    Can you start with a local account with a Windows 8.1 phone? Like you can with 8.1 computer? Instead of logging into Microsoft every time you turn the device on?

    Thanks

    Hi desertbluesman,
    Setting up a Microsoft Account for Windows Phone 8
    From what I can find, you can choose to use a Local Account during setup but the list here explains what you will get with the MS a/c. You obviously lose some options when you go Local. Neil.
