Research In Motion's (RIMM) first touchscreen BlackBerry, the Storm, goes on sale Friday at Verizon Wireless. It's RIM's -- and Verizon's -- best hope to challenge Apple's/AT&T's iPhone this holiday season, so it has to be good. Good news for RIM: It is pretty good. Not as polished or sexy as Apple's (AAPL) iPhone, but a solid gadget that should sell well to BlackBerry email users, long-term Verizon (VZ) customers, or anyone who's turned off ...

Não foi por falta de aviso: ingleses/britânicos estão completamente desapontados com o novo Google Mobile App, que pouco reconhece das palavras que pronunciam pelo seu recurso de busca por voz. E alguns de vocês acharam o meu sotaque ruim, hein? Hehe. Os casos são bastante hilários: um queria achar o “MySpace”, mas foi levado a buscas sobre “Einstein”. Outro simplesmente disse “iPhone”, mas o aplicativo entendeu a requisição como “sex”. Um terceiro queria procurar a ...

What is Web 2.0 storytelling? As the phrase suggests, it is the telling of stories using Web 2.0 tools, technologies, and strategies. Since the name is fairly recent (and not yet widely used), it may not bear out as the best term for this trend. Another name may emerge, one better suited to describing this narrative domain. However, the term seems to have met with quiet acknowledgment to date, so it may serve as a ...

Here I was, thinking about my 2008 end of year predictions and the last few buzzwords for the year when I get a tweet from Peter Deitz and - the next thing I know - its January 2009. Well not really, but it is in Peter's world. The new SocialActions website is live and the "change the web" challenge will be announced in January.What's the point? Making it easy to take action. Putting action wherever ...

It's official: Verizon Wireless will start selling RIM's (RIMM) new touchscreen BlackBerry Storm on Nov. 21. The iPhone-ish smartphone will sell for $199.99 after subsidy and a $50 mail-in rebate, assuming you are eligible and sign a two-year contract. This is an important launch for both companies, as Apple (AAPL) beat RIM in unit shipments last quarter, and Verizon (VZ) hasn't yet had a credible answer to the iPhone. However, this is hardly an aggressive ...

The biggest U.S. Internet service providers, which include the largest phone and cable companies, will roll out updates to their network over the next two months that promise to make some peer-to-peer traffic faster and more efficient, we have learned. The results won't be immediate for consumers or ISPs, but the updates could make P2P downloads faster or video streams better over time. And just as important, the updates could someday save service providers money ...

Telephone companies pushing television services will gain customers by offering lower prices than cable or satellite providers, according to a survey being presented today by Heavy Reading. The survey, which consisted of about 200 consumer interviews, found that price, more than special interactive features, will dictate which provider consumers turn to. That’s grim news for the telcos, which have been spending heavily to lay fiber and upgrade their networks so they can offer the triple ...

Despite its problems, No. 3 wireless carrier Sprint Nextel (S) is still beating its rivals at a game they all want to win: Getting subscribers to shell out for mobile data services, ranging from text and picture messaging to mobile Web subscriptions, BlackBerry plans, etc. During Q3, Sprint subscribers -- not including Nextel, its walkie-talkie network with less-advanced phones -- spent an average $16.50 per month on data services. Even including Nextel, Sprint came in ...
