iPhone

Windows Phone

Android smartphones

A general answer to your general question. Perhaps if you were more specific I could offer more insight. ;)

EDIT: That's what I get for speed reading at work, I missed the bit about Wall Street. I'd probably say iPhone. But still, why do you want to know about Wall Street specifically? Perhaps if we knew the reason for the question we could be more helpful.

nahhh no specific reason but wanted to know what those busy serious folks use out there or whether they follow the trend? because nowadays consumers only talk about iphone and galaxy yeah only these two lol

well, i consider myself a busy serious type and use an iPhone, it's a company issued handset.

a friend of mine who is director of a successful cloud computing consultancy runs a Nokia Windows Phone 7

Not many 'serious' people i know use BlackBerry any more unless prescribed to them by their office. The ones that do, strongly dislike them imo..

why do you care whatever the reason is going to be that i want to know about this lol wtf

because it gives context :)

ahahah maybe you should? :D :D :D

anything that you have in mind? a particular model that you wanted to purchase?

personally i have a 4, some people have a 4s.. i don't think anyone has a 5 yet.

they only get replaced if they break to be honest, maybe i'll drop mine soon :D

Because context is important when asking a question. If you want to know because you plan on working on Wall Street and want to know which device to be up-to-speed on, the answer will be <X>. If you want to know because you think Wall Street is a good indication of what makes a corporate device, the answer will be <Y>.

i think there is serious consideration to switch to WP8.

We are a Microsoft house, and everything we do from the systems we use to run our business to the solutions we provide for clients are MS based so this would make sense.

Not sure when a decision will be made though, i don't think it will be a sweeping replacement though either.. more of a 'recommended' handset, as i'm sure some people will like to hang on to their iPhones :)

I work at a major retailer which sells phones from the top three US carriers (AT&T, Verizon, and Sprint), and I'd have the say the most popular phones we sell are the Galaxy S III, iPhone 5, and iPhone 4/4s.

    • Laptop Processor Question

      By goretsky · Posted

      Hello, I am not as familiar with AMD CPUs as I am with Intel's, but as I understand it, that's a mid-range CPU from about three years ago.  I would think it to be fine for everyday casual-type use.  A larger SSD might be better, but with storage prices these days that's a decision that has to be carefully thought about.

    • Ocenaudio 3.19.5

      By Copernic · Posted

      Ocenaudio 3.19.5 by Razvan Serea  Ocenaudio is a full featured, fast and easy to use audio and music editor. It is the ideal software for people who need to edit and analyze audio files without complications. Ocenaudio also has powerful features that will please more advanced users. To assist ocenaudio development, a powerful toolset of audio editing, analysis and manipulation called Ocen Framework was created. ocenaudio is also based on Qt framework, a well known library for cross-platform development. Cross-platform support ocenaudio is available for all major operating systems: Microsoft Windows, Mac OS X and Linux. Native applications are generated for each platform from a common source, in order to achieve excelent performance and seamless integration with the operating system. All versions of ocenaudio have a uniform set of features and the same graphical interface, so the skills you learn in one platform can be used in the others. VST plugins support Ocenaudio supports VST (Virtual Studio Technology) plugins, giving its users access to numerous effects. Like the native effects, VST effects can use real-time preview to aide configuration. Real-time preview of effects Applying effects such as EQ, gain and filtering is an important part of audio editing. However, it is very tricky to get the desired result by adjusting the controls configuration alone: you must listen the processed audio. To ease the configuration of audio effects, ocenaudio has a real time preview feature: you hear the processed signal while adjusting the controls. The effect configuration window also includes a miniature view of the selected audio signal. You can navigate on this miniature view in the same way as you do on the main interface, selecting parts that interest you and listening to the effect result in real time. Multiselection for delicate editions To speed up complex audio files editing, ocenaudio includes multi-selection. With this amazing tool, you can simultaneously select different portions of an audio file and listen, edit or even apply an effect to them. For example, if you want to normalize only the excerpts of an interview where the interviewee is talking, just select them and apply the effect. Eficient edition of large files With ocenaudio, there is no limit to the length or the quantity of the audio files you can edit. Using an advanced memory management system, the application keeps your files open without wasting any of your computer's memory. Even in files several hours long, common editing operations such as copy, cut or paste happen almost instantly. Fully featured spectrogram Besides offering an incredible waveform view of your audio files, ocenaudio has a powerful and complete spectrogram view. In this view, you can analyze the spectral content of your audio signal with maximum clarity. Advanced users will be surprised to find that the spectrogram settings are applied in real time. The display is updated immediately when altering features such as the number of frequency bands, window type and size and dynamic range of the display. Ocenaudio 3.19.5 changelog: Fixes crashes related to audio devices on Windows (DirectSound and ASIO) Fixes several crashes and memory corruption issues Fixes opening several headerless files at once, which previously dropped all but one Improves batch export by suggesting and remembering the destination folder Fixes accented and non-Latin characters in VST plug-in and compressed-archive file names Adds zstd compression support and updates the archive library Other bug fixes and improvements Download: Ocenaudio 64-bit | Portable | ~40.0 MB (Freeware) Download: Ocenaudio for Linux and Mac OS View: Ocenaudio Homepage | Screenshot Get alerted to all of our Software updates on Twitter at @NeowinSoftware
    • Limited Prime Day deal sees Amazon Echo Show 11 is at its lowest price yet

      By ad47uk · Posted

      I did think about a Echo show once and it would be useful to see what my cameras see. But my brother got one and I changed my mind. Adverts and not really worth the price just to see my cameras. I have a load of dots and a Echo Gen 4, they will do.
    • The Trump administration doesn't want you to use OpenAI's GPT-5.6 without its approval

      By ad47uk · Posted

      I asking where you are from or live, because if you don't live in the U.K, why are you so bothered? That is another reason I voted out, E.U and people poking their noses in where they should not be. Sadly we still have it, Trump, and his cronies. Putin as well and no doubt others. It makes no difference what we believe, if we made the right choice or not, we are out. As I said to someone when the news first broke we have voted out, we just need to make the best of it. I have no problems with closer ties to the E.U, we still need to trade. Just don't want to be in their club.
