With the opt-in model, the enterprise can blacklist the Upgrade Advisor app to prevent their users from upgrading prematurely. For more information about how to blacklist the Upgrade Advisor app, see the How to blacklist the Upgrade Advisor app section. Enterprises that have blacklisted the Upgrade Advisor app can use the solution that's described in this article to select the upgrade timing on a per-device basis. To provide enterprises with a solution that's independent of the Upgrade Advisor, a new registry key in the registry configuration service provider CSP is available.

A special GUID key value is defined. When Microsoft Update MU detects the presence of the registry key value on a device, any available upgrade will be made available to the device.

In addition to the phone itself—which, to be clear, runs the full-blown Windows 8 operating system, not the Windows Phone OS—i-mate promised a docking station that would turn the Intelegent into a desktop workstation. It was all the Windows 8 you could need, all in one place. At the time, PCWorld skipped the story.

The company was already in danger at that point, after losing a major partner in HTC and failing to ship a line of its own Windows Mobile devices. I-mate has since relocated from Dubai to Redmond, Washington, where it has about 25 employees, including contractors.

Many of them come from Microsoft, the company claims. Past troubles aside, the whole idea of a Windows 8 phone seems a little crazy. But after seeing several videos of the Intelegent in action, and after speaking to I-mate CEO Jim Morrison, we have to admit that our skepticism about the device is starting to fade.

We can't help but feel like this device might just be vaporware, but if someone actually manages to spot it on the MWC trade floor it would definitely be interesting to see the device in action. With Windows Phone 8 specifically designed to cater for smartphones, Windows 8 seems like a very strange choice to put on this sort of hardware, catering for a very small portion of the general public.
