Wireless Year in Review

Irish writes "The wireless world had some surprises last year. WLANs, with easy but unsecure bandwidth, may disrupt the adoption of regulated/limited 3G networks. DoCoMo's iMode surprised many gaining 27 million users while Europe was disappointing. This developerWorks article takes a look at the big wireless security stories of 2001 and tries to offer some predictions on the future."

New palm thingy coming out Monday

[Alien54]

For what it is worth, Palm apparently has been promoting to its users, (heavy hinting in newsletters, etc) that a new palm product will be coming out on monday. (wireless, color, the whole bit)

The source of all this are the talking heads over at cnet radio. since they do a lot of repeats over the weekend you might be able to catch more details there. (anchor desk radio show, etc. especially the friday broadcast)

ah, here's the link to the story, reasonably detailed.

[cnet radio recently started broadcasting full time in Boston at 890 am, along with their usual broadcasts in the bay area. it is kinda funny listening to san jose traffic reports while cruising route 128]
