- The Tech Industry's Dirty Secret
By Ed Hansberry
While the US has a tremendous amount of intellectual capital housed in companies like Dell, Apple, Microsoft and Cisco, few of their hardware products are made here. The vast majority are made in Asia, usually China or Taiwan. Work conditions aren't close to what many in the west are used to and right now, a rash of suicides are plaguing the Foxconn plant where Apples iPhone, iPod and iPad are made.

- U.S. Gov: Pre-Paid Phones Are For Terrorists
By Eric Zeman
Pre-paid cell phones -- you know, the kind you can pick up at Wal-Mart, Target or Best Buy for $20 -- often don't require buyers to provide any sort of identification. The U.S. government says bollocks to that. Today several senators introduced new legislation that would mandate pre-paid cell users to identify themselves.

Well, that was fast. Barely a week after Google announced plans to eventually shutter its online retail store for the Nexus One Android phone, the device has appeared for sale elsewhere. Looks like the first place it is available for sale is via i wireless for the hefty sum of $300 with a new T-Mobile contract.

But before you get too excited, realize that most IT groups won't so much be running toward this new collaboration strategy as slinking away from siloed systems that they never quite got running correctly.

- Why IT Must Sort Out App Mobilization Challenges
Application mobilization tools are both more effective and more confusing than ever. Meanwhile, today's smartphones represent the cutting edge of the computing industry. They're powerful computers, and your best and brightest employees wouldn't consider leaving home without their devices of choice.
