Microsoft Defense Force

It's OK, you can have a quick peek

I’ve just been over at Kotaku’s house. They certainly did have some news going down over there. See that picture there? It’s what appears to be Windows Mobile 7. Do you see what else is there? XBOX Live. As Kotaku put it… that’s some tight integration, right on the home screen. Hot.

World Mobile Congress is happening today, soon. We’ll write something soon when more details about this platform synergy emerges.

You heard this?! The boy has been bitchin’ about Abode, and Google. Calling Adobe “lazy”, and Google’s motto (don’t be evnil) “bullshit”. That’s right lades and gentlemen… bullshit. Bull…shit.
