Personally, I don't care what's on my phone. Its all just a mirror of whats in the cloud anyway. I could destroy my phone (or lose it) and wouldn't lose anything except for the device itself.
The whole thing about whats better is all well and good. I like there are multiple platforms, it keeps everyone trying. They all get better over time and everyone wins. Right now i'm 100% Microsoft devices (still have a couple of Android devices that are still current but hardly use them). That may well change in the future, I won't promise anything. Friend of mine spec'd up a fancy gaming laptop ($8000 worth) and I said, specs sound pretty good but if you spend the $8k now it will be worth $1k in 1 to 2 years. Which is exciting because it means in a couple of years the power of devices will be another leap on what they are. Exciting times. My favourite device is still my 8" tablet with windows 8.1 on it. So sweet being able to carry around a computer not much larger than my phone (remember I have a 6" phone lol) that can be plugged into screen and keyboard and function like a full PC. It makes me want to squeel with glee. :) On Fri, Feb 7, 2014 at 1:42 PM, Ken Schaefer <k...@adopenstatic.com> wrote: > From the earlier link (about 1/3 of the way down) > > *Notes* > > - Your phone will wait for a WiFi connection to automatically save > backups.
