is going to crap on your head today because those events occurred yesterday? How is it possible to be so devoid of...

    GDR 1 Not Enough.

    What "wow" moment did the first Galaxy have? I only experienced disbelief at how blatantly Samsung had copied Apple.

    As a developer, the McLaren news is even more chilling.

    3D Touch isn't launching because it didn't have a purpose. You would prefer the average consumer to know about this device through scathing reviews in mainstream sites? The memos state that they are aiming to align major hardware innovation with Threshold. That is the right move, the 930 is no...

    As a developer, the McLaren news is even more chilling.

    So, things would be better if Microsoft launched McLaren with no good use for its hardware? Windows Phone needs to advance in core areas across all devices. That includes more expansive APIs, robust multitasking, better app performance and refined design (say what you want, it's been four years...

    Office for windows phone 8.1

    Consumers don't need to be patient with Microsoft. If Microsoft can't keep pace with the rest of the industry and can do no better than the complete embarrassment that is Word mobile, then consumers can and will opt for alternatives which are more popular and feature-rich. It isn't even about...

    About WP 8.1 developer preview

    Wait a day or two to see if others have any issues.

    Playing audio files... will they add important features in WP 8.1?

    You don't have to select from the dropdown, just type it in and save.

    March update improves type cover 2 multitouch?

    Off topic, but I have sweaty hands too and I'm curious. How is the keyboard faring apart from the touchpad issue? Is it waterproof, so you can just wipe or rinse it down? Ideally I'd like Microsoft to release a solid keyboard dock that can house a real touchpad and hinge, but that's probably...

    Playing audio files... will they add important features in WP 8.1?

    My comment was more about the lack of technical limitations on Microsoft's part. But I believe you can get them to show as podcasts if you edit the file tags to have the genre as "Podcast". I use Mp3tag. You should be able to drag and drop these files into the phone Music folder.
