Anything in the horizon? Anyone been thinking about it? We're days away... would love to get in the 21st century and leave the Excel spreadsheets behind.

Hello there!
I'd like to inform you about a pretty sweet app, which does about everything u want and imagine of such an app.
The site where I found it:
hxxp://yyy.mobilepractices.com/2010/06/world-cup-2010-application-for-windows.html
Not marketing or something, I'm just not sure if it came from XDA DEVs or not.
Might be an idea to make such an app run in the background on low fuel consumption, with an alarm function to set for your favorite matches haha.
It's a pretty nice, well working, if I may believe what's been writen, revolutionairy app!
Have Fun!
Yeah mate there's definitely already at least 2 world cup 2010 apps... jump onto windows marketplace, there's one there for like $0.99 or $1.99... something like that.
I'm looking for friends/opponents/beginners/professionals to fill up my leaderbord
I don't have a Xbox, and because I don't now anybody else that has a windows phone I can't compare my scores on the leaderbord. (I would love to see a general leaderbord for Xbox live)
Everyone with the same issue as me please post your gamertag name. I will start first with mine:

Sucks without an actual Xbox 360. Post this on the Microsoft site, I'll vote for it.

I dont have an XBox yet either and my friends have laughed with tears at my paltry wp7 score. LOL
Good to have friends around my level xD

Nice thread! I don't have my phone yet, the DVP should arrive at my doorstep in a few days. Feel free to add me anyways..

Great idea, I dont have an Xbox either.
Gamertag: NostalgiaFX
Well you dont exactly need an Xbox to increase your gamerscore. Even games such as Fallout 3, GTA4 etc which support GFWL on Windows use the gamerscore.
But the addition of WP7 to Xbox live is really great, I can now increase my gamerscore on the go while in the train or a bus or even inflight.

Good idea. I moved out to the country and no longer have broadband access at home..and my XBOX won't recognize the ad hoc network that I create on my Vibrant. So, I abandoned my old gamer tag and created a new one for my WP7.
Im not sure how the whole process of adding friends works over the phone, though. I went into my profile on XBOX Live on my phone, did a search for my brothers gamer tag, found it, and pressed the plus sign at the bottom to add him. But, nothing happened after that, and he says he didn't receive any kind of notification on his XBOX. Am I missing something? Btw, my gamer tag is Joe Ra78

I had the same problem, but the next day I had 2 friends. You did it probably right because I did it the same way. I think there is a delay in it.
(still need to find a way to get access to paid apps in the Netherlands, any tips would be nice).
yeah thats the correct way... and if u go to xbox.com you can see your pending friend requests also.
Cool, thanks guys. It did work. About an hour ago, my XBOX Live tile showed that I had some sort of notification, and sure enough, I had 3 pending friend requests

Hey sandrobber, sorry can't reply to you on xboxlive, I'm not a gold member. I got The Harvest for $9 (I think thats aussie dollar, cant remember lol)
TropicalRajput
Wow that is lame that you have to have a gold account to do that
Just to detract from all the hater posts on here lately, I just wanted to say that I just came onboard from android and, aside from the lack of good games, I really do love my wp7.
I have been extremely happy so far!
Which phone did you go with?
I played with the HTC Surround (what was HTC thinking?) with Mango on it and it was nice. Can't wait til I get one.
I traded my HTC incredible s for an lg quantum and haven't looked back!
nice and welcome! have had my focus for over a year now, and enjoy it every day I've had. which is pretty remarkable since people get bored of phones so quickly.

thank you!
The focus is a beautiful phone, I do love my physical keyboard.though.
It is seriously a welcome change, I love metro ui
Another happy WP7 user. All it takes is for people to use one in a context of owning it and they will be hooked. By the way, there are some excellent games. You just have to browse through them. You can try many of them that are paid. I have a large selection in my collection and can list them for you if you need.

I would appreciate that!
What i miss the most is a good first person shooter
I can live with the lack of games though, everything else makes it totally worthwhile imo..
Never any lag, and I don't feel like I need to constantly flash or tweak my device.
Makes me much more productive in other areas of my life hahah

I've had my HTC trophy since it came out in the spring/summer on vzw. i had a droid x before, and I don't miss android. Every month I would have to flash my phone so it would be fast again. Not needed with wp7. I love the OS, but the phone could have better specs.

Welcome on board!
I would recommend pro evo soccer but then I guess football isn't everyone's taste would be good to see some other sports games, I think baseball could cross to phone really well and cricket. Could also do American football and rugby in a similar way to pes could use swipe controls for kicks and scrums etc to add extra elements.
Ps welcome onboard I to came from android and love it. Android still has a place in my heart but more in tablets now. =)
+1 for Flowerz.
It is a challenging game if you put your time in it

It can be. I usually play to about the 10th level and then restart. I like it up to the 10th level. After that it becomes a pain and un-fun.
Finally a thread without bad karma getting quite rare now...
And welcome to WP7 Apps that I recommend:
AccuWeather - has the best LiveTile for weather right now
kik/whatsapp
weave - good news app
LazyTube - best youtube app
TuneIn Radio - best radio app with background streaming
Appflow - quite a must have
CocktailFlow - very nice app for making cocktails
imdb - for movies, obviously
for games:
Arcane's TD Free
Chicken Story Plus
Broken Wing Plus
Bobble Biker
FastBall 2
Jewel³
Krashlander Free
Monster Stack
Square Off Free - very nice one
Pulse, best news app ever. Best live tiles too.
Lazytube is ok.
I can't recommend a game yet.

