04.22.06Journalistic IntegrityNote: Re-posted due to an accidental deletion When I woke up this morning, I was greeted with a couple of emails questioning me on a source for an article I wrote for MobileBurn yesterday - Motorola Patents Shocking New Silent Alert System. It seems as though both Allen from Mobiledia and I had published similar articles at almost the same time.

This is understandable, as apparently Allen had scoured the USPTO’s website and found this piece himself - quite a daunting task. The ...

I'm sick of Motorola. The handset business of Motorola is getting by on the success of the RAZR, so the company is ...

04.01.06CTIA BluesWhile I wasn't expecting HUGE things from the handset manufacturers from CTIA in Las Vegas this year, I was hoping for something to get me excited. I have seen most (if not all, you can never be too sure) of the announcements that Sony Ericsson and Nokia will be making (still under embargo though, so I can't reveal anything), and I'm not impressed. I have not yet seen anything that makes me excited. I have not been privileged to anything from Motorola yet though, and despite rumors of the opposite, I'm still hopeful that they will announce shipping of the Q smartphone ...

04.01.06At Least April Fool’s is a Saturday…April Fool's day is a Saturday this year (obviously), which is a great thing in my opinion. I feel really sorry for any company that actually needs to put out an announcement on April 1st of any year where that particular date falls during the week - no one would ever take it seriously...
