Advertisements WP8.1 (at least with Cyan and appropriate hardware 930/1520) does wireless HD streaming. The 930 does this very simply and my TV picks it up quite easily (one of the only ways the Smart Feature has provided useful). Now, I don’t know why folks just can’t use miracast dongle from other manufacturers instead of waiting for […]
That wasn’t the main point of the video, but there’s potential there. When WP8.1 gave us the transparency tiles with parallax type wallpaper, some used blank coloured backgrounds to show simply the icons. In a similar light, these icons have been modified to appear as circles. It looks more like the generic smartphone homescreen. If […]
Tom Warren says that we will be seeing Windows 9 on September 30th. Along with this, there will be a combined Windows RT and Windows Phone which MS might take time to detail at the event. Early versions of Threshold is said to have Cortana built in but it’s not clear whether that would make […]

From the still named Nokia Philippines channel, they’ve got Jodilly Pendre, first runner up of Asia’s Next top model. No, I don’t know what’s going on here either. Whilst we’re on the subject of being clueless, what’s with the dubbing of this video?
This was one of my favourite games on WP7 and I’ve missed having it on WP8. I’m excited to play it. It seems that the environment interaction is more 3D than the previous 2D (or did I just never get through all the levels?). http://www.windowsphone.com/en-us/store/app/tentacles-enter-the-mind/d05c984b-7224-4892-ab64-d1a675e57c0f There’s a clone of the original tentacles game but I haven’t […]
Yesterday, I was challenged to do the ALS Ice Bucket Challenge. I wanted to challenge someone different. So I decided to challenge Marc Dillon of Jolla. Marc graciously accepted my challenge, and nominated Finnish Foreign Minister Alexander Stubb, F-Secure’s CRO Mikko Hypponen and Peter Vesterbacka from Rovio. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rbCs7k5tg9g If you’re interested, my video is below.

The Windows Phone version of HTC’s One M8 is compared against the Nokia Lumia behemoth, 1520. It’s interesting that they kept the name simply One M8 (for Windows). Folks will call both One M8 instead of losing the brand value by having it named something else. It’ll help perhaps when sales are mentioned. Here’s […]
There was an email exchange yesterday between controversial ex MS CEO, Steve Ballmer and new MS CEO, Satya Nadella. Anywhere Ballmer is mentioned, you get discussions either side of field that shows either his achievements or his blunders. The reason for leaving? He said that due to the multitude of commitments he’s taking on, it […]
