I know a lot of you really like the new Samsung Galaxy S (or at least you think you’ll like it). Here’s a good video I found on a demo of this new android smart phone. If you’re thinking of getting one watch this video. Maybe this just is the next big phone in your future.
This is really funny. Now I’ve never done this (wink wink) but have you ever pretended to use your cell phone to not talk to someone? If you have you’re not alone. Check this out:
Honestly, how many of us have done that? To pretend to be using mobile phone to avoid an irritating, boring conversation? According to a study report published on Monday by the Pew Research Center’s Internet and American Life Project, 13 percent of cell phone owners in U.S. pretended to be busy with their phones in order to avoid interacting with the people around them.

If you want a prepaid mobile phone that doesn’t suck then watch this video. This guy shows you 5 phones that ARE prepaid but don’t look like it. I know a lot of people love the prepaid idea. They just don’t like the phone choices. Well it looks like that’s about to change for the better. Watch this video and you’ll see what I mean.
You don’t hear alot about this but one big reason why Google decided to buy the Motorola Mobile Unit may have more to do with the 17,000 Patents they have more than anything else. Patent wars have heated up recently in the mobile space. This might just be more patents in Google’s war chest now. Interesting stuff:
RBC Capital Markets said the deal value of $12.5 billion equates to 0.7 times trailing twelve months (TTM) of equity value-to-sales. In RBC Capital’s view, rising intellectual property (IP) threats to Android (and its original equipment manufacturers) from Microsoft Corp. and Apple Inc. were the major driver of the acquisition.
\”Google gets Motorola Mobility’s portfolio (17,000 patents), and while this deal may not necessarily mitigate some of the intellectual property (IP) wars under way (e.g. Apple and Motorola already suing each other), it may position Google to defend itself against more fundamental IP attacks, and increase counter-threat and leverage in global patent negotiations and litigation,\” said Mike Abramsky, an analyst at RBC Capital Markets.
Implications for Apple
Apple’s smartphone patents relate to multi-touch, object-oriented operating systems, and user interface — so this may not necessarily mitigate some of the IP Wars currently underway (Apple was suing Motorola Mobility for patent infringement — and vice-versa — already so this unlikely to change).
