Do take a few minutes to have a look at this rather fantastic offering from OnLive. Steve Perlman, CEO of the company, was invited on to the Uplinq stage by HTC’s Peter Chou to showcase what they’re doing with the all new HTC Flyer tablet.

Can you imagine shopping for your phone like this? Play the video and see what you think. For a long, long time I’ve maintained that this kind of online concierge is required by mobile retailers. 3 from B-Reel & B-Reel Films on Vimeo.
A year ago my friend’s mother had a really bad day. She got home from work one day to find the whole family house turned upside down. They’d been burgled. The burglars had been rather smart too. They managed to find and expertly extract all the valuables — from watches to televisions to PlayStations. The […]
Reader Kirk dropped me a note today about Put.io, a new online storage service that, as the site explains, fetches media files and lets you stream them immediately.

Well then. What a total waste of time that was
It’s problem Monday. A moment ago it was iTunes DRM annoying the hell out of me, and this morning it’s mobile operator front-end billing platforms. You know the kind I mean — the ones held together by sticky-tape and a lot of panicking by teams at Accenture, Detica or whoever it is that’s actually running […]

A note arrived in from reader David Bleja, to tell us about the new service he’s working on. If you’re in Australia (and we do have a big Australian contingent reading) do talk to David. – – – — I am the web designer for www.readytosms.com.au.

Here we go again. Broken record time. 1145pm and I have just remembered about my T-Mobile account. The other one. The poor black sheep account. The one that’s ALWAYS broken and that won’t ever go on direct debit. Because there’s always a few pence balance. Or T-Mobile’s SHITE system won’t take my credit card or […]
