Also, you posted this as a news topic on your Android port site, what has this got to do with porting Android?

Hello Singh.navdeep94,
We haven't announced any plans to release on that platform. If we receive enough requests this may change, but I personally can't see it happening.
Thanks,
Sam.

I would like to put forth that i am head of operations of a fairly sizable open source project. i give an awful lot to the community, i don't expect anything in return for my work. The reason i am on your case is because your wasting mine and others time.
You how and ever run a site called Android port. I fail to see what that has to do with Angry birds on Bada....
I could post that your an absolute joke on our projects homepage but i don't because i don't wish to waste the time of our users with my personal musings. Thats what a personal blog is for.
Lastly, They didn't say they where doing it. They claim to be looking into the demand for it on bada, which is what they have been telling people, in that same generic email, for almost a year.
A bit of professionalism goes a long way Tom.

1st of all "I" want to say your a prick.
You rant and rave how fail bada is and now your ranting and raving for a game to be on bada.
Can you please grow the F up. You are not the Alpha and Omega here or anywhere for that matter.
If we all piss you off so much then leave. Take your sh!t and get out... BTW dont let the door hit you on the way out.
Your flipping a 2 same sided coin because it suites you and all your doing is pissing ppl off because you cant deside if your Eve or Steve.
Make up your mind what you want and get your own house in order. I personally cannot account for your attetude or justify why you think you created the heavens and earth and frankly i bet no one could care less about it either.
You're just like a kid... I want! I Want! ... and then when you dont get it or someone gives you some intilectual feedback you flip out and get all crazy and kick your dog because it just didnt carry your approval
Word of advice: Stop acting like a child and ppl will stop treating you like on. Pick your side and stick to it. Either Andriod or Bada.

I won! I won! I won my own unlocked htc titan!!

Hello community!
I won my very own titan tonight at the windows phone inner circle party at the hard rock hotel in downtown san diego.
I tweeted and tweeted until I couldnt' feel my fingers to be called up by the microsoft staff and won my own unlocked titan!
the event was awesome with free food and drinks and all of the mango phones worldwide on display!
I saw and handled the titan, focus s, focus flash, allegro, lg sander phone, fujitsu all on display, I was so ecstatic to be there oh and thank god my boyfriend figured out that we had to unlock or unprotect our tweets because the microsoft team couldn't see our hashtags to participate in the contest.
unfortunately some non deserving people won as well, some girl won that had no idea what she was winning (a titan as well) and asked if it worked for verizon, i almost rolled my eyes out my own head watching her win,
the windows phone inner circle party is coming to a city near you! im so thankful i won my next windowsphone and can now go back to att without a contract and can sell my hd7 and pay my disconnect fee for tmobile with the proceeds,
im too ecstatic for words!! happy happy joy joy!!
Congratulations! After handling all those devices do you think any of them stood out as superior to the rest of them? (In terms of build quality, aesthetics, or anything)
Yes I say tie for HTC and Samsung both of their offerings have fantastic design and build, samsung edged out in specs I think and being available on a better network, it was interesting to see the Fujitsu allegro and jil sander phone in the flesh, however im so excited for my new phone, just mulling over how to get away from t-mobile the least expensive way possible, you can check my posted pics from the party from my twitter account @noelitaux

No one person 'deserves' the prize anymore than any other. That's why it's called a prize.
Congrats on your new freebie.
Congratulations! What an awesome prize to win! If I may ask, which twitter profile were you following to know about the cities (inner circle) was hitting?
Oh man wish I knew about the protected thing. I wanted a Titan so bad i'm so jealous, oh well guess i'm out 200 bucks to use my upgrade ha.
Enjoy! I had VIP at least and open bar all night ha... probably drank 200 worth of drinks between me and my buddy ha.
Congrats
I couldn't make the party cause something came up. I rsvpd a while ago to the NYC one. I saw the pictures and regret not going. Looked like a lot of fun. Congrats on the phone.

