AT&T and Nokia are reportedly set to launch the Lumia 900 Windows Phone in the U.S. on March 18, according to mobile tech news site  BGR . It's nice to see that AT&T is expediting this release, as the Lumia phones, particularly the 900, were the  toast of CES  this year. But it's the proposed price that really lights my fire. BGR's "trusted source" says that the Lumia 900 will retail for $99.99 on a two-year AT&T contract. What the what?? If that's true – and AT&T has not yet given the Lumia 900 the technical green light for retail so it's a big IF – then that would be a steal for consumers. A hundred dollars for a smartphone with high-end specs such as 4G LTE connectivity, a front-facing camera, a 4.3-inch ClearBlack AMOLED display with Corning Gorilla Glass protection,1.4GHz Snapdragon processor and an 8MP camera? That's rock bottom pricing, folks. The iPhone 4S and comparable Android phones are in the $150-$200 range or ...

Windows 8 Release Date Microsoft  has finally confirmed technology's worst kept-secret, there will be a new version of the Windows operating system, and it'll be known as Windows 8. Well that's its code name for now at least anyway. The tech giant spilled some secrets on the look and functions of Windows 8, and in a bid to avoid even made the   Windows 8 Developer Preview available to all web users , in a bid to avoid the debacle seen with Windows 7 when the developer preview was leaked online. However, it failed to answer the big questions on everyone's lips – when is it going to be made available to the public. The operating system was previewed for the first time at its annual Build developer conference, which took place in California, this week. Steve Sinofsky, president of Microsoft's Windows division, described the operating system as a "reimagining of Windows from the chipset to the experience".
