Nokia (now MS) has been spearheading the Wireless charging front. It’s something I take for granted and use on a daily basis. The latest idea to the charging accessories is by way of having a cool soft glow. Instead of a small LED light that indicates it’s being charged, it’s now a lot more obvious […]

Next version of “Windows” to just be called….”Windows”

| September 5, 2014 | 3 Replies

Tom Warren from TheVerge suggests that the next version of Windows might just be called…Windows. Whether Windows Phone or Windows RT, there won’t be additional monikers to differentiate them. It’ll all just be windows. So gone might be the days where Windows Phone fans scowl at folks for calling Windows Phone 8, “Windows 8”. It’ll all […]

  Just recapping some of the things that might have been missed or that people are praising today. In Lumia Denim, there’s a 42 millisecond shot to shot time. That’s part of their stills extraction though which could be called burst mode in a way. You can activate this with just a long press of […]

Here’s Microsoft’s new accessory for easier screen sharing. Just tap (NFC) and go (on the tag) So easy, they’ve got a kid doing it. Works even on non lumias.
