Last week was Computex, but today everyone is focused on the likely launch of the iPhone. Given that some of the announcements at the show will have an impact on the future of devices like this, and that some of you will likely want to read something while standing in line, let's look at Computex vs...
Verizon announced the latest addition to its line of touch-screen mobile phones Thursday.

Last week I was in Shanghai, China -- which is truly an amazing place -- attending the Intel Developer Forum, where the company is officially launching its new Netbook and iPhone-like mobile Internet device platforms. This is actually the first time I've seen products that are based on Linux that ma...
Last week was filled with what could represent the beginning of one of the biggest overall changes to the cell phone market. The short-term change was the announcement of a solid and apparently well-controlled developer platform coupled with the long anticipated Exchange integration announcement. Ho...
Research In Motion has opted to intensify its challenge to rivals in the smartphone competition by calling in some celebrity help in the effort.

If you think the Apple iPhone is cool, wait till you see the Nuvifone that Garmin announced Wednesday in New York. It combines GPS, mobile phone, still and video camera, and MP3 and video player functionality with Internet access capability. Or it will, anyway, if Garmin can stick to its announced l...
Tomorrow we start the New Year, and for those of you who aren't still in line to buy a Nintendo Wii, it is looking to be a good one. I'm having my doubts about Apple though, as it would seem success is going to their head as they put Think Secret out of business, and I and a lot of others were trick...
It's Christmas Eve, and you're probably thinking more about what you are going to open tomorrow than anything else, so I was tempted to keep this light. However, I was pulled onto a TV news program to talk about what may be the most dangerous prank of the year and I want to make sure you and your fa...
Consumers shopping for touch screen-enabled mobile handsets this holiday season will soon have to wade through a whole slew of the newfangled devices as every week seems to bring another announcement from carriers.

OK, we clearly can't talk about the events of last week without mentioning the huge surprise "Halo 3" was in terms of popularity and execution.

Looking back at last week, it was a combination of news from the past and news from the future. Starting out the week, we had the EU ruling come down against Microsoft. I think if the company is smart, it can play this to its advantage and actually benefit from the ruling. What took up most of my we...
I just came back from the Atlantis resort and a nice vacation playing on some incredible water slides, swimming with dolphins, and floating on a mile-long endless pool. I had a ball, but it appears that others decided to be very busy in my absence. AMD, for one, brought out its long-awaited Barcelon...
In what's likely an effort to defend itself against the wildly hyped iPhone phenomenon, cell phone giant Nokia on Wednesday unveiled several new wireless devices and services, including a music-download offering to rival iTunes.
