It was pulled for bugs. This is the first official push of 7.8 my AT&T Lumia 900 has seen.

Sorry sir you’re incorrect. My AT&T Lumia 900 never got the the update and neither did loads of other users as you can easily see on the wpcentral forums. It was pulled for bugs pretty early on.

It was pulled for bugs or something of that sort.

or was it a case of better to have something than nothing as all?

That’s how I’ve always interpreted it as a WP7 user.

Dedicated devices still have a place in the market. I like products from companies that have focus in a single area. I own a Nokia phone because they make phones, it’s what they focus on as a company. No resources or revenue streams are being diverted to fridges or circular saws. I don’t generally regret my Google TV, it’s not a bad product. It does what I wanted it to do but I can tell 2 years later it’s not a focus area. If I needed to buy a streaming device today it would be from a smaller more single focused company like Roku.

I’m sure loads of each will sell. Surely both can have a place in the consumer mind share?

Never mind. The app just didn’t pop anything up the first few times I tried it (it however kept saying “syncing”). I relaunched, hit sync and a login dialogue appeared. I was just assuming incorrectly!

I went home to try this, signed up for a Fitbit account and then found out this app is designed to sync to a Fitbit device, not straight to a Fitbit account. I’m guessing no API for that, wouldn’t be in the interest of a company trying to sell the devices. I was wanting to push the data over to MyFitnessPal only ;/
