The Rocket Comes up for Air...

To quote that famous philisopher, Keanu Reeves: "Whoa."

It's been 5 weeks since my last posting - not like me. Please consider this a mass "sorry 'bout that" to all those who have been emailing. (Yeah, I was surprised by the emails myself. People read this? Again: Whoa.) It's been a hectic 5 weeks, too. A lot has gone on:

• Apple gets even more bratty about its iPhone.
• Sprint's board decides: nah, we'd rather not innovate, thanks anyway Gary.
• Comcast is finally getting caught with its hand in the cookie jar...
• ...and threatening its employees if they squeal like a pig.
  
• Nokia continues its steady, methodical march to end-run around US carriers by
  
• ...buying a GPS company for $8B.
• ...increasing the WiFi and image capacity of its "N" phones
  
• ...creates its own Skypish, wifi table
  

• Google continues its own march...
• ...buying Jaiku over Twitter (Jaiku, which is in Helsinki ... which is where Nokia is headquartered. Ahem.)
• ...does nothing to press release counterclaims about its own branded phone.
• ...continues its "grasp for air." (I wish I thought of that pun first, dammit)

...and, I've been busy as well...building out my new company's product line and presence, traveling to Spain (for work, I swear....well...work and Sangria), and hitting the CTIA thing again.

All in all, quite a bit of stuff - I'll be back to it in a few days.

No, really. I will.
