Orlowski Does it Again
Andrew Orlowski at “The Reg” writes a perfect polemic on the state of American “innovation”. When it comes to wirelesspersonal communications technologies, North America is a backwards backwater. It sucks to look at all of the cool phones everyone is using in cities around the world, and know that I won’t be able to use the technology in North America for another two years. There wasn’t even any incentive for me to bring my GSM T68 to China — AT&T doesn’t work in China, so I would have hadto use a different carrier; and I can rent much cooler phones here for practically nothing anyway.