This is a very very interesting read, well written too! What impressed me more is the fact that they have acknowledged that starting and OS from the start is what Windows Phone 7 is. Unlike others who bash the OS saying 'yeah but they had windows mobile since 10-12 years'!
They've acknowledged the fact that yes the money and customers they made pre-iPhone for 7 years or so were awesome! They decided to fight back iPhone just within a year, but thought windows mobile wasn't good enough with what they were facing. Thus, a drastic re-write of the whole freaking OS! This to me is an inspirational and bold move from a business that thought, we can afford to risk our time and money and let Google come along, give something as ordinary as iPhone but when we go out there, we will produce something extra ordinary. This is exactly what they made money from when they made windows mobile! - something extra ordinary for that era. I think with new design, new idea, new way to present info - they have actually proved a point saying "A decade of experience is much more than one Steve Jobs, but we have to prove it and here is how we do it!".
Thanks for the share!
Critics love it but consumers have no idea what it is.

And THAT is the problem!
I spent the morning with a client of mine. We were doing work on her laptop. She's got the Motorola Droid. It's laggy and freezes up ALL of the time. She has absolutely no idea how to use the device or what can be done with it. A few months ago, I showed her the Business Calendar app, but she just doesn't need what Android has to offer.
I've been showing her my HD2 with the BTTF WP7 ROM on it. I explained how the OS gently takes your hand and shows you what it can do, whereas Android is akin to sink-or-swim. You either are curious enough to learn how it works, or you're stuck device that you have no idea how to use.
When Verizon launches a few more Windows Phones, I'm going to help her get one.
Since MSFT doesn't do that good of a job getting the OS's name out there, I do my part.

The linked article isn't a review, or a news "report", but only a click-grabbing headline that makes short gushes of both Joe Belfiore and the history of WP7.
No quote, no reviews, no content, just the NYT playing off of CES for clicks/views

The Tide Might Be Starting To Turn...

Seen the 710 on Sunday NFL Countdown this morning. The break right before Picks when everyone is watching, playoff time. Funny what money and Nokia will do for you. I firmly feel 12 will be the year WP starts to turn the corner. The sky is the limit, it up to Microsoft to deliver.
I'll be waiting for Brady kick Tebow's butt today but, I hope it does become the year for WP7.
I dont just count billions of sales to be "making it", it's when it's accepted everywhere. When my local TV/Radio station that has iOS and Android apps, start offering WP7 apps and when the big apps/games hit on iOS/Android, they get a release the same week on WP7.
Then WP7 will really make it...

Agreed on everything, including I hope Uncle Bill and Uncle Tom teach young Timmy something about playing football in the snow.
Still, to me, it feels like the platform has a much needed second wind. The excitement over W8 plus the Metro update on the X-box dashboard and the Nokia's it feels new and different. Obviously it could all fall apart but I'm hopefull.
through out history there is little growth for the third player. I hope Microsoft will improve their product and raise awareness for Windows Phone!

Your "awareness" plea made me think of this ^
There was another post higher about "billions of sales" not being a qualified metric for realization of success. That, I just can't get my head wrapped around. Is windows a bigger success than mac, because of desktop sales?
Discus..
Well, windows phone still looks pretty dead to me

IT'S OVER!!! Nokia Lumia 900 TV Commercial #1

1. It's over!!!
2. Be Social
ENJOY!!!! They are pretty good.
The first one made me chuckle, we will see how nokia lives up to the hype
Sent from my MB860 using xda premium
I get it, but...
Cute, I guess.
Seriously, though, they gotta do better than this! Doesn't say anything about the phone.
It'll be good to finally see them on TV as well as follow up commercials for my new hero phone.
I like the "death grip example" (mock scenario) they posted.
They need to show what the phone can do. Okay to poke a little fun between goliath companies, but consumers need to know what they are buying into. I bought one of the first "Windows Phone" back in 2010, and liked that it was different and I could swap batteries. Seems I can't with this model. I'll hold onto my Lumia 710 for a bit before jumping up to the 900.It has same features, just not the big screen.
and..... #3 Thanks Megan Landry

Getting better. I'm ok if some of the commercials just give a sneak peak and some give a few more details like this one.
I think its actually pretty smart. A commercials job is to get people to think, ask and talk about a product. If it gets people in to a store to ask how it is different or to get more info etc... then it did its job.
In the US we LOVE to root for the underdog. eg.. "Firefox, take back the web.... "
We had a local restaurant thats gone statewide after their "Save the bird eat a xxxx" add campaign.
The only thing they could have done better in those commercials would have been to hook in to an underdog theme.
