INFORMATIONWEEK REPORTS: Overhauling Microsoft
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
To maintain its developer ecosystem and protect its apps
business, Microsoft has to loosen its grip on the Windows source
code and drive down costs, effectively making its operating
system open source. But that's only the beginning: The company
should restructure itself, pay more attention to cloud computing,
and get out of search. Here's why.

- When The Cloud Fails: Nokia's Ovi Service Loses 3 Weeks Of User
Data
Nokia is attempting to position itself as much more than a
handset company. It is rife with other services, such as Share on
Ovi, where people can upload pictures and save contact data
directly from their phone. That is, when it works. A recent
server crash completely lost three weeks' worth of user data.

- Skyfire Adds Social Networking Powers To Its Mobile Browser
Today, Skyfire announced the latest beta build of its mobile
browser for the Windows Mobile and S60 platforms. The biggest
changes with this newest version are native integration of
Facebook and Twitter feeds. Skyfire wants you to get your social on!

- I-Mate Readies Military Grade Phone
If your job description resembles that of Jack Bauer's, or you
handle your phone a bit more roughly than the average person
does, vnunet.com is reporting that i-mate is preparing to release
a ruggedized phone that doesn't require you to carry around a
brick-sized device.

- Palm CEO Stabs Palm OS In The Heart
Palm CEO Ed Colligan said to investors that the company does not
plan to introduce any more new handsets based on the Palm OS. It
is focusing all efforts on webOS and Windows Mobile moving
forward. In other words, Colligan just said that Palm OS, as it
has been known, is finally dead. But that's not all he said.

- Mobile Browser Wars
Well, maybe just browser skirmishes. Certainly nothing like the
browser wars on the desktop when Netscape and Microsoft duked it
out for supremacy in the late 1990s. There are a surprising
number of third-party browsers for mobile devices.

- Analyst Revives Cheap iPhone Nano Rumors. Again
This story has taken on a life of its own. Yes, it's back again,

- Is This The Next BlackBerry?
While you may be still enjoying your BlackBerry Bold, Storm, or
Curve 8900, you know Research In Motion has been working on the
next line of smartphones. It appears that The Boy Genius Report
got a scoop on one of these upcoming smartphones, and it should
make BlackBerry fans smile.

whoever's handling service these days for Xohm.

or even third) time Microsoft has renamed its platform.
