Sourced from Windows Phone Thoughts from an original article on CNET
Charlie Kindel of Microsoft recently gave CNET a demonstration of the WP7 interface showing off some new apps and the XBox Live hub. He also explains the primary tools for WP7 apps (XNA and Silverlight) and Microsoft's more specific direction for developers that'll make it much easier to build apps and extend them to the new Start page.

 Here's an interesting news snippet from Windows Mobile Thoughts:
"Different is often good. Especially when it's different for good reasons. Windows Phone 7 Series is different because we reset everything we were doing to focus on end user experience. This extends directly to the developer platform. Developers, designers, and producers of applications, games, and content these days are demanding that we be different as well. Over the last year we've had face to face conversations with 100s of developers all over the world about what we should do with Windows Phone 7 Series."
I think the above screen shot is fantastic, because it shows exactly how different Windows phone 7 really is - there's a strong sense of sameness as you move from left to right, but when you hit the Windows phone 7 user interface, you have to stop and take note that it's completely different from the others. Microsoft is taking a big risk by breaking away from the pack of normalcy every other mobile phone OS ... [Read More]

| A year in review - why I came back to Windows Mobile |

 "Hi Honey I'm home!" Well it's good to be back into the WM fold after straying away over the past year, first to the Nokia E71 with Symbian and then the iPhone 3Gs before coming back to WM with a bang via the HD2. My mobile device experiences over the past year have been an eye-opener for me in terms of what is out regarding choice and functionality, in a way that simply wouldn't have been experienced had I...

| Form Factor- musings on past, present and possible future. |

Nov 03, 2009 - 4:34 PM - by neilm

 Over the years since the advent of the Personal Digital Assistant, there have been a number of popular form factors, and this trend may be set for a shake-up over the next couple of years.
My personal involvement began in 1989 with the Microwriter AgendA, a handheld device with two lines of display and a unique method of entering text by the use of one handed finger buttons. It worked well but the limitations of its lack... [Read More]
