Sorry but if you’re not in NYC you’ve been missing out on all the goodies. Green Day is putting on a concert (in connection with AT&T and Nokia) as a promotion for Nokia Music- the free music streaming app which is now available in the US for all Lumias (and I love it). The concert … Read more
Such crap, right? Just keep saying that this is the year that X is coming out and eventually you’ll be right (see iPad mini for likely example). Anyway, the so-called iTV (the guy that’s either a cable box or built into a tv with Siri features depending on which day of the week it is) … Read more
OMG a nearly unusable app just became legit. Here’s what Adobe is sharing about the 10.1 update to Reader which is going live as you read: We are happy to announce that a new version of Adobe Reader (10.1) for Windows Phone 7.5 is now available. We are excited to see this update, and hope … Read more

Mary Jo Foley knows all and she’s sharing with us. October 29 will be the official "launch" of Windows Phone 8, I am told. I’m hearing this event will likely be on the west coast, either in San Francisco or Los Angeles. (Again, I don’t know exactly where. A photo studio? Outside an Apple store?) … Read more

Looks like a pre-announcement for next week. The link to Bloomberg from the post provides more info. The lead in explicitly discusses next week’s Windows Phone 8 announcement and then this: JBL, a unit of Harman International Industries Inc. (HAR), and Nokia will develop speakers equipped with Bluetooth and near field communication, or NFC, wireless … Read more
Microsoft’s push to make their software available on other platforms has taken another step forward with the release of SkyDrive for Android. They didn’t go Metro this time either – they made it look Android (it hurts my eyes). This is a good move ahead of Windows 8’s launch so that they can keep all … Read more
Hey Microsoft, how about you just keep changing the way things are named and look? (Sorry no reason to keep harping on Metro and Live and Hotmail and…) Anyway the new logo for Microsoft is simple – It’s Segoe font and it’s entirely flat. A bit boring if you ask me. I like the old … Read more
Looks like Microsoft is going to help make it easier to get involved with politics. They just announced a series of ways that Xbox will help to get involved this election cycle. I think the best feature is the app itself: Microsoft will also be offering Election 2012 on Xbox LIVE, an immersive and interactive … Read more
