Lumiapps: Remote Desktop app from Microsoft (WP8.1)

| April 23, 2014 | 5 Replies

Advertisements There are quite a few desktop streaming apps available on WP. I use Splashtop and PC Remote Pro. MS has launched their free Remote Desktop App. I haven’t had a chance to get it to work yet but it looks promising.

Since the Nokia-MS deal is due to close on the 27th and the tax disputes likely won’t be resolved regarding the Chennai plant, if left to Nokia then the plant might be put on sale at a later point. If placed for sale to a third party other than Microsoft, it appears that HTC would […]

  In this comparison by Clove, I was hoping by now they would have updated their video because when it reaches the camera, it bothers to mention UltraPixel but not PureView. I guess there’s really no mention of the depth camera for the M8 either. It reserves this later on to discuss “Camera Features” where […]
