The Wisdom of Being Safe

The Wisdom of Being Safe

By Jeff Nolan on May 23, 2013

I was reading this article on the wave of executive departures at HTC on the heals of a successful product, the HTC One, and a clearly unsuccessful launch of the HTC First.

By Jeff Nolan on August 19, 2011

Today comes news leaked from an internal HP all hands meeting that the company is not abandoning WebOS, 15 months after acquiring it for $1.2 billion. This is how we get all our news about HP these days, leaked memos and meeting soundbites. Watch for two main arguments being presented, the first by the tech […]

Thoughts On The Dell Streak: I like the form factor. But then I don’t wear skinny jeans.

Thoughts On The Dell Streak: I like the form factor. But then I don’t wear skinny jeans.

By James Governor on September 6, 2010

Folks have been clambering over themselves to praise the new 7 inch Samsung Tab after its launch at IFA last week, but I have been playing with Dell’s 5 inch screen entry in the tablet game for a month already, so I thought I should get a few notes down for context. Pros Display – […]

The Superphone is the New Computer

The Superphone is the New Computer

By Zoli Erdos on August 16, 2010

The HTC  Incredible was the best Android superphone – for about a month, until the HTC EVO took over…only to be dethroned by the Motorola Droid X.  But that’s history now, we’re in the middle of the Samsung Galaxy S invasion now: Vibrant, Captivate, Fascinate … just about all major carriers offer their own flavor.  […]

The Chaos of BYOW (Bring Your Own Wi-Fi)

The Chaos of BYOW (Bring Your Own Wi-Fi)

By Zoli Erdos on June 15, 2010

It all started as an innocent joke: Robert Scoble was sitting in the front row @ Apple’s WWDC conference while I was following the tweetstream from home.  Little did we know out joke would soon turn serious, as Steve Job’s keynote demo crashed…

iPhone? Android? It's All Irrelevant when you Can’t Get a Signal

iPhone? Android? It’s All Irrelevant when you Can’t Get a Signal

By Zoli Erdos on May 6, 2010

Will iPhone users move to Verizon? – goes the speculation, based on a study published @ Fortune showing AT&T drop calls 3 times as frequently as Verizon. From my vantage point even dropped calls would be a luxury – meaning you can get a strong enough signal to place calls in the first place.  Apparently […]
