Hey Dan just to correct you with regards to your statement with regards to best android device if photography is your focus. The best device is actually the P30 pro because of the huge flexibility that the 3 lenses give you. The pixel might be slightly more consistent but looses immense because of the singe lens. Quality wise they are on par and depending on your taste you will prefer one or the other. I'm speaking as a pro photographer who does this for a living.

Ignite has way too many Windows panels for there to be no Windows Lite related annoucements, it would be very weird. It has to start getting talked about if they're going to get dev support for features. If the launch date is spring/summer there needs to be more lead time for developers, and as a new category and new OS variant, they're going to want to address how it fits into existing IT solutions. Build is too close to that. It will be bad if they wait till they're ready to launch to start talking about it.
