Thank you for the clarification. I had assumed there wasn't much that could be done about the calendar "monthly view". I do think MS should give us the [i]option[/i] of displaying our actual appointment data there as well as the then necessary zoom option. Who knows, maybe we'll get lucky and get those changes in a future update (MS is actually pretty good about providing updates) and Nokia has sen
@ MadDeez, Glad to hear you seem to be getting your issues worked out. If you don't mind my asking, what was it the Nokia rep suggested to you with regard to the calendar? It certainly seemed to me that there was no way to change the size of the monthly view or change it from displaying those latin phrases to actually displaying microscopic printed sections of your own appointments. Any detail you could provide with regard to t
When you log into the Stardock store does it not show you the product keys for your past purchases? I haven't logged in in a while so maybe it's been changed but I believe it used to show the registrations there.

@ WebGizmos Yes there has been gun-violence, even mass gun-violence in other nations other than the US.......so? The US claims the title of same in a very big way, and is also the only nation (of those first-world nations who [i]have[/i] experienced such gun-violence) to be in such staunch denial about what it will take to [i]really[/i] change that. That is all that can and needs to be said. Everything else is just circular reasoning which does nothi

OK...let them demonstrate their understanding/competence and/or social responsibility and voluntarily profer ALL their multi-shot semi-autos, etc for destruction.

I really don't understand why Americans always seem to worship to the great power of the gun without being concerned about the great fear the gun perpetuates. Fear begets violence afterall and that is a fact not some bullshit someone dreamt up. Carguy, you keep holding up Germany as an example of how terribly things go wrong when there aren't enough guns in the hands of the people, as if more public [i]fear[/i] of everyone around them is
[quote who="vStyler" reply="173" id="3295728"]Fact is.. There are examples of both points of view.... no one can win this argument.

@vStyler I have living relatives in serveral major european cities, several canadian cities, and a few brave ;) ones living in the states. None of my relatives have ever seen gun-violence (or any of the violent acts you described) save for something on television and my non-US relatives, like me don't have to live in fear of it [i]possibly[/i] happening.

For all of the back and forth in this thread. I would like some american (any pro-gun-toting american) to [i]clearly[/i] point out to me how citizen gun ownership (particularily automatic weapons) in the US makes for a [i]safer[/i] public and why if that is true, there are [b]exponentially[/b] more gun-related deaths per capita in the US compared to any other first-world nations?

Island Dog posted on Facebook the other day about how this phone does not like Gmail due to the disputes going on between MS and Google. As for myself I have never owned a smartphone.

@pacov I still haven't [i]confirmed[/i] that app as working for one's SIRIUS subscription. I am still trying to find someone I know who has a subscription so I can test it with my phone. I'll let you know if I can [i]confirm[/i] it working for you. The tethering works for me without paying extra, but then I'm probably not the best person to test this for you as I have a "special" plan with my provider. As far as "modding" goes

Well I can't speak for ID, but I also claim this phone to [i]currently[/i] be the best available on the market and: [quote who="the_Monk" reply="31" id="3290724"] I have owned a myriad of smartphones to date (various models of the iPhone, several Samsung and Sony droid devices, and windows-mobile devices of the past) and....

I understand all of that. My point was I didn't understand your reaction to the fact that the "place holder" text is still there.....apparantly by design. That is all. EDIT: In my view it doesn't matter what they "scribbled" in on the [i]monthly view[/i] since that view really is the least-used view. The only reason I for instance would ever go to the monthly view would be to see what day a certain date in the past/future
[quote who="moshi" reply="68" id="3294773"] rofl .... they forgot the placeholder text? and nobody at MS or Nokia noticed that? no, this is not a feature, but poor in-house testing.[/quote] I don't know what you mean? On Windows Phone 7-8 devices there is no way to zoom on the [i]monthly[/i] calendar view and if they had your actual appointments displaying they would be impossibly
@MadDeez Sorry to hear that, but as we all know......not everything is for everyone. Having said that, here are a few "FYI"'s just in case. The small text you see on a calendar day in the WP8 calendar in [b]month view[/b] are latin [i]text-markers[/i] only. They are not your actual appointments and are only there to show you which days you have appointments on. The more appointments on a day, the more latin text markers.
