Dr. Watson - Older, Wiser, More Apologetic
Posted by Jon Westfall in "SOFTWARE" @ 04:00 AM
"Remember the Doctor Watson on Windows NT 4.0? The famous doctor has morphed in to Windows Error Reporting, and now the same technology is present on your Windows Mobile 5.0 based devices to track and report the errors. Unlike its desktop cousin, the Windows Mobile version of Error Reporting is turned off by default. Recently I turned on the Error Reporting functionality on my Smartphone and here is a quick look at what you can expect from this feature."
Kris over at SPT has put together a nice quick look on what exactly Error Reporting does in WM 5. The feature is disabled by default, but Kris recommends enabling it - after all, why not let Microsoft tell you it's sorry and get that warm fuzzy "I'm helping remove bugs" feeling when your device crashes?
