So, basically what Google Now has been doing for 1+ years? Cool story bro. When can we get actual useful features that aren't just playing catchup with Google/Apple?

Don't get me wrong, I'm no Google sycophant, but not an MS one either. I just like WP and Xbox and it pains me to see WP so far behind...

So basically if some platform introduces something new to the platform but is already in existence on another platform its considered "lame" or "cool story" as how you like to put it. Well then I will present to you base on your own logic. Long before the number pad was put on phones we have the circular dialer where you would stick your finger in the number you want and rotate the dialer and it would turn.

So every since the modern number pad made its debut it has been the same for all these years. Therefore every phone in the past 10-20 years have all be "lame" or as you like to put it "cool story" because its nothing new and has been the same on a different platform.

Here is another one, all mobile phones are lame because ever since the cordless phone there has not been much innovation so therefore all phones are just "cool story" because well you know, cordless and not psychic brain wave powers.

As an aside, I installed the WP8.1 update while I was on a three-day business trip. For about a week afterwards, Cortana kept popping up a map of the hotel where I had been staying asking "Is this your home?" I kept telling her "no," but would get the pop-up again the next day. She never guessed even after a week of me being back home, where I actually lived until I manually typed it in for her.

So, good for guessing, needs some improvement on the learning aspect.
