    Now App Gap Is Starting To Be an Issue...

    I have retired my WindowsPhone to the home music streaming department. No Sim just Wifi streaming Spotify and Slacker. Like Blackberry, WP is too shy on apps to even use as a backup phone for me. I use a BB10 phone for business and an Android for the personal line. That is a good combo for me...

    Season Of Hell For Windows Phone

    I've spent a lot of time and effort with WindowsPhone 8.0 and 8.1. I have also spent a lot of time and effort with Androd (from 2.3 to 4.4), with iPhone up to 8.4 and with my BlackBerry 9900 OS 7. Sorry, I don't do BB10 - maybe some day. I like BIS for my company business. I converted to...

    So tired of carrying three phones! Come on windowsphone!

    OK. I love WindowsPhone. I've posted this repeatedly in many threads here. I was an early adopter and I stuck with it through thick and thin. Yes, I am slightly concerned that we are attaching ourselves to a sunset product, but I hang in there because, to me, the OS is simply the most...

    Do you love coffee?

    I did not start drinking coffee until I was about 30. Over the next few years, I ramped-up to about 1 pot a day. Sometimes more. I became ill about 4 years ago and one of the things I have to watch now is caffeine. UGH. So I'm back to about 1 cup a day. I really should give it up, but I...

    Season Of Hell For Windows Phone

    My Pleasure. Those of us that truly adopted and like WindowPhone have to stick together and discuss positives and negatives about the brand, or in fact it will continue to decline. As I typed earlier, I do tell everyone in my circle that I like my WindowsPhone. If I can get them to at least...

    Season Of Hell For Windows Phone

    The OP's post was clear, concise, and resonated. I think it's been a tough year for WP and will continue that way for a while. My "opinion"? First, I'm no stranger to being on a down-trending platform. I still own a BlackBerry that I don't use, but can't, for some reason, yet part with. I...

    Switching platforms? | Thinking of leaving?...comment here!

    re: Switching platforms|Thinking of leaving...comment here! I have to admit, I love Windows Phone 80 percent of the time. But at times, it drives me crazy how basic functionality that I think would be a staple of a phone platform does not work on Windowsphone 8.1. A good example is...

    Like my WindowsPhone but do miss my Blackberry because;

    I like my WindowsPhone. I really do. I was one of the early adopters. I was even more excited when I FINALLY got my T-Mobile 8.1 update with Cortana. Cortana is very nice. I had an iPhone 4s and have experience with Siri, and I do like Cortana better. But I still have my old BlackBerry...

    Why am I not able to accept GoToMeeting Invitations on WP 8.1?

    Issues with Accepting GoToMeeting Invitation on WP 8.1 Is anyone else having any issues with accepting GoTo Meeting Invitations on WindowsPhone 8.1? I am used to BlackBerry's seamless acceptance. "YES" to the Accept, and BBerry puts it in your calendar with Links to the GoTo Meeting website...

    After years of BlackBerry, and Android, Just bought a Nokia 521

    And finally today, I realized I no longer prefer a physical QWERTY Keyboard. I can't believe I actually just typed that. YES, I actually PREFER my Nokia WP8 Virtual Keyboard over my Legacy Berry's Physical Keyboard. Good Lord, alert the media. The WindowsPhone Virtual Keyboard has me spoiled...

    After years of BlackBerry, and Android, Just bought a Nokia 521

    It's become my new "Lean On" device. I used to lean on my Berry. That is, when the going got rough, I pulled out the Berry and got business done by really leaning on it. Flights, schedules, Twitter posts, Linkedin, emails, texts and phone calls all flowing through at the speed of light. I...

    After years of BlackBerry, and Android, Just bought a Nokia 521

    It's been a while for me now with the 521 and I can report that I'm loving it still. I tried going back to my BlackBerry last month and only made it a day. The keyboard was too small, the screen too small, and I hated not having touch screen control. I used to love the BBerry trackpad, now I...
