Microsoft: Windows Mobile Total Access has changed its name to Windows phone Insider
November 07, 2009 [General]
While competition of Microsoft is working on new features in their operating systems - like 1000 new APIs in iPhone OS or FREE turn-by-turn navigation in Android - in Microsoft it's all about marketing, marketing and more marketing.

Microsoft since few months has been renaming everything from "Windows Mobile" to "Windows phone" but it's pathetic that still in many places both these names occur and it is very confusing to users. Even in URLs still "windowsmobile" is there!

Latest change is "Access" to "Insider":
