Roger H. Veteran Posted January 19, 2009 Veteran Share Posted January 19, 2009 (edited) http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/19/microso...y-unveiling-ne/ According to the good people at Neowin, Microsoft has a few big announcements for Mobile World Congress, which takes place in Barcelona next month. Apparently, the company will be taking the wraps off a cloud-based syncing service called SkyBox, a MobileMe-like system which allows you to sync and backup your Windows Mobile phone OTA, though there's speculation the service might be extended to non-WM devices as well. http://i.gizmodo.com/5134374/skybox-micros...-for-all-phones Next month at MWC, Microsoft's cloud services will crash to earth: SkyBox, SkyLine and SkyMarket. Neowin says that SkyBox is Microsoft's answer to Apple's MobileMe, the killer being that it's maybe for non-Windows Mobile phones.

Roger H. Veteran Posted January 19, 2009 Author Veteran Share Posted January 19, 2009 Does anyone notice something about those names? SkyBox, SkyLine, SkyMarket.... SkyNet not sure if you watch StarTrek but i'm sure now that's how The Borg gets started. :shifty: First Microsoft creates all this then (like EagleEye) the PC goes crazy and since it knows all our info it just starts to take over. We fight it and eventually kill off some of them but then they evolve from the robots in Terminator to just nano bots that inject into our blood and change us into them (saves on manufacturing costs too i'm sure. LOL ) :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
