Microsoft Outlines Windows Phone 7 Development Details
Microsoft is slowly (slooooowly) making its way back into the mobile phone arena with the impending Windows Phone 7 initiative.

Cool Like Clooney: Check Out These ‘Up in the Air’ Travel Apps
So no, Up in the Air didn’t win best picture Sunday night. And I sort of thought that was a shame (in my year-end top ten list, it was the only movie to beat out Avatar for my top slot).
But the movie is out on DVD and Blu-Ray today, so you can now see what all the critical clamoring was about around the holidays, when the George …

Google Launches Gesture Search for Android Devices
This takes me back to the olden days of 2003 when I was still rockin’ out with my Palm Pilot.
Google announced Gesture Search late yesterday as a new addition to Google Labs for Android devices running v2.0 and higher. It’s a pretty straightforward app but it has to be open to work. Sort of defeats the purpose if you ask …

AT&T Chief Says iPad is a “Wi-Fi driven product”
This is rather interesting but not at all surprising.
AT&T CEO Randall Stephenson doesn’t expect to see a spike in traffic from the iPad on his crippled network because the device is a “Wi-Fi driven product.”
He makes a valid point about consumers not wanting to tack on an additional subscription though. I mean, who …
