Throwback Thursday: Remember When a Bluetooth Headset was a Must-Have Accessory?

September 10, 2015 By Stephen 4 Comments

The Borg, Lt. Uhura, and security guys wore them. People talked to themselves in public. Once upon a time, Bluetooth headsets were all the rage, filling mall kiosks and Best Buy stores. There were curving behind-the-ear loops, chrome blobs, and sleek black sticks like Apple's. And it seemed that everyone who was anyone had a Bluetooth headset to accompany their new Blackberry … [Read more...] about Throwback Thursday: Remember When a Bluetooth Headset was a Must-Have Accessory?

Begun, the Patent Wars Have

July 9, 2012 By Stephen 3 Comments

Every day, it seems there is a new lawsuit in the mobile phone industry. HTC, Motorola, Google, Microsoft, and especially Apple and Samsung are actively litigating their way through a thicket of patents. The same is increasingly happening in the rest of the IT industry.

Why Won’t My MiFi Charge?

February 15, 2011 By Stephen 9 Comments

I recently purchased a Novatel MiFi 2200 on Virgin Mobile (USA) as an emergency fallback networking device for Tech Field Day, and it saved our bacon on-site at Symantec. It literally saved our bacon. See, being a security company, Symantec had a strictly-controlled network that did not allow live streaming to Ustream. Since the CradlePoint PHS300 was in use by the delegates, … [Read more...] about Why Won’t My MiFi Charge?

How Apple Will Get Their Mobile Phone Mojo Back From AT&T

August 3, 2010 By Stephen Leave a Comment

Apple has taken a beating from the "in crowd" lately. In the mind of these technophiles, they've gone from hip to evil in just a few years. While Apple is lambasted for turning the iPhone "walled garden" into a jail, Google is applauded as the new bastion of openness and geek friendliness. This criticism focuses on the iPhone, especially with regard to the despised American … [Read more...] about How Apple Will Get Their Mobile Phone Mojo Back From AT&T
