Posted on June 16, 2010 | No Comments
You know, not all of us want a smart phone. There are people out there who only use a mobile to make calls, send texts, and listen to a few tunes.
They're not the ones reading this blog, though. Maybe you know one of them and want to pass this information on?

Verizon misses the point of the Kin, prices it out of its market
Posted on May 5, 2010 | No CommentsWell, there goes that. The Microsoft Kins seemed like a good system. Online reviews are somewhat positive, at least most say the Kin shows potential. But it doesn't matter. Kin One and Kin Two are likely going to be the only ones of their kind and will only be around for a short while. Verizon killed the platform when it decided that these feature phones need an expensive smartphone data plans.

Project Pink Microsoft phones coming to Verizon
Posted on March 4, 2010 | No Comments>
Remember Project Pink? Whatever Microsoft's secret hardware initiative was? Well, it's real and it's coming to Verizon. You'll see the Turtle, shown here, first, and it will be sort of a Sidekick that won't run Windows Phone. Verizon will launch this like they did the Droid, aiming the might of their armies at flogging this to the feature phone user.
