We love really good apps, no matter what our OS of choice is.  We really love really good apps that embrace the good things that OS of choice has to offer. Evernote for Windows Phone has updated, and it has replaced the note list with tiles!  Hark, the herald angels sing!  Now you can look [...]

Reddit user Xodium snapped this shot at Disneyland (that would the one in California, if you can’t keep track) in the House of Tomorrow.  Nice to see Windows Phone out and about!  (Anyone want to throw out how much they think Microsoft paid for that bit of product placement?)

Mary Jo Foley knows all and she’s sharing with us. October 29 will be the official “launch” of Windows Phone 8, I am told. I’m hearing this event will likely be on the west coast, either in San Francisco or Los Angeles. (Again, I don’t know exactly where. A photo studio? Outside an Apple store?) [...]

The link to Bloomberg from the post provides more info.  The lead in explicitly discusses next week’s Windows Phone 8 announcement and then this: JBL, a unit of Harman International Industries Inc.
