Is the Exchange client on Android possibly horrid? I've only used the regular stock IMAP client, but that was never very good, lagging behind the GMail app severely in terms of both features and polish. Maybe Android is the main reason?

Also, I'm sure Microsoft would prefer their branding on any Exchange clients, just to stay in the execs' heads every time they check their e-mail... it's built in retroactive marketing that keeps their clients locked in.

Hell, even 5GHz WiFi doesn't have enough penetration for full coverage of a three-room appartment (albeit in Germany - no US style cardboard walls here). If my router wasn't dual-band I'd be screwed every time I need to take a dump :p

90+GHz is going to be pretty much limited to Line-of-Sight unless they have some pretty awesome tricks up their sleeves.

Apparently the screenshots in the article are the full-screen "touch" versions. I'd expect the regular versions to have the full ribbons just like 2010 or 2013 (which I've actually grown to like, because they expose keyboard shortcuts for practically EVERYTHING).

... to store photos. They have a handy "share via link" function for entire albums, so you can easily share entire albums with friends (albeit without fine grained control of permissions... basically anyone with the link re-share it at will). There's no storage limit for images up to 2048px (longest side), and there's an easy way to download individual images as well as entire zipped albums.

As a social network though? Hahaha, I only have a Facebook account for Messenger - wtf would I need another network for?
