You're so good at criticizing everything else, except when it comes to your own choices... sounds like you can really benefit from getting a different job.

A superphone for me would be one that would wirelesly connect to an external monitor, keyboard or mouse to run all my desktop applications, not requiring any laptop or tablet anymore.

Well, fix Roaming and Maps. When roaming and setting allow roaming, the maps app will not allow you to calculate a route, prompting with an error message that you didn't enable roaming...
EDIT: After a restart it worked fine again

If it needs to be implemented, I would prefer the way that WP's IE9 handles tabs, just add a cicle with an X in the upper right corner of each task. Flicking up is not intuitive without any visual hint.

I stand corrected. You must be a RICH guy, to require 128GB for your music

If I get a WP7 device (wake me up when 128GB is available) I'm going to customise my home screen to have the following:
- Date/Time
- Upcoming Calendar Events
- Task-list
- Unread email, SMS, and IM
- Nothing else.
Because nothing else matters in a phone.
You must be a busy guy, to require 128GB for your Calendar Events, Task-list, email, SMS and IM and nothing else

But indeed, having only 8GB on an HTC 7Pro is somewhat limiting when you have Navigon Europe installed which doesn't have the option to choose which countries you want to store.

Let them also look into replenishing the developer phone stock in The Netherlands, waiting already for weeks to stress test the app on new hardware.

Hi Maddus
The taskagent certainly would drain the battery!
I'm affraid Gif's not supported on the WP7.1 managed side. Does work on IE9 though... It's really a shame, as animated Gif is exactly the effect I want to achieve.Discovered and reported some other issues with WriteableBitmap and visuals, that is ruining another idea for dynamic tile generation.
I've come to the point of limiting the ambitions and just keep things plain and easy until the next release.
Thanks,
Peter

Hi
My idea for a WP7.1 Mango app requires something like a live tile showing approximately 10 images with 0,5 seconds delay between them, with 10 seconds in between repetitions, similar like an animated gif.
Updating the tile from a ScheduledTaskAgent doesn't seem to work at least in the emulator, the tiles are updated 10 times but only the first and last image from the tile updates are essentially displayed, the others tile updates are somehow skipped (optimized?). I also notice some refreshing issues where the tile briefly flickers with a red square.
Is this kind of animation too much to ask from Mango, anyone managed to get this working?
Thanks in advance,
