Categories:

Microsoft announce Windows Mobile 7 – aka Windows Phone 7 series O_O

Categories:

by

Yeah, that’s a long name alright, but MS seems to have finally done it.  Check out their site as well the buzz from the people that were at the MWC in Barcelona. From the looks of it, it’s inspired/based on their newer Zune navigation UI (which is not a bad thing!).  Oversized fonts and a …

Looks like everyone and their grandma is talking about it so here’s the best place to get info.  Both Engadget and Gizmodo are liveblogging at the event and have some hands-on opportunities as well!  Lucky bastards!

Looks like Reuters broke the news overnight as Sony decides that due to “production related matters”, GT5 will be delayed from its original launch date in March 2010.  No new release date has been given, but GT5 was supposed to help bolster this quarter’s earnings.  I just want to play the damn game, but i’ll …
