I’ve got some iPad predictions for you. I know, I know, why don’t I just go ahead and jump on the iPad bandwagon like everyone else? Hell, this post will probably get lost in the bazillion iPad articles out there already but at least the loyal readers of Chia Town will get to ponder the [...]

The Rumor of Verizon Offering the iPhone
April 27th, 2009 · No Comments · Business, Deals, Gadgets, mobile phones, smartphones, Technology, Wireless
Today’s rumor mill is abuzz about Verizon possibly picking up Apple’s iPhone when AT&T’s exclusive deal runs next year. I must say I’m rather skeptical about this right now. I’m noticing most of the rumors credit the same source and all look the same. It just takes one rumor… So let’s think about this. The [...]

AT&T Must Be Afraid of the Palm Pre
April 24th, 2009 · 4 Comments · Business, Gadgets, smartphones, Technology, Wireless
Ha! You’ve gotta love it. I just read this article on Engadget. Based on this leak of an AT&T internal document I’d say AT&T execs are fearing the release of the Palm Pre. They put out this little memo to their peeps pretty much saying the iPhone is vastly superior to the Pre. That’s fine…I [...]

Palm Pre To Be Launched By May 17?
April 14th, 2009 · No Comments · Business, Gadgets, mobile phones, smartphones, Technology, Wireless
The rumor mill concerning the Palm Pre is going nuts right now. A few days ago there were two differing rumor opinions as to which “early” date the Pre would be launched. The first was Tax Day (April 15) and the other was May 17. As Tax Day rapidly approaches this seems a bit far-fetched. [...]

What’s Not To Love About Sprint?
April 10th, 2009 · No Comments · Business, Deals, Gadgets, Hardware, mobile phones, smartphones, Technology, Wireless
Recently a friend posted a link to a video of one of the new Sprint commercials to our little newsgroup. This of course put me on a quick little rant of all things groovy about Sprint. This then led to someone commenting “…you went there. We won’t be able to get him to shut up [...]

Barnes & Noble and Sprint to Develop eBook Offering
April 8th, 2009 · No Comments · Business, Deals, Gadgets, Technology, Wireless
You know I couldn’t let an interesting story (just a rumor for now) concerning Sprint pass me by. Rumor has it that Barnes & Noble is working with Sprint Nextel and an unnamed device maker to offer eBook services similar to the Amazon Kindle. Hm…interesting. Barnes & Noble tried this a few years back working [...]

Eager for the Palm Pre
February 20th, 2009 · 2 Comments · Gadgets, mobile phones, smartphones, Technology
It’s been a while since the Palm Pre was announced at CES and I’m still buggin’ for it. I tire of looking around and seeing everyone with their fancy little iPhones and I’m using a phone that you’d see Sonny Crockett talking on back in the ’80s. I try not to read too much about [...]

Palm Announces the Palm Pre
January 9th, 2009 · 2 Comments · Business, Gadgets, mobile phones, Technology
Palm unveiled the Palm Pre at the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) yesterday and wow…I must say I’m impressed. After watching them release weak update after weak update, I wasn’t sure what to expect out of their next phone. I’m more than pleased with what I see so far and am willing to stick with Sprint [...]
