Nokia Exec says iPhone, Android Handsets No Longer Appeal To Youth [My Comment on this article]
I read an article on Tech Crunch[Nokia Exec: iPhone, Android Handsets No Longer Appeal To Youth] today and i left a comment that i felt i should share on my blog.
My comment
I dont see what is wrong with his statement. According to the numbers he is looking at there is a growing niche in the market for something different and they feel that windows phone is what everyone will soon turn to.
Also what is wrong with talking trash about your sompetitors even when your product is not yet the best, i clearly remeber the late Steve Jobs dong that a lot even when apple was not good enough to compete with windows.
My question to the authur of the article, do you think windows phone sales will not shoot up when microsofts project with windows 8 if finally complete? To the untrained eye it looks like Microsoft is loosing out in the mobile and desktop markets but if you have taken even a sencond to look at Microsoft you would notice that a lot of changes are taking place. Have you even considered the potential impact of windows 8 and what it would mean to Nokia?
I kind of understand why Mr. Niels Munksgaard would talk like that, its not due to arrogance and being blind but he has some insight that you do not have.

Connecting to a WiFi Network in Windows 7 [is really simple]
I have heard it being said a hundred times over that it is
easier to connect to a WiFi network in Mac OS than in windows. I find that a
little annoying since it not entirely accurate especially when you are talking
about windows 7.
Of all the versions of windows, it is really simple to setup
and to connect to WiFi networks in Windows 7. I would only talk about
connecting to an existing WiFi network.
- Go to the system tray found on your task-bar
- Click on the network icon[circled by the yellow ring]
- A popup menu appears and if your wireless card is switched on, a list of available networks within range would show up.
- Click on the network you would like to connect to and click on connect. You can also double click on the desired network and it would connect.
- If a password is required you would be prompted to type in the password
- You’re Done!
Note: you would only get Internet access if the WiFi network
you are connected to has Internet sharing enabled. Also the network i connected to in this example didn't have Internet access so the yellow warning triangle appears on the network bars
