Verizon’s 4G Network to Match With AT&T

Though it’s still a ways off, Verizon and AT&T might be collaborating on the next iteration of their network, or 4G (4th generation).  This could allow phone switching between the companies, and the ability to roam on each other’s network.  Though the technology won’t be rolled out till 2009 (and probably not till 2020 where [...]

Fake Steve Jobs…Making Sense

No gPhone, but a G O/S

So Google finally made their announcement of a Open Google Mobile O/S.  No gPhone yet…they want to make that clear, but another O/S for the mobile companies to choose from.  Somehow I don’t see how this is a game changing event…just another Palm O/S out there for companies to make phones with.  After reading the [...]

R.I.P Chrysler Crossfire

What was already expected, Chrysler has reported that they will send off 4 cars into the sunset:  The Dodge Magnum, PT Cruiser Convertible, Chrysler Pacifica, and the Chrysler Crossfire.  The Crossfire has a special place in my heart, being an owner for about a year before some stupid ______ (fill in the blank) kids broke [...]

You’d Think There Was a Catch…

Living in DC for a few years, I thought the idea of the car sharing service was a good idea…if I had stayed in the area, I think I could have pulled off not owning a car seeing that there were vehicles all throughout DC and Arlington where I lived.  Flexcar always seemed to have [...]
