Last news we have is that it's been delayed. Nothing since. No news is good news :)

Andromeda has not been canceled. It's only been delayed so that the company can ensure a better product when it is ready to be released. Microsoft may cancel it in the future (as has always been the case,) but that hasn't happened yet.

There was always more to say about McLaren. There's nothing more to say about the Elite x3 on Verizon. It's coming, we've written about it coming. There's really nothing else to write. It being certified just adds to the fact that it's coming, which we've already written about. Looks like HP...

No, and that's why we haven't reported on it. You guys keep saying HP told you September, then mid-October. Is the device here yet? No. We want to report on accurate information. When it's on the front page, you'll know :)

We have been in contact with HP and will report on this topic once the device becomes available. We have already written about it coming to Verizon. We don't need to keep writing about that. Now, can you guys please act a little more your age? Thank you.

This is a known issue with the latest Insider Preview builds. There is no workaround.

Yes to both, at least Groove used to be okay with that. Pretty sure you could just copy the music off the SD Card, format, and then put it back where it's supposed to be, Groove should pick it up fine.

As far as I'm aware, you've bricked your phone. I also had this issue show up on my Lumia 950, and I had to send it back to Microsoft. Even they couldn't fix it and instead sent me out a brand new device. There's no way to recover from the sadface as of right now. Sorry to tell you. Were you...

Can you describe the bluescreen? Was it simply a blue screen with a ":(" on it, and no other info?

Surface Phone in 2017 seem very unlikely, there's a lot Microsoft needs to do to Windows 10 Mobile before a Surface Phone can happen, and I don't think the software will be up to scratch in March. I'd be more confident in saying sometime in 2018.

I believe this update may have broken tap-to-pay for some, other than that, this update feels fine, much like all the other cumulative updates :P

Not really, apart from some of the software issues. Hopefully they get fixed soon.

I think the Surface Phone needs to WOW to be a hit. I think digitizer support, Continuum enhancements and an actually "nice" feeling and looking handset need to play a part. The Elite x3 is good because of it's RAW power, and design is pretty cool tool. The 950 XL doesn't stand out much other...

Unlikely. HP is only here with a device running Windows 10 Mobile because their device is aimed at businesses. No need for a lite/mid range version. If they were, they'd likely go Android.
