Comment Bored and just wanted to say (Score 2) 73

To those thinking that 4.10 and 4.1 are the same, I'm on 4.9.2 (Four period nine period two) now to go back to 4.1 (four period one) would be silly as the beta is 4.10 which is (Four period Ten) I hope that clears things up for some :). on a serious note I'll wait for my distro (PCLinuxOS for those interested, not a *buntu fan personally) to have the stable in before I jump in

Pay as you go in the UK at least means say you pay £10 for say 1 GB of data for a month, you pay before you use :) I have an unlimited pay as u go data on my phone for 10 GBP /month that includes unlimited txt and 300 mins to any cell network voice mins too, I assume this satellite setup will be similar, sans the sms txt and voice of course.

This move reminds me of when Apple stopped supporting PPC devices. The article says WinPh8 won't support single-core devices. I wonder why? That would be equivalent to them releasing Windows 7 and saying, "Won't support Pentium 4 or other single-cores."

That is because Wph8 need more than one core because it's slow and needs more cores to move at a decent pace hahah

Splashtop Drops Windows 8 Metro Testbed Onto Android 36

MojoKid writes "Want to try out the Windows 8 Metro interface on your Android tablet? Splashtop apparently has a solution. The company previously released a Windows 8 Metro testbed for the iPad back in April, and now it has one for Android devices, which is available in the Google Play Store. You'll need a PC with the Windows 8 Release Preview installed, but once you have that taken care of, you'll be able to poke around Microsoft's new touch interface on any Android tablet."
