microsoft online store Microsoft Starts Online Store Allows Hardware Purchases and Digital Downloads

Microsoft has finally launched an online store. The store allows you to buy real-life goods like hardware, software discs and Xbox 360 games. The service also allows you to directly download software, like Windows and Office. Microsoft has offered no word, however, if they’d send along physical discs with a digital download to ensure a handy reinstall down the road.

The store is a bit of a bare bones experience, having just started. Look for it to pick up in the months ahead.

Video, Design, and E commerce? Woah. Talk about innovative. Cephrus is a small company set up in the heart of California’s Wine Valley and is producing some of the most innovative and cutting edge software and ideas that I have seen. By the looks of their portfolio, they mainly stick to wineries, but i wouldn’t be surprised to see this start-up handling more lucrative companies e-business, design, and video needs. Another Google anyone?

With Google phone rumors flying everywhere, I thought I would indulge. If I were Verizon, Cingular, or any other phone company I would be scared, a new innovative and borderline CRAZY idea has hit the rumor mill. Free Cellular phone service, thanks to – Google. You read it right. FREE cell phone service. How is is this possible?

Google has a plan. They are going to bid on a piece of the radio wave pie for 4.6 billion give or take a 100 million or thus providing a platform for new software developments in the cell phone industry. The plan is to make cell phone service like Internet browsers the web surfer can pick his/her favorite and go from there. Except in Google’s case, it would be free for the user by generating revenue from the ads placed neatly in the Gphone.

This is a very loose and sketchy rumor I know, but the bits and pieces I have gathered have gotten me excited – and you should be too!

Looks like the smartphone with a real keyboard is getting its own custom software–just like that other smartphone without a real keyboard. Nothing works perfectly yet, as with all software hacks (and all software, for that matter). I love competition, and this is a step in the right direction. © Copyright NerdGrind 2009.
