Hi all,

This info from cool blind tech. Normally, I don't send things from them 
to the list, but this is worth it!

This is taken from Tom's review of the windows 10 fall creators update, 
it's part 2 on the cool blind tech web site.

"Why would I want to link my Android or iPhone to a Windows computer? 
Are you crazy?

As of this September, no, I’m actually not crazy. This feature is now a 
part of Windows, having been promised almost a year ago and now making a 
slight appearance, or at least to that of a basic level. So far, you can 
link your phone and use a “continue on PC” app from the App Store or 
Play Store to send websites and links between your phone and computer. 
Content you send from your phone will appear in Action center, and then 
can be opened with an app of your choice. On iPhones, you can “share” 
content with the continue on PC app to then have it appear. Its quite 
revolutionary and one which will expand to clipboard and other 
cross-platform sharing. The nice upside of Microsoft here is that being 
part of the Windows ecosystem is not a requirement to enjoying this 
feature."
