Don't you just love setting up your smartphone? Entering account details, downloading apps, putting all the settings just the way you like them? Isn't this experience so wonderful that you want to do it twice?

Wouldn't the smartphone experience just be so much better if it had two entirely different sets of apps? Apps that couldn't talk to each other, didn't even acknowledge each other's existence? Apps that burn up the already limited smartphone storage?

And who doesn't relish the opportunity to reboot their smartphone several times a day to switch between operating systems?



Indeed.

Trusted Reviews, speaking to Huawei, is reporting that dual-boot smartphones running both Windows and Android will hit the US market some time in the second quarter.


Of course. With those glowing numbers of shipped units the shareholder revolt gets put off a little while. Patent lawsuits can be filed and more games played. Reminds me of another company. Perhaps a different CEO should have been picked:

I'm sure he would have been happy to give all the support he received from MS in the past. Those who can't innovate, litigate.

We have special settings (very unusual ones) because we are in the process of moving paranormalstories.com's old database into one and the same in here. (big plans) There are also several other "invisible" forums in here for certain people which will remain invisible for a while longer... anyway, in the midst of it all, we found this tiny little security bug so we had to disable the 7-minutes editing time, at least for now until we are done with the background work.


You gotta do what you gotta do. Understood! ::thumbup::

The Times of India reports that Microsoft is waiving the Windows Phone license fee for two Indian phone makers - Karbonn and Lava (Xolo).


How long do you think it will be only the two of them?

It appears at least one phone maker, Karbonn, will offer a "dual-boot" phone with both Android and Windows Phone.


Ah! That's the game, huh? That way MS's little whores, IDC and Gartner, can say Microsoft shipped oh-so-many Windows Phone units. Cute! <sarcasm>The world is just dying for a dual-boot phone!</sarcasm>