Please reply via PM as I don't want to be accused of derailing the thread but are you actually saying you don't own a WP7? Because that would explain some things...

Pulse has a live tile? I know it has background updates.
I've just spent 11 hours on fusion: sentinels. It is everything a cellphone game should be and its integration with my 360 is amazing. Highly recommended.
hey guys
I love WP7
I own one from 27/12/2010 omnia 7;;
until now and I love it
But a little disappointed with the new devices..
I was waiting something big from Samsung here in Europa but still nothing
IM going to give my omnia 7 to my gf she is crazy about it
but i dont know what is next for me ..
Found an original Focus semi cheap while I'm waiting on the 32GB Galaxy Nexus and the 900 to be released. So I'm moving back here for at least a couple weeks. Last time I was on WP was just when Mango dropped. Looking around YT and our WP app section. I feel like a kid in the candy store. So many users and new apps. Good to be back, I really really enjoy this OS.
Anything cool I should check out? (Vable Browser looks Chrome-ish!)

Depends - what you are looking for? games? navigation? tips?
Play with tellme some. Ask it weather in san fransico. Say start app. Say find "insert address here) and you'll see the map program come up. Say find pizza (or if indoors and no gps find pizza (your city name)
There is so much to play with - you have to give us an idea where you want to go 1st.

Anywhere dude. I'm really missed "Hello everybody I'm George Ponderer for WPcentral." Listened to everything on thier YT channel last night. I just went back into my WP account and cleaned that up. Looking for a decent TBT Nav app. Got a couple browsers listed to try. Put Ziggy on the list. What's cool? What apps do you have on your WP?

I'm an app whore lol.
The best offline TBT would be navigon. It's 3d also and the most expensive. For 2d, turn by turn works good (online one is pretty cheap) Built in bing works great also but doesn't auto voice announce.
Grab an app called AppFlow.
It will show you the trends and has good recommendations.
Freda is good ebook reader
Keyring for keeping shopping barcodes
Urban dictionary is hilarious along with I LOL'D
theChive is good
xda forum app of course
The most used ones that i use for keeping up with WP7 and technology are WP7 News (Which rocks as it scans like 2 sites for news) and Tech news now
If you like four square, 4th and mayor is the best.
...I'm a WP7! rocks
Amazing weather or weather channel are great weather apps.
Forward contact is great to share contacts with via qr code and scanning with bing vision (no bluetooth needed to share a contact)
Titan is a great FREE game.
That is just some i could think of.
If you're into twitter check out Carbon (other thread about it)
The devs are planning a sweet update too.
If you're looking for a beautiful weather app use Weather View (former called Vädret).

I'll be around longer if the rumors are true about the 32GB.
If you like P2P, want control of your privacy, and think social has gone to sh!t, then we want to talk to you!
Despite the pervasive nature of social networks and the hyper-connectivity of our mobile devices, "social" has become, ironically, a very impersonal and isolating experience. It is time to take "social" back to its roots, which we strongly feel should be more personal, engaging, and "analog". We have built a platform and some applications that facilitates real-life interactions through common interests, and I'm looking to sit down with forward-looking people who want to participate in early Beta testing and give us frank/honest feedback. The application leverages a lesser-known feature that is available for the very first time in Ice Cream Sandwich, and I believe it will upend how people discovery/share/interact with others.
I am thinking about hosting pizza/beer nights a few days a week (in and around the SF/Bay Area) so I can meet and get to know some of you beautiful people, and wax the philosophy of why we do what we do =) If you're interested, love technology (and have a Galaxy Nexus), and want to play with a cool new app before it goes live on the app store, send an email to info at ekatasystems dot com!
Hope to see some of you folks in the wild!
ps you can check out our website a www dot tapestry-app dot com, but don't sign up from the website for the meet-up!
I don't live in the area so I can't attend, but I did sign up for private beta access. I'm very interested to see what your app will bring.
Same here. Looking forward for testing and more info on the subject)
We will launch the basic version of the app before Google IO, but wanted to get some feedback before then. Will let you guys know!
Anyone in the Bay Area, particularly Mountain View, Palo Alto, Los Altos, Sunnyvale, Menlo Park, San Jose, San Francisco, etc seeing this post?
looks cool...i'm really good at finding bugs and do live in the bay area....still in high school....
can test the app for you though
ezcats, it doesn't matter if you're in high school or a convalescent home. If you like gadgets and like to share pictures (at least for the first app), then you're part of the family =)
Drop me an email directly (info at ekatasystems dot com), so I know who you are....I've gotten 20+ requests submitted from the website, so I have no idea if they are local....
If you're willing to pick me up from the airport I guess I could fly out there since I work for an airline. lol
oh and did I mention we're looking for summer interns for QA? =)
Wow I'm surprised free pizza and beer didn't garner more attention.
interesting
I am very curious, count me in. I live in NY so no pizza and beer for me lol.
Got a ton of responses...one more bump to try and catch some Bay Area folks!
I live in the SF bay area and would be willing to test your app out!
This sounds right up my alley...too bad I'm on the opposite coast. Don't know that pizza and beer is enough incentive to make the trip =)
Sadly on the east coast too :'(
