Microsoft DevRadio: Using the GeoLocation API for Your Windows 8 Apps
Mar 15, 2013 at 7:55 AM@George: Yeah. The API is clever enough to look for every available avenue. It's a heuristic that measures batter cost, bandwidth cost, and accuracy. Should a SIM be in the device, as I understand it, that's a very valid and very good source of location data. So, yes. Of course, were we to be talking Windows Phone, that location API pretty much starts there first, right?
Microsoft DevRadio: Using OData in Your Windows 8 application
Sep 19, 2012 at 9:26 AM@aljodAv: http://aka.ms/w8odata is what you need for RTM. Don't waste your time on RP anymore. And, by the way, the Netflix catalog is totally public. Try just hitting it with a browser and you will see. Anyway, get the RTM bits to use Odata now.
