i’m starting to love windows phone 7’s ui

Posted by matthew on 15 Apr 2011 / 1 Comment

I don’t know if is the inter­mit­tent bug­gi­ness of my Droid X, or just my inter­est in design, that led me to be much more open to all mobile oper­at­ing sys­tems. I’ve been tak­ing a look at the iPhone more now since it’s avail­able on Ver­i­zon. While no knock on iPhones, gen­er­ally, the UI feels […]

A num­ber of my friends seem to think that I am anti-Apple. Noth­ing could be fur­ther from the truth (well…outside my dis­dain for the very restric­tive  ecosys­tem).

windows phone 7 drawing near

Posted by matthew on 06 Sep 2010 / 0 Comment

It seems like an eter­nity, almost two years, since Microsoft talked about launch­ing the next gen­er­a­tion of Win­dows Mobile. Since the first whis­pers, the update has taken a dra­matic turn, includ­ing a rebrand­ing — Win­dows Phone 7. At long last, it appears the launch is draw­ing near.  The offi­cial word is still ambigu­ously just  “fall,” though […]
