Hi Ian (and Stephen), No I was absentmindedly on Windows 7 where I do the bulk of my normal work. In a tiny hint in some web search I saw a comment about no support in Windows 7. I just went over to a VM running VS2013 retail and it has lots of phone templates, so there you go! I staggers me though, as I thought it was all simulated and I find it hard to believe a certain type of VS project needs Windows 8. That means that Windows 8 is actually useful for something!!
