- First Impressions Of Adobe Flash Player 10.1
By Eric Zeman
InformationWeek had the opportunity to spend a few moments playing with Adobe's new Flash Player 10.1 for the Android platform. In general, it works well, but the "beta" label is well deserved. There are bugs, but Adobe will probably overcome them.

- Official Twitter Apps For BlackBerry, iPhone Updated
By Eric Zeman
Twitter recently rolled out some major updates to its official applications for the BlackBerry and iPhone platforms. The BlackBerry Twitter app received a large number of upgrades, including new features requested by users. The new iPhone Twitter app is a rebadged version of Tweetie 2.0.

- Apple And AT&T's Network
By Ed Hansberry
Either the service has gotten better for iPhone users on the AT&T network or people are tired of complaining about it. I tend to think it the former more so than the latter. The iPad 3G has been out now for nearly three weeks and predictions of doom and gloom for the carrier didn't come to pass.

- HTC HD2 And Sprint Hero Receive Upgrade Treatment
By Eric Zeman
At last. Sprint has made Android 2.1 available to the HTC Hero Android device. Additionally, T-Mobile has made a significant software update available to the HTC HD2. What do these updates offer?

- Latest iPhone OS 4.0 Beta Brings Tethering Option
By Eric Zeman
Late Tuesday Apple made the fourth beta of iPhone OS 4.0 available to developers. The newest software for the iPhone includes mostly minor tweaks here and there, but there's one huge surprise: tethering.

- Some Apps Won't Make It To Windows Phone 7
By Ed Hansberry
Microsoft isn't getting great publicity on Windows Phone 7 right now when it comes to developers jumping on board. No doubt there are hundreds, if not thousands, of developers getting their apps ready for the fall launch, but some key players have announced that initially, they won't be supporting the mobile platform.

- iPad Roundup: No Cash, iPod Killer, Keyboard Upgrade
By Eric Zeman
Lots of interesting headlines today concerning the iPad. First, an Apple Store refused to accept cash for an iPad. Second, analysts think the iPad is starting to cut into iPod sales. And last, an interesting piece of software upgrades the iPad's on-screen keyboard.

- Sprint Says Pre Didn't Work Out, Wants iPhone
By Eric Zeman
Sprint's Chief Financial Officer Robert Brust recently assured investors that the nations' third-largest provider of wireless services has seen the worst of its problems and things are looking up. Brust also accidentally ate his foot when he bad-mouthed the Palm Pre and said the company would love to have Apple's iPhone.

- E-Mail: Let's Get Unified
We define the next-generation communications utopia as a system that provides employees with e-mail, instant messaging, collaboration, presence, voice and video communication, and structured data integration via Web client, desktop or mobile device. 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. And therein lies the problem: There is such a thing as too much diversity.
