Apparently to do it correct you need a theater size screen. I have a Samsung 3d TV with 3d Blu-Ray and really feel that I just threw money away for the 3d part.

What I want is a faster Xbox and maybe a smaller kinect. Happy with most of the other features.

When I found out that SQL 2012 didn't work on XP I went and read the notes on 2008 R2 SP1. I haven't deployed it yet to my 5 xp customers that are using our .net 4.0 application. There is nothing in the notes about XP so I assumed they had dropped support there also. I guess I read to much into it. Windows 7 isn't in those notes either but it is supported. I will edit my original statement.

Microsoft dropped support for XP in SQL Server 2012. Internet Explorer 9 doesn't run on XP. Even Adobe has dropped XP support in LightRoom 4. I think the list goes on and on but it shouldn't come as a huge suprise that a framework that ships in a OS in 2012 would work in an os that shipped in 2001.

But that being said usually when people ask me about a phone they have requirements that prevent me from suggesting wp7.

Even though many people don't really get why they need 4G, Verizon's advertising is making a non 4g phone a hard sell.

If they have used and liked an iphone or andriod phone before the change is too much for many people, especially if a favorite app is not available for wp7 yet.

Bottom line is if they want an Accura and you talk them into an Audi they probably will be annoyed by the differences.

Yeah, you need a satellite phone though. GPS is a one way signal. From what I understand the repeating message being broadcast from the GPS satellites is basically just a timestamp and a satellite location. The gps processor in your device uses all of the responses to triangulate a position.

...Plus, you can always take your games you bought with you to a new iPhone, but not to a new WP7 or Android phone...

You seem to be indicating on WP7 the app is tied to the device. Its tied to your Xbox live account. If you get a new phone you still have rights to your purchased games. The same way if you got a new Xbox. However game save data is lost when switching to a new WP7 device.
