No, they won't. They probably would give me a more recent Android phone, but they just don't have any WP devices around for this purpose. Switzerland is iPhone country, and the rest buy Samsung Galaxy S4s and a few HTC Ones.

Maybe I should try an Android device, then I'd know what I am missing or not ;-)

Doesn't sound like fun at all...


It depends. You're not missing much with Android and in the price bracket the 8X is, you may not get anything 2013. Well, sounds like it is the Mozart then...

My coworkers can sometimes just be plaint adolescent in nature. Guess it helps for me to be a roll with the punches type guy or else they'd drive me to drink Wray & Nephew Rum nightly...

Of course saving pictures doesn't work for some unknown reason when I'm in a hurry. Why can't I just have Zune back?! Stupid Windows Phone 8 :(

Re: WPC 20K Post Challenge - You Ready?!

Yeah I've been on the forum for quite a while now. Wish I'd posted more sooner. Don't have as much time as I used to. A lot of cool people on this forum and it's easy going for the most part in my experience.

Maybe soon, you'll reach me. :D

Re: WPC 20K Post Challenge - You Ready?!

Do you SkyDrive your pictures?

I don't. I don't need all my pictures on Skydrive.

That was just an amazing experience. Went to the first Orange shop. "Well, we have to send it in, but we don't have any devices here we could give you. You'll have to try another store." So I went to the next Orange shop. "Well, we have to send it in." "Do you have a replacement?" "No, we don't. You could try another store [too far away for me right now] but they probably won't have any Android or iPhones left... only Nokia."

At least we know now how Orange Switzerland thinks about Nokia and Windows Phone.

Well then, I'll just have more restarts and errors until I can check the other stores.

Re: WPC 20K Post Challenge - You Ready?!

Are you going to keep you GPU for a while longer? You have a GTX460 right? I'm in the same boat as you, looking at a platform upgrade, but time and money is delaying it :p GPU and SSD seems like a quick fix for me now, but I just don't know.

Yeah I decided to keep my Graphics card for now, although I do have my eye on the AMD Radeon R9 270 (which is basically the 270X but with a slightly slower clock (easily fixed))

Here's my new Rig setup for anyone curious (built specifically for Gaming, Graphic Design and Photo Editing:

RAM:
G.Skill RipJawsX 16GB (2x8GB) DDR3 PC3-14900C10 1866MHz Dual Channel Kit

Re: WPC 20K Post Challenge - You Ready?!

The people at work today are infuriating me!

This was because one specific person wouldn't leave me alone, wanted me to chase the suppliers of her order in front of her. Had to call the supplier 3 times in one hour, knowing fully well there would be nothing they could do the get the order to the workplace any quicker.

The people within the office themselves are really nice to work with, but the above situation really took all I had not to shout at her lol.

I am also a bit interested in the AMD Radeon R9 270, right now I use the integrated graphics on my 4670K. I don't play games, but since it will be bundled with BF4 I might start :winktongue:
