Yet another blurry video supposedly of ‘Cortana’ or at least what it might look like. Possibly a fake like the previous video and source. Possibly a concept.

Right now, it’s very robotic, like Siri.

Cheers Alvester for the tip!

Two of my favourite nominee submissions for the Nokia MVC campaign has got to be Topolino70 and DetkoDave.

Tommi Vainionpaa, aka Topolino70 is no stranger to the blog as we’ve showcased a lot of his work, from the N8, 808, E7 to 1020. Just stunning masterpieces of video footage and stills!

Skydrive Renamed to “OneDrive”

Posted: 27 Jan 2014 07:59 AM PST

DSC03256Last year we mentioned that due to a lawsuit Microsoft would be forced to rename their online cloud storage service, something besides the currently used “Skydrive”. It seems they have settled on the name “OneDrive” to be the new name for their service (in relation to the Xbox One), as well as being the ONE drive you need.

Check out their new promotional video for the renaming:

What do you guys think of the new name? Hot or not?

RED Nokia Lumia 1520 ‘unboxing’ gallery and quick comparisons (1020, 920, 925, 800)

Hi guys, a quick heads up on this picture ‘unboxing’/gallery of the Nokia Lumia 1520 RED. The unboxing video will come later. Cheers @Nokia_Connects for the trial.

First impressions – loving the handset. Although some find it big, I think this big-ass screen is perfect for me. I’ve been eyeing a phablet for a while and I’m appreciating the extra real-estate. Also there are little additions in WP8 itself that use up the space/resolution a little bit more (as opposed to just making everything bigger) i.e. more thumbnails in gallery, short excerpts in emails.

Sorry the post is short, teaching is starting shortly.

The keyboard of the 800 in landscape is smaller than the keyboard of the 1520 in portrait.1520IMG_2796 1520IMG_2797 1520IMG_2799
