Regions available include India, Latin America and Europe. Thank goodness for developer preview or I’d still be on Lumia Black. Source: WMPU

Miracast Dongle in the works from Microsoft for wireless HD streaming

Miracast Dongle in the works from Microsoft for wireless HD streaming

| August 22, 2014 | 10 Replies

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 this […]

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 […]

  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?

Tentacles: Enter the Mind available Free in store

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 […]

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 […]
