Why AT&T Isn’t Always the Big Bad Wolf

December 9, 2009 by Danny Brown with 166 views

If my friends are correct, I’m pretty fortunate that I don’t live in the U.S., have an iPhone and AT&T as my carrier. When I speak to people like Tim Jahn and Michael Schechter, they mention the crappy coverage and dropped calls they have to suffer on Apple’s baby thanks to the AT&T network. Being in Canada and on a... [read more]

Will Apple's History Repeat?

November 12, 2009 by Albert Wenger with 269 views

As a teenager, I was a die-hard Apple fanboy. The boy part is obvious. The fan part was the result of having and hacking an Apple II. Naturally, I was hugely excited about the arrival of first the Lisa (remember those?) and then the Macintosh. While I enjoyed programming the Macintosh — all the way through college — I was frustrated... [read more]

November 6, 2009 by bmagierski with 163 views

Here is an interesting post from Chris Dannen on FastCompany.com on Android vs. iPhone OS. While he misses the entire point on the 100k+ apps in the iPhone apps store, he does make a compelling point about the future of productivity with mobile + cloud computing going forward. However, the apps store can be overblown to a... [read more]

If Verizon’s Droid is good, that’s bad

October 18, 2009 by Chris Dixon with 143 views

I carry around an iPhone and a Blackberry Tour. I know that’s ridiculous. The iPhone is a great device on an awful network; the Tour is an awful device on a great network. If the rumors are true and the Verizon “Droid” is a great device on a great network, I’ll be the first in line to get one. But for the wireless ecosystem as a whole,... [read more]

Gee, You Had to Pay $2, Once, to Get News?

October 8, 2009 by Tim Berry with 190 views

Interesting juxtaposition: while much of the world worries about where we get real news, and particularly investigative reporting, while iPhone users are up in arms about CNN charging less than $2, once, for an iPhone app that includes ads. Megan Berry posted Do You Get What You Pay For? yesterday on the Huffington Post: CNN’s new... [read more]

Google’s Android phone technology is going where no iPhone has gone before – to the Verizon network. The two companies have announced a strategic partnership that will see more Android phones coming to market–some within the next few weeks. Integral to this agreement is a commitment by the companies to devote substantial resources to... [read more]

My Son Is a Genius (…and the iPhone is Too)

September 12, 2009 by EricWilliamson with 158 views

I got an email yesterday that made me get choked up a little bit, and go “WOW!” in awe too. The near tear was from fatherly love for my awesome son, and the wow moment was because what my five-year-old son had done made me realize that the iPhone is by far the most user friendly device in the evolution of technology and it is...

Social Networking – Past & future

July 30, 2009 by Kate Carruthers with 162 views

Looking back to 2007 – and it seems so long ago now – social networking was just starting to get a bit of buzz happening. Some of the social networks that we were talking about in 2007 included Bebo, MySpace, Second Life, and YouTube. Back in those days we were all talking about Second Life, and pondering how it might revolutionize... [read more]

Apple or AT&T: Please Sell Me A New iPhone.

June 10, 2009 by Dave Stein with 199 views

I spent three hours yesterday trying to buy a new “3G S”  iPhone. First I went on the Apple site.  I spent 20 minutes there. They wouldn’t process my order because they said I don’t get reception at my home where I registered for new AT&T service. The fact is, I do get service there. I’ve had friends and family receive and... [read more]

Measuring Social Marketing

March 26, 2009 by David Armano with 101 views

 Couple of days ago, I pointed you to a product I believe in and bought with my own money. Roger Von Oech's iPhone version of his Creative Whack Pack. I've been using the real world version of the cards for years and it's only natural that I have it on my iPhone. It's actually a very practical app and I'm looking forward to... [read more]

My iPhone went on a shopping spree

July 30, 2008 by Gadi Shamia with 38 views

You thought you only bought an iPhone. $199+ sales tax and you are all set. Little did you know that Apple disguised a little robot inside the iPhone that has one goal in life: boost the sluggish economy. Just like Bill Gates and his foundation Steve Jobs joined the philanthropic club of successful CEOs, dedicating themselves for the... [read more]
