I stumbled across this site (www.msmobiles.com), is this a sanctioned Microsoft site? It just sort of struck me as a bit out of place with MS sites in general.

Ah far be it for me to actually read the site
I was a bit distracted by the name, after a bit of a google it looks like it has a mixed reputation.

I've been reading it for a long while now... most items are unbiased but he's definately not a Nokia fan (understatement) and is incredibly pissed off that he's not an MVP with the CE group... pretty quick postings and reviews though, over all.

If you want to know more about this guy, check out news://msnews.microsoft.com/microsoft.public.smartphone newsgroup, and/or search with your favourite engine for "Jacek Rutkowski" and "Nokia". You'll find the information very amusing. Also check out http://www.russellbeattie.com/notebook/1008171.html. The guy has real problems.

Ms Mobiles is a great site, very entertaining to read.

It's definitely not a Microsoft site, the guy who runs it spammed up Microsoft's newsgroups for years with the URL in the from line - due to a bug in Google this elevated his rankings.  He still goes on posting with the URL in his from line, although he has calmed down a bit lately.

Remember, Microsoft rarely refers to itself as MS.

And they often have better site design/layouts than those chumps.

Not to mention, they would use .NET or at least asp. Not php: http://www.msmobiles.com/f/viewforum.php?f=4
