Carpuccino runs on coffee

Carpuccino runs on coffee

For many of us, it is a nice, hot cup of coffee that keeps us going through the day, which strangely decent is the same case for the Carpuccino that you see above. What used to be a standard 1988 Volkswagen Scirocco is now a coffee-powered car, but mileage isn't that ideal (and a waste of good coffee, we might add) since it requires 56 espressos for a without mile. It will run on any sort as lengthy as the coffee is very dry and comes in a pellet scheme factor that enables the air to move through the pile of coffee as it burns.

Windows Phone 7 Series

Nokia at Mobile World Congress – Wrap Up

Microsoft just launched its Windows Phone 7 Series, a new version of its mobile OS that features a completely new user interface, based on the lessons learned with the Zune HD. By the way, that might be the greatest contribution of the Zune HD to the world... So how is Windows Phone 7 and should you keep an eye on it?

User Interface

Just like so many had hoped for the past year, Microsoft has been building upon its Zune HD experience (and possibly codebase) to supply a faster, more responsive user interface. Today's demo was convincing, and while it was hard to judge without using the phone itself, things were were certainly fast sufficient! (The phone was connected to a big display via USB). I suspect that it will be comparable to the Zune HD and it is possible that Windows Phone 7 Series might actually be as responsive or more responsive than the iPhone 3GS.

Nokia at Mobile World Congress – Wrap Up

The user interface is based on "tiles" that are visually simple to process and friendly for fingers. It is additionally consistent will all the applications, from the photo album to Xbox Live - it's a clean break from Windows Mobile 6.x.

For HTC user interface fans: I think that it is dead. It has served its purpose, but although it is shiny, I'm afraid that Windows Phone 7 is better.
