<description><![CDATA[Microsoft has a new Windows Phone 7 update resource.(Credit:Josh Lowensohn/CNET)Windows Phone 7 owners now have a resource that provides them with basic information on when their devices will receive their next update.The appropriately named &quot;Where's my phone update&quot; Web page lists six availableWindows Phone 7 devices in the U.S., along with the status of software updates--in testing, scheduling, or delivery. The resource will be updated once a week.When a device is in the testing phase, its software update is undergoing &quot;mobile operator network and quality tests.&quot; Once that's complete, it moves to scheduling, at which point the software giant is deciding which day to launch the update. According to Microsoft, scheduling takes up to 10 days. After that period, the company launches the update to customers &quot;in batches.&quot; According to Microsoft, it could take Windows Phone 7 users &quot;several weeks before you receive notice that an update is available to you.&quot;Microsoft's new resource, which launched yesterday, comes just a day after the company started to roll out its latest Windows Phone 7 update, which includes the ability for users to copy and paste text. It also boasts better searching for the Apps Marketplace and speed improvements.But as the phone update page shows, the chances of many users getting their hands on the update anytime soon seem slim. The Dell Venue Pro, HTC HD7, HTC Surround, LG Quantum, and Samsung Focus are still awaiting the February update, which featured minor improvements. With the March update, only the Dell Venue Pro and the HTC HD7 have made it out of the testing phase.Of course, there might be good reason for Microsoft to want to take its time with these rollouts. Last month, the company started updating Windows Phone 7 devices, only to find that the update caused what Microsoft called a &quot;technical issue&quot; with a &quot;small number of Samsung phones.&quot; That &quot;issue&quot; rendered some of those phones inoperable.After nixing the update and releasing it days later when issues had been addressed, reports surfaced claiming the updates were once again causing problems with Windows Phone 7 devices.<br/><br/>0 Vote(s) ]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[Xbox 360(Credit:Microsoft)Microsoft'sXbox 360 sales are so steep that the company is having trouble keeping up with demand, claims Xbox Live's director of programming.Larry Hryb, who is better known as &quot;Major Nelson,&quot; tweeted yesterday: &quot;I found out we ran out of consoles at end of the month (!) so don't expect to win Dec.&quot; The &quot;win&quot; is in reference to unit sales rankings for game consoles that market researcher NPD is set to release today. Basically, Microsoft is saying that if it isn't No. 1, the cause is actually its popularity, not lack thereof. The situation apparently won't ease up for consumers still hoping to get their hands on the Xbox 360. Major Nelson reported in a follow-up tweet that &quot;Jan/Feb supply is tight as well.&quot;For now at least, Xbox 360 units seem to be readily available from several retailers. The online stores for Amazon.com, Best Buy, GameStop, and Wal-Mart all have Microsoft's console in stock. The companies promise to ship units within 24 hours.But if Microsoft did indeed run out of consoles last month, recent sales estimates released this week by Wedbush analyst Michael Pachter could be off.The analyst estimates that 2.5 million Xbox 360 units were sold in December, trailing only Nintendo'sWii with 2.6 million units sold. If Microsoft hit that mark, the company would have seen 91 percent growth year over year. However, Pachter's report to investors made no mention of any Xbox 360 shortages.But we won't know for sure if Pachter's estimates were too high unless Microsoft reports actual sales figures. Last year, NPD stopped publicly sharing unit sales for hardware and software. Since then, the three main console makers have, at times, reported unit sales on their own.<br/><br/>0 Vote(s) ]]></description>
