Ogo Vs. Blackberry

Ogo Vs. Blackberry 09/15/2004 03:20 PM

So the AT&T Wireless Ogo isn't coming out today - I think we can chalk that up to an overanxious rep - but it should be out soonish, from what I can gather. In the meantime, check out this comparison shot. It's a little bigger than I was hoping, but if it really just costs $100 I'm not going to complain about a little extra size. Besides, that might make the keyboard more useful.

And if AT&T lets people install their own software on it, it's got an even better chance to give Danger a run for the Sidekick money. I have my fingers crossed, which made typing this really hard.

BlackBerry Thumb

BlackBerry Thumb 02/01/2005 09:09 PM

For now, you can file the 'Blackberry Thumb' issue along side the folder where you would have kept your worries about cellphone radiation, had you not forgotten them since that tumor pressed too firmly into your hippocampus. Sure, dinking around on thumbboards probably isn't exactly the optimal use of your opposable digits, but it's likely no worse than the dreaded "Nintendo Thumb" that struck down a whole generation of good typists, who now are cursed with occasional involuntary run-ons of 'ABABSELECTSTART.' Until this doctor in the UK can actually point to a documented case of someone suffering from tendentious, I think I'll keep promoting the thumbboard as one of the best mobile input devices we have ABABSELECTSTART available. (Thanks, Aaron!)

Amdist all the hoopla around Motorola' new products, one news which got little mention was the deal struck between Moto and Blackberry for MPx. By now, Blackberry has signed-up most major phone makers, and has worked out plans to embed its software/service on all sorts of SmartPhone OS platforms. We are looking at a defactor wireless email platform? Perhaps!

But this clearly is not good news for well, Good Technology! Motorola's MPx was supposedly going to be an exclusive Good deal, but I guess not. And those smart VCs who have pumped in nearly $250 million into wireless email must be reaching for their large box of Tums! Good alone accounts for $146 million of the total.

My theory on this is, that by launching an aggresive marketing/hype campaign, Good galvanized those meek canadians into action. Had that not happened, RIM probably would have kept doing what they were doing - selling devices and service and growing at a nice Canadian pace. Threatened, they went on and signed up all these people. Voila! They are in good place, Good in not!

• A Microcosm of VC Madness: $250M for Wireless E-Mail
• Return of Hype
• What's So Good?

[gigaom]

I totally agree with Om.

This is an example where patents and VCs have really FUDed the landscape and all of a sudden a sleeping Tiger has been clued in and appears to grok it now.

I just hate the concept of the mini-keyboard being patented - but let's just get on with making sure it's baked into all sorts of devices - as my chubby fingers will NEVER learn to thumb type, graffitti or whatever.

I'm a QWERTY keyboard guy - till I die - I got no choice about it. And there's no way in hell I'm typing SMS messages with a phone pad....

Anyway - congrats to Blackberry - not let's get on with it.

The Life Of A Blackberry Widow

The Life Of A Blackberry Widow 05/03/2004 05:18 AM
I could have sworn I saw similar articles years ago, but maybe it's just a sign of how long RIM has been wrecking marriages with their BlackBerry device that it's never too late to publish the story of a "BlackBerry widow" who laments the entrance of the wireless device that seems to get much more attention from her husband than she ever does. There's just something about anywhere, any time connectivity that makes people feel the need to constantly check the device and to respond immediately. There's some element of "well, because I can" and some element of wanting to appear always on the job to avoid losing the job. Still, next thing you know marriage counselors will start adding "Blackberry addiction" to their list of problems along with the ever popular "internet addiction."
