This is correct. The confusing point is that the Microsoft Account is named Hotmail by default in the phone. However it can be renamed to anything you like.

anyone can recommend a digital clock app that shows the current time in a live tile?

Yes. Mine like that too and I download Malaysia map last night. It's about 100 plus MB.

Yes, I was advised to set country as United States in Microsoft Account.

ha, this is better

thanks..

Will try later, happy already cos I found UC Browser (also from China).

I think it's a normal usb to mini usb cable since I used my Samsung usb cable without problem. Any IT or camera shop should have one.

If I download an app from the US Store, then switch my location back to Malaysia or Singapore, will I still get updates for that app? Or do I need to change back my location to US for it?

Suria KLCC third floor is good place to play phone. There got Nokia Samsung HTC and Sony shops that are all neighbours to each other.

I'm using Battery+ which shows % charge and estimated remaining time on a live tile that updates every 30 minutes. Not sure how accurate yet but it's a nice app at least.

Can we change the default browser from IE10?

yep i noticed that. i wonder if set the phone language to Chinese will solved it? or you're using that already?

The story there referred to North America, where L620 is not launched.

Need to check the quality of the headset jack too since that's built into the cover.

There's a good review of this handset on GSM Arena now.

Both the stock browser and UC Browser make good use of the screen space. I didn't feel it's screen is any smaller than the 4in screen of my Samsung, except the Lumia is more compact body and easier to hold and use with one hand.

Bad points :

No single column view for sites without mobile version.

Cannot see clock when browsing.

Is this why Nokia auto-hides the signal icon? You can't even pull it down when using the browser.

yes, and superimposed over the webpage content > look messy and difficult to read.

wp8 UI really need alot of improvement in all these small details that add up.

the on-screen menu button (if three dots can be called a button) is another story.
