Updating the Samsung Moment’s software. Egads…and this is why Apple continues to be successful. They just make things easy to do. I bring this up as I had just finished updating the software for my Android phone.
First, some background. I’ve got a Samsung Moment running on Sprint’s network. Love it! Love Sprint’s network, love the [...]

Will Sprint and Palm Help or Hurt Each Other?
April 6th, 2009 · 4 Comments · Business, Business Practices, Technology, market share, mobile phones, smartphones
I’m sure by now you’ve all seen my fascination with Sprint Nextel and Palm. I think Sprint has a great network (nice and speedy…nice!) and Palm is an interesting case as they’ve gone from market innovator to laggard and now possibly leader (or at least competitor) again with the Pre. Examined separately, each company has [...]

Eager for the Palm Pre
February 20th, 2009 · 2 Comments · Gadgets, Technology, mobile phones, smartphones
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, Technology, mobile phones
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 [...]

Palm Becoming More Irrelevant With Latest OS News
October 9th, 2008 · No Comments · Business, Other, Rant, Technology, mobile phones
Why Palm, why?!?! It’s not ground-breaking news, but it is official news at least (rather than the many rumors that were flying around for a while). Palm’s next OS, code-named Nova, is due to come out in the third quarter of 2009. Two thousand NINE!!! Originally slated to come out at the end of 2008 [...]

Year Of The Smartphone
June 13th, 2008 · 1 Comment · Business, Business Practices, mobile phones
2008 certainly seems to be the year of the smartphone. Sure, smartphones have existed for years. In fact I remember way back in 2001 when someone was talking about this “BlackBerry” device that allowed people to read their emails. Huh? What were they talking about.
Over the past few years it was mainly business people that [...]
