New Windows Phone TV Ads from Microsoft plus Stephen Fry

New from the US, these Windows Phone ads really sum up how my wife feels about me and my device.

Here’s hoping I can start living my life again…..

BTW – I was at the launch of the phone 7 on Monday.

As Ashley Highfield said on stage, it was “high risk” having Stephen Fry show up, but it seems to have done wonders to draw attention to the wider smartphone/tech ecosystem, especially as Stephen’s all about “biodiversity” in the technology space.

Listen to this excellent Guardian Tech podcast from the event by Jemima Kiss and Charles Arthur

And he most definitely didn’t get paid!!!

Here’s a link to my photos from the front row of the Windows Phone Launch and my fave below:

Windows Phone 7 Features Video

From the Windows Phone team:

“Go ahead and stare the user interface of the Windows Phone 7 deserves it. That’s the reaction we got at Mobile World Conference in Barcelona when we revealed this new holistic design system that brings together form and function based on key principles — informing every aspect of the phone. See what everyone is talking about by checking out this video.”

I’ve seen one.

Anyway…………….day dream over!

Microsoft Adaptive Computer Keyboard Prototype

Pretty awesome demo of a new ideas on how we input data via a keyboard.

The idea is to try and find new and dynamic ways of interacting with computers using touch.

The team is investigating whether this kind of work can help increase productivity.

If you’re short on time, forward to 5.20 for an amazing intuitive use of Outlook and Communicator which minimises interruption of your workflow.

Check out their blog post: How will input devices evolve to help information workers?

Not bad eh?
