Actually, I found it quite interesting. You didn't have to read it, or comment.

What's wrong with some lighthearted news every now and then?

Are you having a laugh? This is the stupidest news article ever. Not to mention that I already revealed what this bird was in my last post.

And have you such an ego to think everyone reads your comments on a news articles?

Give me a break will you, this is a dumb news article no matter how you look at it.

@Mieky242:

If this article is pointless, why did you feel the need to tell people the name of this bird in your comments on the last article?

This article is doing exactly what you did, but just informing us who did not see you comment.

Forget about my comment, besides there is a big difference between a comment and a news article.

This post is necessary why...?

I dislike that bird, I dislike WinMo 6.5 - scrap this crap and bring on 7 - and consequently I dislike this article.

For the record ... not cute.
Looks like it's going to peck your eyes out.

+1 not cute
That bird image is awful and makes me think they are all fakes.
The photo is way too busy (especially the "crown" for a wallpaper.
The one you have shown with the speech bubble would actualy be a lot better

For people moaning about this news post, although I don't really care about windows mobile or the bird, it's nice to have a bit of lighthearted news as someone else said earlier. If we were having articles like this every day, then fair enough moan. But we're not.

I think the bird is very cute indeed! As for the post... well, it made me smile.

Have you people ever read the tag line for neowin? Where unprofessional journalism looks better. Anyways love the news article .
#11 CalumJR on 12 Feb 2009 - 23:31
Thanks for the info Chaks! It is nice to see some light-hearted news.

As for the bird... they could have picked a better image of it as least. Maybe one which is not so "in your face"
