Amazing and Cool all at once.

A demo of NFC sharing between a Windows Phone 8 handset and Windows 8 tablet

WindowsblogItaly posted this quick demo of NFC sharing between a Windows Phone 8 handset, the Nokia Lumia 820, and a Windows 8 (actually RT) tablet, the Asus VivoTab RT.

As the video shows transferring files are pretty effortless, and the Windows will automatically open a viewer for the file type and asks where to save the content.

NFC is not strictly needed, as files can also be transferred over Bluetooth alone.

Hard to believe it, but a mere three days into the life of the new iDtenT index, it has closed the day at 9374, a loss of 626 points or 6.3%.

I'd like to introduce to you a new index today, Syl. The Non-iDtenT index is defined as the negative of the iDtenT index. The Non-iDtenT has gained 6.3% in three days.

To buy the Non-iDtenT index, you simply short AAPL and buy MSFT stock in equal monetary amounts. Pretty simple, huh?

So tell me Sylvester: Are you an iDtenT, or a non-iDtenT sort of investor?

Have I mentioned here before that a short of AAPL and a long on MSFT upon the release of Windows 8 / Windows Phone 8 / Windows RT, was perhaps the single most obvious investment strategy, ever?
