Windows 8 comes with a number of enhancement for mobile broadband functionality. If you’re interested in the details I recommend you read the content I have referenced at the end of this blog post. But in short if your mobile broadband device meets the Mobile Broadband Interface (MBIM( specification then Windows 8 will load the inbox class driver (MBCD) so there is no need to install 3rd party drivers. If then the operator in a given country has submitted their connection information to Microsoft you can just establish a connection to the internet without the need of installing additional software or entering connection details.

Yesterday I received my new mobile phone. Everyone that has switched mobile phones once, knows the pain of getting all the data transferred to the new device.

I had heard about the My Phone service from Microsoft, a web based solution that allows you to backup and restore your mobile phone data to a secured web site.

So I signed up to http://myphone.microsoft.com. I had all my data synched from my old device to the new device within 15 minutes. This is what i did.

The task for this Saturday was to remote control my mobile phone. After a short search on the web I found MyMobileR

The first good ting about this application is that it is FREE ! Second it’s easy to install, within seconds i could remotely manage my mobile phone.

Using this application allowed me to perform an e-mail account configuration in just a minute, because you can use your PC keyboard to enter data, and that is a bit more convenient than typing on a mobile phone.
