Texas Holdem - like iphone one?

Does anyone know if there´s a game like this one:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VVnqndBNvwQ
for Windows mobile device? really like that game
thanks
I'd like to have the one of Microsoft Vista. That's really well done.
that I would want for my cell phone also
whoa
ooh my goood....this is real amazing...when this will be available it will be gr8...i cant wait for it...
i really would love to have it. But i wonder if its possible.
One thing that would be great for us (WM users) is an app store.
Thats one step that the people who creates great games for iphone start doing also for our lovelly HD Don´t know when Microsoft will do it. But i imagine only at WM7... sadly.
sky store (which will be microsoft's appstore) is planned to be released, rumors want that it will be out with winmo6.5 (aka: in two weeks!!)

Windows Phone Seven port?

Hi, this is more of a opinion question than a 'question' question. Hopefully the great devs in the forum see this and find a way to port it. Please vote in the poll and if you have an opinion to say please write them. Just respect other members. Your opinions such as "why would you want a port?" Aren't really Nessecary.
Thanks
Most of your options don't make "sense", so I can't vote!
Whilst it may be possible to port WP7 to the Desire hardware, your first two poll options are to port WP7 to Android which is nonsensical!
Personally, from what I've seen of WP7 so far, there is nothing that makes me want to move away from Android at present, but that doesn't preclude it happening in the future. However, if I did want to move to WP7, I'd almost certainly buy a phone dedicated to it rather than attempt to cobble together something on an Android phone.
Regards,
Dave

even if it was possible, which it's NOT, none of the developers here would do it as its ILLEGAL, we dont own a LICENCE for wp7, it would be no diffrent to distributing PIRATE copy's of windows 7....
indeed, most of us here bought an android device because we wanted to customise our phones or because we got tired and annoyed with other OSes(especially WM, urg...!{yeah, I know I have the HD2, it pisses me off...=.="'}), but if there are any developers porting WP7, I'd like to see it emulated only.
Oh, I didn't know it was illegal. Guess no one would port it then. But maybe a good emulator would be nice. I wish I had bought a HD2 now...
Given that Windows Phone 7 is not Windows Mobile, it would probably technically be illegal to run it on an HD2 too, though since you'd have effectively paid some kind of licence fee to MS, they would be more likely to turn a blind eye I guess!
It's by no means certain that it would be any easier though!

that would be down to microsofts discretion, previously they havent made much of an issue out of us porting newer versions of windows mobile to, older windows mobile devices, and imo i dont think they would start now, ie porting wp7 to the HD2 ect.... but i cant see them sitting back and letting people port wp7 to a device with no microsoft licence all together. they didnt get to be the biggest company in the world by letting things like that slide
Why would you want to anyway?
Personally I don't even like the look of WP7 interface. Some nice features but it just looks a bit naff to me!

i watched the wp7 keynote speach yesterday and was quite impressed, the people hub and the office hub both look very impressive, and as an xbox live gamer, the games hub looks awsome things i dont like about it are, it seems more of a feature phone than a smart phone, and like the iphone its very ms orientated, i dont like that, you can use android without even knowing google develop it

Yeah looks very slick and with SkyDrive integration only major thing I want now is a better navigation app and direct to outlook sync (no cloud junk).

i dont get you.... do you know that most of the users dont care about those things will be updated as to them a phone is a phone and as a phone my HD7 is better then any other phone in the market...
if i give my phone to my 80 year old dad he will be able to use it as its simple and easy to use....
i think MS have done a great job in finally creating a simple user friendly mobile OS... and the best of all it do not hang or lag...

LOL! I think he's just saying that the update looks sick. And he feels bad for the folks that DONT want to join the wp7 bandwagon. I mean he is using an HD7.

I actually really like the cloud based services, and there was once a time I hated them. The convenience is just so remarkable that I don't think anything else can come close. I remember a time when I thought the bluetooth sync was the greatest thing that happened to my WinMo device because it took me away from a USB cable... Then I was given an exchange access and my life changed forever lol... I don't think I ever want direct sync again... The cloud has become my home.
wow really?
noone looked further then skydrive? i even skipped this part..
take a look at 3:58 ... when ie9 gets compared to safari
awesooome!
or wait..
legen .... wait for it...
Ya, the video stuff is great with IE9, but it still doesn't do flash.. and that's most of the videos (non youtube) that I want to watch.
Hopefully soon!

