I admit that I like mobile devices a little much. Tomorrow we may hear more about the 3G iPhone that will be released later this year. The iPhone has started a new trend of paying way more for mobile devices than we ever have before. Carrier subsidies are soon to be a thing of the [...]
The interwebs are all atwitter with news of a big MacWorld banner spotted at the Moscone Center. It says “There’s Something in the Air”. Let the speculation begin.
My guess:
Internal 3G cards on MacBook Pro laptops (and maybe MacBooks). Of course, these will be HSDPA chips for the AT&T network.
If there is a media tablet (iNewton) [...]
A couple of days ago I put down my Palm Treo in favor of a Blackberry Curve (the red 8310 to be specific). Why did I choose this phone?
Last month when I was advising people not to buy new cell phones, I did highlight three phones that I did recommend: the venerable iPhone, the Nokia [...]
A couple of days ago I left Sprint for AT&T. Recently I posted that now is the wrong time to buy a new cell phone (as Chuck Bryant reminded me). So what changed?
First off, let me just say that there has not been a 180 shift in my position. For many people now is not [...]
I am thinking about using “Taps” as the ringtone on my Treo, in observance of the pending death of Palm.
I think fishwreck is spot on:
Absent some major, unforeseen development, I’d say it’s clear Palm is done. The company has undergone an absurd number of iterations (or a number of absurd iterations?) and each one has [...]
Rex Hammock has posted a great review of the Amazon Kindle ebook reader. The whole thing is worth a read. There is one point in particular that is interesting to me and I think Rex is spot on in his observation:
“The EVDO wireless connection is incredibly fast when it comes to downloading books. (However, there [...]
Now is the wrong time to buy a new cellphone. The landscape is going to change drastically over the next few months. If you ask me there are very few safe mobile decisions these days. There are some safe bets though; lets start with those before I detail why I think it [...]
Damn I wish I wasn’t so busy. I mean, I love what I am doing, but I am too busy to start another project. But…
If I was going to start a new project, I would enter an application in the Android Developer Challenge. What would my application be? Location tagging.
I have [...]
Last April, Palm’s CEO said:
“We will bring out more products this year on the existing platform, but you can also expect Linux-based products to come out from us this year as well. On the smartphone side, you can expect more traction around that in 08. There will be a transition time there.”
It is not unreasonable [...]
I buy a new laptop about every 18 months. This has been the case since my Dad bought me my first laptop in 1998 (an IBM ThinkPad 310ed, it was a great computer). It is almost like clockwork that I need a new laptop to be the most effective at my job [...]
