The amazing thing is that in one year, Google has managed to become Microsoft and Apple both. Microsoft, because they have a big chunk of your computing experience by the balls, and every startup either plans to sell out to Google or lives in fear of Google deciding to enter their market (see also GPS makers). And Apple, because even the mainstream press is starting to pounce on Google's every new announcement as if it's made out of diamond breasts - whether it's good (the Nexus One, if it really does have T-Mob and AT&T 3G bands, intrigues me) or not (does anybody know WTF Google Wave is good for yet?) there are still breathless announcements on the Today Show.

Well, most of consumer electronics revolve around "consuming" media or generally content, and those are of course standardized across all manufacturers, so I think it's relevant.

If by some dark antenna magic it somehow worked on T-Mobile, AT&T, and Verizon, maybe that would be worth getting excited over.

there's plenty of phones with dual GSM/CDMA technology available here in India for a little over what would be approx 400USD. there are even more phones with a dual GSM technology that are able to tune into all frequencies and have both numbers activated at the same time, for about 300-400USD. it's not magic, it's probably a combo of FCC rules and carrier fear that prevents these from coming state-side.

Amen to that.