Again, most of you fail to realize that implementing HTML5 and Silverlight are Microsoft projects. Flash on the other hand is an Adobe project, one they would need to code and supply for the OS. As much as I'd like to have it, it isn't a deal breaker to be completely honest, and I hope that HTML5 has caught on a lot more by then... I already read somewhere that Flash 10.2 is coming to our phones 'soon.'
Yeah I think within a year of its initial crippled released WP7 will shape to be a very good mobile os. The signs are good so far but all MS needs to do is relate and communite with their user base better.

"Xbox Live Needs To Step Up Its Game"

Hey guys I just posted up an editorial about my thoughts on Xbox Live on my still in-progress WP7 blog. I'm working on it, but it's difficult to keep up with news when the site is run by one college student
Anyway, the editorial is called "Xbox Live Needs To Step Up Its Game" and I'm sure I'm not alone in my frustrations with XBL. It's good as it is but it definitely needs to get better. So if you're interested you can [URL="http://windowsphonedaily.blogspot.com/2011/03/editorial-xbox-live-needs-to-step-up.html"]read it here[/URL].
Will be reading this. Xbox really needs to step up it's game, well on WP7 that is
Subscribed! Keep up the great work...
Wish they had a version of Lumines Live! for WP7. It's one of the games I'd like to take with me. I guess there's an iPhone version.

Been there...
"This past week’s I Love Katamari was a shocking $6.99"
They should have listed the price in MS points.

[Mod post] Yes you guys can stop clammoring for android now. . .Look at this :)

Here it is. . .
http://youtu.be/NFoQNo237kI
I leave it at that.
Device is the HD7*.
Very Nice!
Yey! Best news ever.
This is silly. Why would you run Android on HD7? Why not run WP7 on EVO 4G instead?It makes more sense (no pun intended) as the hardware can make Android less laggy and you get the faster processor you always wanted in a WP7 device.

Sad to see an HD7 running that crap. However, now that this has been done I am hopeful that maybe we will be able to run WM6.5.3 on the HD7! =D that would be bliss...

Why wouldn't you just use a HTC HD2?
Casey
Just another HD2... not interested...
BTW, I think it's a HD7 not S. There is T-Mobile sign on it.
It doesn't matter why you would run it, it just matters that you could, that could possibly open many doors of other mobile OS's . Does the HD7 have 1st gen Snapdragon HW or 2nd gen?
want... I do miss some the the android features.
I want it. WP7 is good, but to have both. Fricken sweet.

My point exactly. WM6.5.3 on HD7 might not be far...oh and HD7 has 1st gen Snapdragon.

Sad to read such opinionated crap. I tried wp7 but I personally prefer android. You will have to agree that any choice of OS is good though?
PS sent from my hd2 running android ;-)

2nd gen that is multicore but locked from the menufactorer,there is nothing we can do about it! :"(
This is good for all WP7 devices surely - giving people options to choose which OS they would like to run regardless of what brand they bought is a good thing. I bought my HD2 second off ebay, best decision ever. I would really like to try the WP7 software but I'm not keen of the windows live contact integration. Anyway if the video is to actually be believed then this is only good news for owners as long as the devs get the info and can make use of it, doubt it will take too long. :]
PS - does WP7 support .xml contact importing? (I know slightly off topic)

Because no one is charging $800 for an HD7 atm, unlike the HD2.

I got my HD2 a month ago off craigslist for $200 just to dual boot WP7 and Gingerbread and I don't even have T Mobile. Wifi only. Best phone purchase I ever made. I can do everything I need(calls using Fring and texts using Google Voice) There is like no logical reason to get a new HD7 to get something that was available 2 years ago. No offense intended. Refurbished HD2's from T Mobile cost $29 bucks with the upgrade eligibility. If you want wm 6.5.3, don't wait for something to happen by the next person's hands. Port it yourself because you are one in a million that want that.
thank you for this very interesting post.
it would be great to run android on a hd7.
to your signature:
I completely agree with you, the hd2 is a awesome device and it is still my number one ;-)
awesome i love it
To good to be true..!!!
But after having Android & WP7 on the HD2, I say anythin's possible..!!!

Running WM6.5.3 on the HD7 is THE biggest crap. First they made hd2 waste oh hardware then hd7 even worst.
T-Mobile really needs some powerful HTC phone running android WITH 4.3" screen.
I ve been waiting for somebody (DFT) to port MAGLDR and run android on it.
BUT since ENGADGET havent said a word about that i dont totally believe it. But they havent said its KIRF so lets hope its true.
Since you haven't been following up on anything, HTC has announced the HTC Sensation AKA the Pyramid, and it will be going ton T-Mobile soon. All 2nd gen HW, with a 4.3" screen that sports qHD resolution.
