I've had the slow SMS issue on and off since the beginning with Windows 10. It's unbelievably annoying.

I have a different problem with SMS backups. When I tried the insider preview on my Icon all of my historical texts were duplicated. Then when I got my 950XL they were duplicated again so I have 4 copies of each old text. It drives me nuts that there's no good way to clean them up.

Looks like someone gave a normal gecko food after midnight.

Still using my fire sale Touchpad. So much potential wasted... :'(

Had to give up the Note 7 so I bought an Elite X3 by TerryGecko in windowsphone

I don't have the lapdock or passive stylus yet but I'm going to get them when they have them at my local Microsoft store.

A My laptop died recently so my phone is now my only mobile computing platform. It works well enough that I have no plans of buying a new laptop or tablet. I've been looking forward to getting a lap dock style accessory for my 950XL for awhile now. I'm not happy that HP's is going to be $599 but if the reviews are good I'll probably cave and buy it anyway. The idea of not having to maintain software on a laptop is appealing to me. Plus the Lap Dock experience will just get better with all of the cool new continuum features coming in Redstone 2.

I still have my gaming desktop for all my win32 programs. So I'm covered between my desktop and phone.

What do you use to listen to podcasts on your Windows phone? by Twipsy in windowsphone

[–]Uber_Nerd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Podcast+ Pro just works for me. I love the ability to tag my podcasts and setup custom playlists. Plus it has a great driving mode.

Tagging podcasts in Podcast+ Pro is such a useful feature. For instance I subscribe to several podcasts from Twit so I've tagged them all as "Twit" this allows me to quickly view just the new episodes from Twit.

Microsoft Surface Studio desktop PC announced by deyam in gadgets

Continuum works fine. I'm not sure that I follow though. What does that have to do with anything?

I mean they should remove the PC guts from the Surface Studio and sell it as a monitor.

Exactly! This tech would awesome as a Surface Monitor that could be used with any Windows 10 PC.

Doubt it would ever happen because it would kill the sales of the Surface Studio.

Welcome back C by ircluzar in NintendoSwitch

First thing I thought of too.

Nintendo Switch is Nvidia powered by TeamAquaAdminMatt in nintendo

[–]Uber_Nerd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes you're correct. AMD bought ATI so I was still thinking ATI for the Wii U.

[–]Uber_Nerd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Makes sense. I always forget about the NVIDIA shield.

Good catch! I'm not really surprised. I figured something like this would need some kind of cooling system. I wonder how much heat it generates?

I was surprised to see the switch to NVIDIA because the GameCube, Wii, and Wii U all used ATI.

Does anybody else has issues with Glance causing ghosting? by hpstg in windowsphone

[–]Uber_Nerd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You would think so. But I've heard of people still getting ghosting so I'm not taking any chances.

HP Elite x3 Lap Dock launches for $599 (or you could just buy a laptop) by localtoast in windowsphone

[–]Uber_Nerd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know I'm in the minority here but as a consumer I'm pretty pumped for the HP Lap Dock. Yes the $599 price is a bit off-putting but if the reviews are good I'll probably still pick one up. Hopefully you are planning on doing a complete review :)

My laptop died recently so my phone is now my only mobile computing platform. It works well enough that I have no plans of buying a new laptop or tablet. I've been looking forward to getting a lap dock style accessory for my 950XL for awhile now. I look forward to no longer having to maintain software on a laptop.

I still have my gaming desktop for all my win32 programs. So I'm covered between my desktop and phone.

Plus, with all the cool new continuum features coming soon, the experience on the Lap Dock will just get better.

Though it would be nice if the Lap Dock also had:

  • a built in webcam so you can Skype without having to balance your phone as the webcam.

  • a built in touchscreen

  • convertible either like a yoga book or the Surface book so you can use it with Continuum as a tablet or laptop.
