BlackBerry Bold in your region
June 24th, 2008 ·
Just got an opt-in email from BlackBerry on the new BlackBerry Bold. Not sure if this is a “keep you hungry” note or more along the lines of “we’re almost launching.”
In the email:
“Stay tuned for more updates - we’ll let you know when service providers in your region begin offering the exciting new BlackBerry Bold [...]

Morning run - Nike+ and GPS track… And honeysuckle

The news of the week (month/year?) is the $44.6 billion offer from Microsoft to acquire Yahoo!. Robert Scoble blogs the intelligence of Google’s email and Dave Winer drops thoughts on Yahoo’s options based on TechCrunch blogger Mike Arrington’s analysis.

Back to the iPhone
February 2nd, 2008 ·
A while back I wrote about switching to the BlackBerry 8800. The long route to that BlackBerry was because I wasn’t entirely happy with the iPhone - it was just a glorified phone/iPod when released. Now that Google Mail supports IMAP IDLE, 3rd party apps are running, and the 1.1.3 update can be used on my preferred T-Mobile (with [...]
