Now all we need to do is get Jessic Alba to post a video review on YouTube

It's a bit sad that some irrelevant celebrity could know more about Windows Phone 8 than most people here.

I'm sure the MSFT guys here will put us on that enthusiast list that will get updates before the carriers accept them... Right?

Thanks!

So Xbox Music is now today available for me and it works on my 360 already, but not on the WP7 and the Zune client. Any ideas?

It should still work in the Zune client and I should get the Zune music on WP7, no?

Only if you have a Zune Pass.

 

[ElNino]

Well, 7.5 and above would essentially include all WP devices but we assume that the 7.5/7.8 app will not be released at the same time as the WP8 one.

The Smartglass update for the Companion app is now avaiable! Sweet

Well, I guess my assumption was wrong.

 

[derFeef]

I have, it says so on my account, until 19th of November.

Did you check the FEDEX site for shipping information?

Not gotten any shipping details at all so i'm assuming i've been F'd in the A will call the ms store tomorrow and if it's the case it isn't due to the 2nd I may just cancel and get a lumia, all the negativity around RT and dev support is getting to me, at least nokia are balls deep in making it work

I used my Lumia 920 money to buy a Toshiba Ultrabook. Only $80 more than an unlocked 920. What the hell is wrong with me?

hey at least you'll get a cheap upgrade to windows 8

Couple more days till they blow the lid off of WP8. Can't wait to see what my options are for T-Mobile. Ativ s is attractive but the color and design is really getting to me. I miss my Zune =( might just have to roll with an ipod for my media. They have a yellow one and I'm mostly pointing to the 8x yellow too.

They've already got a hand on my wallet. Now I just want to know when I can preorder directly from AT&T and what day should I expect it. Hopefully preorders are Monday with Friday delivery!

I hope att and t-mo have better release dates then verizon's 11/12 date. I'm going on a vacay from 11/09-11/12 and it would be nice to have a pureview in my pocket.

 

[SCHUEY F1]

Wonder what the chances are that there could be some surprise devices?

yes, lumia 910/922 and the HTC Zenith aka 8Z.

3 days with Xbox Music and I can't live without it already, WP8 can't come soon enough because I can't sync my downloaded music to a Zune HD I have around here =(

 

[lastflowers]

Expect a 7.9 inch phone made by MS.

WHAT?!

lol, I'm completely kidding--jabbing at the iPad mini. I know nothing about the financial side of the division. I just work on software

So install SmartGlass, which is kinda cool, but doesn't run all that well.

Went to go back to playing a game.. and now my xbox doesn't register any discs as being in there. This kinda sucks.. not entirely sure why it would be related to installing SmartGlass.

 

[VanMardigan]

All this means is that I now have 3 weeks to come up with $600. And since my wife will absolutely NOT let me use our income to cover this, I have to sell all non-essential tech gear, barter (I'm offering everyone I know cold hard cash and my Focus S for their upgrade), and find a second job.

 

[Troll]

I liked using SmartGlass with the phone on IE. Pretty fun to zoom in and out with the screen.

Could just be a coincidence. My 360(old xbox) drive constantly doesn't read discs. I have to eject/close the drive multiple times before it reads the disc.

 

[bloodforge]

Can't get smart glass to work on my phone, keeps telling me it can't sign in.

 

[Totakeke]

Didn't notice before but Windows Phone games kinda show up on the Windows 8 store as well.

Seriously, Xbox Music is crack.

 

[JimiNutz]

Has YouTube randomly stopped working for anyone else?
My Omnia 7 (which admittedly is getting a bit long in the tooth) refuses to launch YouTube videos. I can browse the site fine, but when I go to press play the video just doesn't load. Been like this for over 24 hours now.
Maybe I should try a YouTube app instead?

I am going to Austin the 14th for formula 1 and would love to use my new 920 for for quick pics. I have started using my focus for pics much more recently and it doesn't really cut it.
