Weekend Watch: W10 keyboard on phones

Advertisements Mark demoes the new keyboard in Windows 10. It looks mostly familiar but there is a new dot cursor and mic button.

WindowsPhone to end “Rooms” support by March 2015. Something new for W10?

This video shows off booting 5 different OSes on the Nexus 5. Why? Why not :). Never heard of FoxHound, I thought it was the title of the song used. Does Sailfish stand out? FireFox OS looks like the last thing I’d want to use.

He says however that they’re close to selling it. 2M electronic equipment was made there last year, 50% exported.
