There is a signal strength indicator

Just tap the top of the screen

Why do you have the right to know what patents they are infringing?

Are you building an android device for retail?

We as consumers don't have to know. We may want to know but just because nobody has told YOU what the specific patents are doesn't mean that there are no patents being infringed

"is the AMOLED screen and camera worth that differential?"

Iaving compared the HTC Titan with my Omnia 7, I would have to say it quite possibly is worth the bump in price.

I liked the look of the Titan's big screen, but I've been spoiled by the crispness and contrast of the Super AMOLED

To be fair

"2/ "Microsoft has invested for decades more money than anyone else in research and development directed toward the efficiency of operating systems"

Microsoft? Efficiency of the OS? I never thought I would ever see these two phrases in the same sentence! Some sort of Halloween joke maybe?"

To be fair though, he never said that they were successful

Google don't make money from selling Android, Microsoft do.

My biggest problem with start menus of Vista and 7

Is the stupid search box, so I can't press Windows, U to bring up the shutdown box

They could move all the market traders there as well

Isn't that what the Technomate TM-7102 HD-T2 Super does?

"not one person can PayWave on at all?"

I can. My debit card has PayWave built in to it.

Underbelly is pretty good

But as far as I'm concerned, nothing beats TAYG

I was of a similar opinion

I got myself a G1 from T-Mobile a few years ago and got so frustrated with not being able to upgrade past 1.6, regular crashes of core functionality (the phone "app" would occasionally crash when answering a call and would disconnect and lose the call details). I upgraded to Cyanogen 2.1 and it couldn't cope with all that.

I finally came to upgrade and vowed not to get caught up as an early adopter again and decided to get an iPhone, but my (now ex) girlfriend wouldn't allow any apple software in the house so I ended up getting the Omnia 7 and I've not looked back.

I do realise that all/most of my bad experience with Android was due to getting the first phone out there and not waiting for the first upgrade, but I'm happy with WP7 (despite the frustration of the NoDo upgrade, but considering I couldn't even upgrade my last phone to the latest version, it wasn't too bad). Roll on Mango!

Aye, it does seem to have a bit of a metro feel to it

You just get a handful of greasy food

It still tells you the error code on the BSOD

It does come with the option to hide it

"If you collapse the ribbon (double-click the tab, or click the Minimize arrow on the right side of the ribbon), you get even more vertical real estate with our new approach."

Shame

I already have a WP7 device so the sooner the better for me*

*I'm perfectly happy with it as it is, but I want the new features!

Which is why

MS offer protection for WP7 OEMs. Anybody sues the OEM for patent infringement, MS take the case

I thought they cut a load of it down to plant crops for biofuel!

RE: Zune Pass

Do you get 10 free downloads in the UK now? I thought that was US only

RE:2014

Nope, starts next year

BE77?

BE11 would work, also

Neil Morrisey

When he was on they went through the whole wine selection thing, but he didn't bother with the wine and had a pint with his food

That was my initial thought

But I think it's more to do with the fact that if you search for "email" or "calendar" etc, it prioritises the Google services

Maybe the year they got their first phone and have been using it on all of them since.

Or maybe first bank card etc

RE: AC @20:28

I was making a reference to the "Archer" TV programme, though I was obiously the only one that got the reference
