I'm not sure what was so exciting about this announcement since Mini-PC styled Windows 8 PC's have been around for at least a year now. Acer, Asus, Lenovo and HP all have made one. At $215 ($35 more than the HP Stream) Asus's PC gives you 4GB's of RAM, a 500GB Hardware, what is likely a better...

Personally I really love the design/implementation that this developer did for his Windows Phone 8.1/9 Concept. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tRVC4BKWaP8 I think it features a lot of really nice features and design elements and it brings a lot of the swipe gestures used in Windows 8 PC's to...

I have a retail copy of Windows 8 Professional Edition. I used it for a couple of months and upgraded it to 8.1 and used that for awhile. Over time I had a lot of weird compatibility issues that had something to do with the hardware so I downgraded back to Windows 7.

I'll definitely be using it, but depending on how much it costs I might hold off for awhile. I ended up going back to Windows 7 after I used 8.1 for a couple of months so if Windows 10 costs the standard $100 I don't think I'll jump in Day One.

Any chance we see new Windows Phones at CES or is that unlikely before the release of Windows 10?

Yeah it's surprising that Microsoft still hasn't shown off a new Flagship device yet and the fact that we haven't heard any rumors in the pipeline makes me think they aren't going to be releasing anything new for the rest of the year. That's nothing short of a disaster in my eyes. They've...

As someone who's used Windows Phone before and mostly sat on the sidelines I'm pretty disappointed with how Microsoft's managed it this year. Originally it seemed like there was a huge buzz around Windows Phone 8.1 about how it would change the game for Microsoft and would show that Microsoft is...

Sounds like you don't want an alternative at all. Two great options but you don't like them for no good reason.

Yes you can as they both take the same sim size you can change the sim cards out yourself.

Amazon also has it in-stock if you want to take that route. I ordered one from them since AT&T was forcing me to add a plan. Amazon.com: AT&T Nokia Lumia 635 - No Contract GoPhone: Cell Phones & Accessories

I don't mind Microsoft wanting to improve Bing, and I'm sure Bing will be fine. My major concern is this is just another reason for Google to say FU to Microsoft.

No unfortunately you cannot redeem Xbox Credit for Xbox Live subscriptions.

Posted this on some other sites online and noticed it wasn't on here. Newegg has an Assassin's Creed 4 Xbox digital Card for $40. This card has $60 worth of Xbox Credit on it which makes it Spend $40 get $60 or about 33% off a $60 card. This credit is good for anything on the Xbox One/Xbox 360...

Gimmicky Kinect focused stuff isn't a massive bomb that would upset the world. Not to mention that would be expensive as hell and drain battery like crazy (When Cortana alone already does that well enough). Finally I don't think that's it because that would have to be on completely new hardware...

Android apps on Windows Phone would certainly be exciting as the app situation is probably the worst thing the OS has going for it at the moment.
