    <p>Any news on when the first batch of PWAs are going to start showing up in the store? Also, are there any rumblings about a renewed interest in a STB / streaming media device from MS?</p>

    <p>Do you have any new information on Andromeda? I heard the rumor of the "Modern Workplace" event that might take place on May 15th, but nothing about Andromeda making an appearance (The whole event is a rumor, and one can only guess what might appear). Do you think Andromeda might be shown at BUILD or this rumored event?</p><p><br></p><p>I also heard Microsoft might release a developer edition of Andromeda first (which makes sense), this would essentially be the same as what they're doing with Hololens. Do you see a consumer edition coming out this year, or just a developer edition (If at all)</p>

    <p>Brad did you see the clipboard feature on the SwiftKey 7.0 update for iOS and Android. Do you think this is the groundwork for cloud clipboard?</p>

    <p>As a developer myself it seems Microsoft seems to be out of cool new features for windows. When I was younger I used to get excited about new UI changes and features use Windows on a daily basis but I don't see any new features that really matter anymore. Has windows development peaked and they are riding it out? </p>

    <p>Who in their right mind would have come up with <strong><em>Wear OS</em></strong>? Is this a sign for the beginning of the end for Google?</p>

    <p>Microsoft might be all in on mixed reality but is there any evidence that consumers are buying more MR headsets than bought (now cancelled) Lumia phones?</p>

    <p>Hey Brad got a question for you. </p><p>1) Why can't Microsoft bring Edge to store? Leave the engine in OS &amp; bring skin to store like chrome on Android. </p>

    <p>With more Windows 10 devices coming with cellular connectivity do you think Microsoft will ever turn Skype into a proper iMessage competitor (sending receiving SMS/MMS, calls, cross device sync, etc.)?</p>

    <p>is the ongoing "10" in he Windows version number failing to grab attention with twice-a-year trees falling in the woods fpr consumers? Should Microsoft go to big bang once a year updates with number increments and if so what features would justify turning the version up to 11?</p>
