There really isn't even any FUD in this lol - They haven't announced anything that's even remotely interesting.
Oh and it's not compatible with any current phones. brilliant.
As much as I hate that marketing term, Apple nails it when it comes to bringing technology to the masses.
Come to think of it, I don't think many of them now it's a "Retina" screen, just that it's "better, brighter and crisper"
It seems they consistantly miss the mark in what consumers want to buy. OK great, 64-cores? who cares? What features does it offer the consumers who are supposed to purchase these to make their day to day lives more productive? Easier? More connected with friends / family?
None of my friends could tell you what WVGA or WXGA is, nor do they probably care.
I live in Boston and see hundreds of of people daily using a variety of phones. I have NEVER seen a Windows phone. not once. Why? Because it makes NO sense to buy one over Android/Iphone.
Microsoft needs to figure out quickly how to incorporate features, functions and uses that NO OTHER company has thought of. Until then, they will remain completely irrelevant and if I were a stock holder in their company, leave me questioning whether all that R&D money is being spent wisely.
LOL not sure if I'm excited or not to be considered "old school"....
