In the latest episode of the Windows Weekly podcast, Leo, Mary Jo and I discuss Microsoft's plans for ARM-based Windows 8 versions, rumors of a Windows 8 Beta delay to mid-February, a Windows Store event next week, whether Office will come to the iPad, Xbox 360 sees record sales over Black Friday, SkyDrive gets a quiet but major update, some Windows Phone news, a new Microsoft Security Essentials beta, Yahoo takeover rumors, and Amazon's millions of Kindles sold.

 Picks
Experience Windows Phone on iPhone or Android.And then cry because you have to go back to your old phone. A new Windows Phone emulator gives you a chance to walk on the wild side.

Software pick of the week: Call of Duty: Black Ops Zombies for iPad

Activision delivers a version of the beloved Call of Duty "Zombies" games for the iPad (and iPhone). This one includes a classic Zombies mode but also "Dead-Ops Arcade," a top down shooter with 50 levels of its own. What's not to love? Well, it's a bit expensive ($6.99). But it's well worth it.

Enterprise pick of the week: SQL Azure Data Sync
MS seeks a way to share data between on-premises SQL Server and SQL Azure applications for hybrid on-premises and cloud-based applications.
