- Survey Suggests Palm Pre Will Be A Flop
Posted By Eric Zeman
A new survey conducted by ChangeWave Research shows that only 4% of those polled are interested in buying the Palm Pre at some point in the next six months. Most would rather have a BlackBerry or iPhone. Time for Palm to panic?

- Dell In Rumored Talks With China Mobile
Posted By Ed Hansberry
Dell is rumored to be in talks with China Mobile according to this article. It has been reported that Dell would be getting into the mobile phone business but those rumors generally focused on a North America plan. They may be headed to China instead, and have their first phone ready to go before 2009 is over.

- AT&T: Dear Apple, Please Let Us Have The iPhone All To Ourselves For Another Two Years
Posted By Eric Zeman
Well, here's a shocker. We finally learn that AT&T's exclusive distribution deal with Apple expires in 2010. That would be good news -- if AT&T weren't already trying to extend its exclusive iPhone deal until 2011.

- Blocking Cell Phone Signals In The Driver's Seat
Posted By Ed Hansberry
In an effort to get some people to stop talking when driving, an inventor named Fred Wenz has been working on a device that would block cell phone signals in the driver's seat of the car. They have a provisional patent according to this article. I'm not sure about you, but I am not keen on the idea of using this technology for a number of reasons.

of nothing new under the sun?
