There's whole thread on April Fools jokes in which this featured over there -------->
 
I have a little HP PDA that runs MS DOS 5.0. Quite cool except the screen is bad, not back lit.

Oh, and I have a newer HP PDA, with a decent display, that has a DOS emulator. HP h2210, great P DA, way before iPhone and iPad, and it has rounded corners.

I downloaded the app yesterday morning and love it!

Had no problem navigating around the directories and startingthe programs, even Win 3.1! You can even edit the autoexec.bat file ;-)

MS did very well for a prank, lots of humour for us older folk who actiually worked with MS-OS. Well done.

Nice! :)
I'm going to hook it up when I make the move to Windows Phone, soon.
 
I used the built in camera and it was awesome. You can take ascii pictures. And you can use both the front facing an rear camera.

To get to it, do the following:

Open console
Type:
1. cd programs > ENTER
2. cd phone > ENTER
3. camera.exe

Have fun!
 
theres also a rock paper scissors games in the games directory, but you first have to load a mouse driver.
Cortana helps you through the process though
 
Don't you just love the old modem sound when connecting to the internet (either by typing programs c:\programs\phone\internet.exe who via the Windows 3.1 gui)?
