Microsoft remains convinced that you'll like Windows Phone if you [only give it a try](http://www.engadget.com/tag/smokedbywindowsphone/). Accordingly, it just recently updated its [web-based demo](http://www.engadget.com/2011/11/29/microsoft-enables-android-and-ios-users-to-experience-windows-ph/) to reflect all the changes in [Windows Phone 8](http://www.engadget.com/2012/10/29/windows-phone-8-review/). If you let the web app access Facebook, you'll get a personalized sample of the OS on your desktop or mobile browser that includes resizable home tiles, Kid's Corner and other newer additions. No, it's not a full-fledged simulator, but it does give about as good a taste as you'll get without the real hardware in your hands. We also can't say that everyone will be sold on the concept -- still, it's worth a spin for anyone keeping their smartphone options open.
