UI Centric, a user-interface design firm, has created an interface for the Windows Tablet. The interface looks a lot like the Windows Phone and Zune UI. In fact, with Microsoft looking to impose a touch-enabled  Windows 7 interface to its tablet has led the UI firm to create this overlay that will make the device more usable. The results are quite impressive. Check out the video.

Kevin Turner, Microsoft COO, said during a presentation yesterday that Europe will be first to get Windows Phone 7 phones. Americans will see the device on the market in November. Never before has a Microsoft executive been giving such specifics about release dates. Unfortunately, Kevin Turner does not mention about availability for Africa and Asia. No surprise here.

HTC never post much details about the updates on their website. All I know is that the update affects SMS and “amends the internal management of SMS functionality, and enhances SMS transmission stability” It’s pretty vague.

Anyway, the update applies to ROM versions between 2.51.xxx.x to 2.54.xxx.x

Download the update on HTC’s Support site.

Here’s an excellent interview conducted by Joshua Topolsky, editor in chief of Engadget, of Joe Belfiore, one of the brains behind Windows Phone 7. I also encourage you read the “in-depth blowout of Windows Phone 7″ by Engadget.

Enjoy!

Update: I’m editing this post to include other Windows Phone 7 previews by other sites who were lucky to be given a prototype device to play with:

I’m publishing the email i just got from Fring about the issue with skype.

As you may have noticed, Skype has blocked fring. We are very sorry for any inconvenience this Skype policy has unfairly caused you.

As loyal fring users, you deserve an explanation: Last week, following the surge in fring video calling traffic, fring service to Skype was temporarily reduced . Unfortunately, Skype and their legal team demanded not to restore your connectivity to Skype via fring.

Needless to say, we are very disappointed that Skype is now trying to muzzle competition, even at the expense of its own users.

While we regret Skype’s decision to block fring, we are committed to continuing to provide you with market-leading innovation, to keep you in touch with your friends, wherever they are.

On fring you can freely use the best mobile over internet communication like video calling, calls and chat anywhere (3G/4G/WiFi) on any advanced Smartphone.

So, if you are frustrated like us with communication barriers, and are just looking for a fun and easy way to stay in touch with your friends on the go, tell them about fring and

invite your friends to join fring here

We appreciate your support and look forward to continuing to provide you with great mobile innovations.

Let freedom fring!

the fringTEAM.

How come Skype still does not have an application for Windows Phone yet?
