Yes, we know it will at least be codenamed Windows 8. No, despite all the rumours, we don't know very much about it. Over at TechRadar, I run through the eight things we do know about Windows 8.

WinMo 6.5 Today screen fail

I've been using the WinMo Today screen. I like it. It's pretty. It shows my ncie background. It shows new email and texts on the same page.
