Mossberg on Wireless Audio

Mossberg on Wireless Audio 01/16/2004 11:01 AM
The Wall Street Journal's Walt Mossberg reviews the Creative Technology Sound Blaster Wireless music system: Mossberg is very up on the device, which avoids some of the weaknesses of similar Wi-Fi-to-audio adapters by having its display built right into the remote control. (Mossberg complains about having to enter a hexadecimal encryption key into the Sound Blaster software to attach it to his protected network. He speaks for all home users when he writes, No normal consumer knows what "Hex" is, and companies should stop expecting them to use it. On the other hand, when he says that the key is rendered in an arcane and obscure kind of techie code called "Hexadecimal" he's just being crotchety. Hexadecimal is just base 16: 0 to 9 and the letters A to F. Fortunately, WPA will replace the hex-interfaced WEP system eventually.) I saw a similar device, Slim Devices's Squeezebox, at Macworld Expo last week. The Squeezebox has wired and wireless interfaces, a nice remote control, and a two-line bright LED display. It plays MP3, Ogg Vorbis, and WMA (among other formats) with the jukebox running on a Linux, Windows, or Mac system....

Walt Mossberg: Gadget kingmaker

Walt Mossberg: Gadget kingmaker 05/04/2004 05:14 AM
Great Wired Mag profile of the Wall Street Journal's Walt Mossberg, the granddaddy of gadget reviewers, who can snap your company's neck like a twig with one twitch of his mighty keyboard.

...when it debuted on October 17, 1991, "Personal Technology" was an immediate hit. Mossberg's voice, amplified by the power of the Journal, resonated like no other. In 1992, he recommended America Online, an also-ran with only 200,000 subscribers, over Prodigy, the leader with 1.8 million subscribers and powerful backers, including Sears and IBM. "Prodigy tried to get me fired," he recalls. Mossberg's endorsement "really helped put AOL on the map," admits founder Steve Case. "It turbocharged our growth."

Mossberg's proudest moment came in 2001, when he objected to Smart Tags, a feature he tested in a beta version of Windows XP. Smart Tags could turn any word on a Web page into a link to a Microsoft property or sponsor's site without consent from the site's author.

Walt Mossberg, columnist for The Wall Street Journal, has written an article today largely praising Apple's new iPod Mini...

Walt Mossberg like the iPod Mini

Walt Mossberg like the iPod Mini 02/11/2004 12:07 PM
Walt Mossbertg, the technology columnist at a little paper called the Wall Street Journal reviews the new iPo mini, and over all he likes it. Of course, he would like it a lot more if it were $50 cheaper, a common complaint and one I am sure Apple will address as for price of those cute Mini harddrives goes down. Of particular note is this little tidbit:

In fact, the latest version of iTunes even senses if you have a Mini, and if your song collection exceeds its capacity, the software can optionally auto-choose a selection of songs that will fit. It builds this selection, in part, based on which songs you've played most often or most recently, and which you've rated highest in iTunes.

This is the first I have heard of this feature, and I must say it is pretty cool.

Mossberg: Clones give iPod 'a run for
its money' 10/29/2003 10:20 AM
After two years of market dominance, Apple's iPod is finally getting "a run for its money," according to Wall Street Journal columnist Wall Mossberg. Mossberg's latest Personal Tech column, entitled Attack of the iPod Clones, discusses the burgeoning threat of Apple's MP3 player market competitors. Though mainly of interest to Windows users -- as two of the devices Mossberg mentions are, for now, for Windows only -- it's worth comparing how Apple's own offering shores up against some big names in the high-capacity MP3 player space.

Mossberg Kvells Over Verizon Wireless's
1xEvDO 04/09/2004 03:57 PM
The Wall Street Journal's personal tech guru Walt Mossberg loves Verizon Wireless BroadbandAccess 1xEv-DO service: He had no problem configuring and using it, and thinks the price is high--$50 a month instead of $80 a month seems like a better rate. He's concerned about the tragedy of the commons--or common carrier in this case--but offers tentative acceptance of Verizon Wireless's claim that they can maintain a minimum data rate in the face of broad adoption. Mossberg tested AT&T Wireless's EDGE and achieved 82 Kbps, a speed above what seems to be typical of most of the users we've heard from or read about. But he hit 500 to 700 Kbps in his D.C. area with Ev-Do. Mossberg mentions the only real downside: 40 to 60 Kbps upload speeds, which we started discussing in this space a few days ago. The asymmetric upstream/downstream speed may be a function of the technology, but with the extent that cell companies are trying to turn consumers into producers with Web cameraphones, streaming video uploads, and other bandwidth-sucking tools, 40 to 60 Kbps won't cut it for long....

Mossberg: Sony's new Walkman is no iPod

The Wall Street Journal's technology columnist, Walter Mossberg, t akes a look at Sony's new 20GB Network Walkman NW-HD1, the first Walkman portable music device to feature a hard drive (subscription required to read the article). Already dubbed an "iPod killer" by some industry wags, the Walkman fails to impress Mossberg on several points, including "confusing" user interface, "tedious" song-loading process that took more than two hours to transfer 416 songs, and less robust companion music download service that also sports more restrictive rules than the iTunes Music store. "The iPod wins this round, and remains champion," said Mossberg.

AirPort Express 'falls short' for WSJ's
Mossberg 07/22/2004 03:04 PM
Wall Street Journal columnist Walt Mossberg turned his attention this week to Apple's new AirPort Express, a wireless networking hub that streams music to your home entertainment system. Mossberg concluded that the US$129 device does what Apple says it should, but still falls short of the ideal, since it has no remote control. Mossberg lauds the size and easy portability of the device, as well as the setup assistant software included with it, but is disappointed with one "fundamental" problem.

In Open Source Person, Tim says: I thought it might be entertaining to give a blow-by-blow account of my job hunt here, naming names, trading off pluses and minuses, telling all. Then it dawned on me how incredibly clueless and lame-brained that would be. Amusingly, I've been down that road too. I'd love to be able to blog the job contacts, interviews, and offers I've had in the last year or two, but it probably is a bad idea even...

MP3 interviews with Philip K Dick

MP3 interviews with Philip K Dick 06/07/2004 04:17 AM
David sez, "A friend loaned me a bunch of tapes, and one of them turned out to be an audio interview of Philip K. Dick, interviewed in his home. You can hear the television on and his kids playing in the background. Very relaxed and chatty. I transfered it to mp3s. Everything you hear is exactly what was on the tape. I don't have a lot of server space, so I'll have to post the mp3s a batch at a time. I wouldn't mind if someone wants to provide greater hosting capabilities." Here's David's email if you have some spare hosting capacity you'd like to pass along.

01 -- If God exists then he's a fake, or more likely a foot!
02 -- On RAH.
03 -- Christopher.
04 -- self-sacrifice, the person sacrifices himself for another person.
05 -- On Mussolini.
