Microsoft needs to succeed in the smartphone market, so it's essential that they emphasize the phone capabilities in their product names. With this in mind, the GUI name should be:
"Phone Phone Phone Phone Phone Phone Phone Windows 8 Phone Phone Outlook XBox Phone Phone Phone Bing Phone Phone GUI and Phone."
Lovely Phone. Wonderful Phone.

LG Cinema 3D TV Get Full HD Certification From VDE 71
i4u writes "LG announced today that the German VDE, one of the largest technical and scientific associations in Europe, has certified the LG Cinema 3D TVs to be full HD in 3D-mode. LG's Film Patterned Retarder (FPR) technology, used on the CINEMA 3D TVs, creates the perception of 3D depth by delivering two 540 line images, one for each eye, that are then combined via the glasses to create a unified 1080p image. The ruling from the VDE lets LG carry the full HD badge. There is no explanation one how the VDE arrives at this ruling. My personal experience shows a rather big resolution difference between FPR and shutter glass based 3D TVs."

I used Google to search for "Conrad Saam Microsoft". The fourth result is this:
http://www.linkedin.com/in/conradsaam
On this page you will find that Microsoft is one of Conrad Saam's clients. Google, oddly enough, is not mentioned:
"My experience includes numerous awarding-winning interactive projects for clients including AOL, Disney, Ford, General Motors, Kraft Foods, Lego, Macromedia, Mattel, McDonalds, Microsoft, Napster, Nickelodeon, The United Nations and WeightWatchers."
I will take his anecdotal research with a very large grain of sodium chloride.
