I have to ask this. Are there any non-marketplace apps out there? Any worth sideloading? Because right now it seems that the only thing chevron is good for is like to have file access and custom ringtones. Anyone care to shed more details?

I suspect the first update wont be coming in January. Mobile World Congress is from 14 - 17 Feb. Probably around that time or even after that.

Microsoft said NoDo to come in the 'first two weeks of March'. There are still 3 days left. *Tick Tock*

About the only hardware Microsoft can update simultaneously at one go, is the Xbox 360. Do you know why?

Like apple, the control everything, from the specs of the hardware to the Xbox Live servers. Little chance of there being a foul up. Apple knows that they only need to push update to at most 3 devices at one time, devices that are all the same spec and build.

Compare that to Wp7, which now has Dell, HTC, LG and Samsung putting out phone. One manufacturer decides to be funny (yes, I'm talking about Samsung), and bad press all around. So better to release in staggered fashion, at least if something goes boom, it is easier to rectify. Heck, if 4 months to wait for an update is too long, then go buy robot ler.

Oh wait. Some haven't got their frozen yogurt yet. whistling.gif

finally someone who actually has a clue how things work. and someone who actually knows how to compare apples to apples biggrin.gif
