I have started to build my own Windows system,
with my Lumia 920 and an Acer Windows 8 touchscreen laptop. It actually works very nice, using your
Microsoft Live account on both devices and the SkyDrive cloud storage. The only
part I am still missing is a Windows 8 tablet. My iPad is rather useless in
this configuration
There are of course still a lot of issues with
Windows 8, for example the Peoples App does not seem to be able to import Avatars
from your Windows Phone, but from Facebook it is no problem. It would also be
great to be able to synchronize an Exchange calendar on your office computer. I
guess these features will not be too far away, as many people have mentioned
these shortcomings.
The use of cloud storage feels still a bit
difficult to me, and I would not use it for sensitive data, as the user has no
knowledge on the use and security of ones files. I liked Dropbox for its
simplicity, but am now moving towards sole use of SkyDrive for reasons of compatibility.
