Zune HD: yes, it plays Doom
Apr 20th 2010 10:32PM (Engadget)The game is clearly not done. When you perform a port you work first on the game porting part, THEN you focus all you energy on the control to get it perfect. Also, I don't think this will ever be released in any case, as I feel like Id will sue someone.

Microsoft on copy and paste in Windows Phone 7 Series: 'people don't do that'
Mar 17th 2010 10:56PM (Engadget)If you load an page in IE, let's say, and will it loads you leave and do something else, IE will still load the page on the back.
You can listen to music and do something else with the phone.
If you run an application that allow this, if you leave the application, the application is paused, and resumes when you come back. I assume it can some sort of ability like IE does (loading a page in the background).
In other words, is a multitasking but focused on saving battery life, and simplify the usage of the phone by not making things complicated for the average user with task manager, and how they have to monitor it, because some application did not close properly when asked (user left the application, but the application is still running doing something, consuming battery - I will not be surprised if this happens. Software bugs all the time.)
I find it as a good trade off.
It is for sure that program like Word and Excel, will have copy and paste (well I am assuming). But, it will be per applications, meaning you can't copy and paste from Word to IE or vise-verse. Which sucks yes, I totally agree.
What Microsoft is trying to explain is that an application can support access to your contacts and such. So let's say you have a Instant Messaging (IM) program on it. You have a phone number in a received message (let's say), the IM program can have a phone number detection and when you click on the number, it can add it to your contacts if it's not there. Well that is what I understand on what is being said.
