Microsoft sends invites for Oct. 29 Windows Phone 8 event

Hello, hello, hello

Microsoft isn't hibernating this fall as it's gearing up for the Oct. 26 launch of the Windows 8 OS and, TechRadar learned Thursday, the Oct. 29 reveal of Windows Phone 8.

Press invites are going out and TechRadar will be on hand to "Meet Windows Phone 8," as the company's save-the-date note suggested.

The event's going down at 10 a.m. PDT in San Francisco, nearly 3,000 miles from its W8 New York City event a few days before.

We've tinkered with the mobile operating system before and our hands on review is here, but Microsoft is sure to reveal some juicy details come that Monday.

Joining the party

A basketful of Windows Phone 8-running machines have seen the light of day recently, from HTC's Windows Phone 8X and Windows Phone 8S to Nokia's Lumia 920 and 820.

Samsung's even in on the fun with its Ativ S smartphone.

Now, Microsoft's actually letting the world in on what these manufacturers have apparently already seen.

TechRadar heard word Oct. 29 would be WP8 birthday, so to speak, and now we can't wait for the festivities.
