Microsoft and Nokia partner for the next SmartPhone.

First update in a while, alas time was not on my side and will now be updating much more regularly.

As if it came as a surprise at all, although quite late in the "game", big M and Nokia will be making a partnership to begin their own line of smartphones with the intention to compete with Apple and Google's current products.
Joining forces to take on the big boys.

















The interesting thing about this alliance is how Nokia turned down Android's OS for their Smartphone entry, as they claim too many brands are now into the market and they would not be successful at differentiating themselves much. On the other hand, may I ask you readers, have you even heard much about Windows 7 Phone OS? Neither have I.

It's an interesting move with a take on smartphones to keep pushing and diversifying our options, but i'll be honest I just feel Microsoft is coming in too late with this. Only time will tell what will come out of this, but if you ask me i'll stick with good ol' iPhone. Although the Nexus phone has been getting quite some heat lately and has definitely made it's room in the mainstream smartphones alongside Apple's iPhone and Blackberry's own series.

P.S: On a side note, I will soon be starting to post tutorials along side anything that has to do with computers on how to's about windows, computer hardware and some often ambiguous topics. I'm still drafting the list on what to post first so stick around.
