  • Apple's Solid Triple Play Will Be Hard to Beat  [View article]
    Based on the Apple Conference Call, I expect Apple to come out with some hot new computers (and a 'tablet') along with some price reductions to counter Win7.

    Win7 is just Vista SP3. MS has done a better job marketing Win7 but it is still Windows, with the virus issues, registry and .dll files.

  • Verizon Launches Direct Ad Attack Against the iPhone  [View article]
    Verizon doesn't mention that the iPhone multi-tasks where it counts:

    1. You can access voice and data at the same time with ATT/GSM (can't do with VZW/CDMA);

    2. You can play music or talk on the iPhone and use other programs at the same time.

    Plus, it remains to seen how 'open' the new Verizon phone will be. They have crippled every phone they have released so far.

    I'd be happy to take Levinson's seat at either company for half the price.

  • The Android Army: Verizon Wireless, Google Ink Collaboration Pact [View article]
    Wonder what VZW will cripple first?

    PS: I am sure there will be a 'tethered' limit, maybe 5 GB like the Verizon PC/USB devices.

  • Why Apple Should Start Wooing Verizon Like Google [View article]
    I think this marriage is a joke. Verizon is the most closed, controlling company in the world. Don't expect to see much here personally.

  • Palm's Oprah Moment [View article]
    Too little, too late...Palm is dead without Verizon...And Verizon and 'open' don't mix. Plus, Verizon just announced an Android deal.

  • Adobe Releases Full Flash to Everyone but Apple [View article]
    Adobe is playing a good job of 'poor pitiful me' with FLASH.

    I'm happy the iPhone doesn't have it. Less ads and so called artistic visuals!

  • Intuit Mints a Rich Deal [View article]
    I am afraid Intuit will screw up Mint, just like they screwed up PayTrust. I think they primarily buy companies to reduce competition. Too bad Mint sold out.

  • Stocks that Could Benefit from Health Reform [View article]
    The New Yorker article points out another aspect of why costs are high in certain areas of the country.

    Health care is a complex animal and high costs are related to multiple issues, tort reform and physician incentives being two big ones.
