TELL US Your Questions About Mango!
 

Hey Geeks!

As you all know, we're all excited for Mango! Even more exciting is that Microsoft is working with us still to get you guys the latest info directly from their team. You might remember how they joined us a few months ago and announced their latest update live on our podcast. We're hoping to have future Microsoft guests as well, but for now, They want to know your thoughts!

If you have any specific questions about Mango, post them! We'll get them out to Microsoft and hopefully we'll hear a response some time next week and post it here and on our site front page. Now is your chance to be heard by Microsoft!

My question is the same as from the formal into of WP7. Will we be able to direct sync Outlook with WP7 without having to use the Cloud. I'm sure this will hurt sales to small and medium size businesses that don't have an Exchange setup.

Re: TELL US Your Questions About Mango!
 

I'm curious how the exchange sync works.
One of my favorite features of WM is how active sync works. I work in my office 80% of the time, so with 3 clicks/taps I can turn off the email sync, but keep contacts & calendar synced up. Also if its Saturday afternoon & I look at my phone I don't have to see an unread message from work (because I would HAVE to check it). Then, when I'm working out of the office, those same 3 taps can turn on the email sync. I once tried a Blackberry for 3 weeks, and while it was a nice phone, the inability to easily turn off my work email brought me back to windows mobile.

Can WP7 do this?

Also by browsing the boards I noticed that folks seem to be saying that its not very easy to turn bluetooth & wi-fi on and off. You have to jump menus to do it. On my TP2 I have a simple toggle button right on my homescreen.

Here's hoping big red gets a HD7S or 7 Pro

Are you going to allow any 3rd party keyboards at any point?

Re: TELL US Your Questions About Mango!
 

Man, the HD7s is the only reason I was thinking about moving to AT&T....

1. Remote Desktop(RDC) app for us Windows Admins
2. Wi-Fi tethering
3. backgrounds on the home page behind the tiles, will more customization be an option (maybe transparent tiles?)??
4. file access (USB device for My document files)

Is There a usb mass storage mode

can we download files and manage them in a file explorer that only gives u access to the free space? for example a mp3 we have uploaded on a site, download it to our phones and update our zune library all without needing to hook it up to the pc
