Phone case - Lumia 800 Hi, I'm trying to find something that I don't think exists, a case for a Lumia 800 that's like an ipad case, you know the one that folds over. I'm fairly sure it doesn't exist but it would make my mum's day if I could find one so I thought I'd see if anyone here knew...

Surface Pro 2 - Wake on Lan - WIFI Hi all, I've got a Surface Pro 2 that uses wifi to connect to my router and get internet accesss. I've also got a Lumia 950 and I'd like to get Cortana to be able to turn on my PC remotely, this I believe is possible if I set the PC to use 'Wake On Lan'. My...

Thanks for moving the post! I guess it will have to be the Kobe desktop app then, I can't find a Nook app over on the UK store. Thanks, Nic

Hi, I appreciate this is probably better suited to a general Windows 8 forum but I couldn't find that - sorry. Anyway I wondered if anyone had a good alternative to Amazon's Kindle for Windows 8. I really wanted the Kobo app but I can't find it in the store, although I can see references to it...

No I've not, good idea, I'll give that a try. Thanks, Nic

Hi, I wondered if anyone had this issue with there SP2. I charge the device fully, use if for a little bit, check the battery and it's at 90%, that's all fine I think so I click the power button and close the lid. When I open it a couple of hours later it's at 70%. It's like the idle is not...

Hi all, I've just seen that Plants Vs Zombies 2 is available on the Google play store but why is the WP8 or Windows 8 releases? I would have thought that Microsoft had a good relationship with EA/Pop Cap as PVZ is released already and there is an Xbox One title to be released. Anyone any...

Hi, Yes it's only the Windows store app install that has the issues. Odd. However a restart of the machine appears to have resolved it and everything else is working well. Thanks for your advice. Nic

Hi, I'm having some issues with the app store this evening and I'm not sure if it is just me or a wider issue. My internet is working fine and I can browse pages and everything is normal however if I go to the app store then whilst I can search for apps, downloading them never seems to happen...

That answers that one, I thought as much but wanted to ask the question. Looks like it's the 620 for me then (for now). Thanks all.

One last thing, does anyone know of any reason why phones running only 512MB of RAM would not get any future updates such as 8.1? Are the differences in RAM limited to multi-tasking etc, not to the OS itself?

Thanks NorthantsPete.

I beginning to think it's going to come down to either 1) The 620, I know it's only got 512 MB of RAM but it's cheap, looks nice and I don't think it has any major issues regarding the RAM. Or 2) the 925, I'm not a massive fan of how the camera doesn't sit flat to the phone but it's a safe bet...

Firstly thanks for all the comments. They are all greatly appreciated. Chezm - I left WP for a number of reason, originally I had a Lumia 800 (loved it) then got the 820 but whilst it was a great phone it just kept breaking on me. I thought the quality of it compared to the 800 lacked, so that...

Thanks, I think your right in that I need to get in there and see what's on offer.
