Even though this is Microsoft’s last CES keynote, that has not stopped them from bringing the news. Last night they announced multiple LTE Phones the Lumia 900 and HTC Titan II and Kinect for Windows. In addition to last night’s splash today they announced a host of new Windows Phone games. The titles include Xbox 360 favorites Need For Speed Hot Pursuit and Splinter Cell. I can see that after February, my productivity level is going down.

The Nokia Lumia 800 has reached the FCC and it is only a matter of time before some US carrier will be selling this beautiful Windows Phone 7 device. Rod and I had a chance to play with the Lumia at the Microsoft event in New York a few weeks ago and found it to feel great in the hands. No word yet exactly which carrier is getting this device but it is a good bet it will work on AT&T.

Everything about the camera on the HTC Titan has been perfect so far until Jerome from wingadgetnews.com came across a video recording bug. It seems while recording a recording, if the phone rings, the audio is lost from the recording. When testing this on the Samsung Focus S Windows Phone, the device kept recording without issue. Both devices shut off the video if you actually answer the call so it seems that if you are recording something important you may want to switch on Airplane mode.
