I definitely agree with a lot of what's said here - I had a WP a couple of years ago and it served me really well (aside from app selection) - looked at the 1020 long and hard before my upgrade this month to deciding to skip it, WP just hasn't quite come far enough since I last had it, my biggest gripe being the lack of a notification centre. If an app provides a notification, you miss the popup and you don't have it pinned, then you'll never know that anything happened.
For my other half it was perfectly suitable though, and got her a 920 a couple of months ago - hope it sticks around long enough that it can mature into the OS is deserves to be and gains serious market share.

One nice feature about the navigation on the windows phone it doesn't sit there and yell at you when you stop at a gas station. The iphone gets pissed if you deviate from its route. Windows phone just shuts up, waits till you start moving again, recalculates and gets you back on the road (not really needed but never know).
Common sense is admitting there is cause and effect and that you can exert some control over what you understand.

After many years of moaning and bitching and fighting I gave up and I am now doing web development!
On the plus side it the best paid job ever by far!!
Now the thing is, web development is much better than in 1998 I have to admit (that's the year where I banned web dev from my possible interests)
And I am almost having fun!!
Today I just finished a concept / demo for a new feature, using TypeScript[^], Bootstrap[^] and KnockoutJS[^].
It's impressive what can be done with KnockoutJS, not too far from MVVM Silverlight ease!!
And Bootstrap added a nice sleek UI touch with ease too!
I think they will like it!

Damn! Stay true to WPF/Silverlight/WinRT man!! ^^
On the other hand it complete my resume nicely!
When I will finish my home musing with DirectX I will know all that is needed!! Muahahahaha!!!!

As I am heading the Typescript / Knockout way myself, I demand an article so I don't have to make the same mistakes you do
Bootstrap I'm not fussed about, as it's just the pretties, from what I glean...

So Mrs.RaGE gave birth today (7th of October) to our third child, Benjamin.
Everybody is doing fine (but me, as I have to handle the two eldest till she is back home - and probably a couple of months more).
Shamelessly plagiarizing an idea from someone here in the Lounge, I'd be very happy if you guys could send me the first page of your local newspaper from the 7th of October per snail mail. I'd be happy to pay for the shipping. (I'd also be very happy with a scanned/photo version per mail if snail mail is too much of a hassle). In any way, just contact me per private mail below.
Thanks !
