Windows Mobile 6.1

. Tags: engadget, iphone, windows mobile.

There’s a video of Windows Mobile 6.1 over at Engadget and I can’t get over how slow the web browser is. There’s some other “cool” new features, that task manager looks “exciting”. Seriously though, watching 3 minutes of a site loading and navigation I’m surprised MS hasn’t improved anything substantial. Maybe without a touch screen they can’t produce somehting substantial but seriously, can’t MS make a web browser that loads a site like it should, it’s clearly not helping anything having it they way they have it now, nor does it speed anything up.

Wow, that is pretty slow. It must be a slimmed down version and/or a very underpowered device, because my phone (HTC Wizard) that I've had for a long time now is much faster (the whole UI). Of course, it's also had a touch screen forever too, so this phone just seems to be a bit behind the times.

One good thing though: on these devices, if you don't like the browser it comes with, you can always load others. :)

Granting Credit On The Fly. Is Bill Me Later Part Of the Problem Or Part Of
IMO: It's part of the problem.(via Granting Credit On The Fly. Is Bill Me Later Part Of the Problem Or Part Of) On the same day the public markets are tanking because of the spreading credit crisis, we see one of the biggest M&A exits of the year with eBay acquiring Bill Me Later for $945 million ($820 million in cash, plus an extra $125 million in options). The only other tech exits of this size in 2008 were Sun buying MYSQL for $1 billion (which involved less cash and more options), AOL buying Bebo for $850 million. This is for ...
Palin, A Journalism Major, Can't Name A News Source She Reads
Please make it stop. I really hope this totally discredits the Religious Right and gets them kicked out of the Republican Party. They are the ones who pushed her as VP. They deserve 100% of the blame for putting this train wreck out there.(via Palin, A Journalism Major, Can't Name A News Source She Reads) Sarah Palin said she does not support the morning after pill as a form of contraception, strongly simplied that homosexuality was a choice, and could not name a single source of news that she turns to for information, in yet another installment of her interview series ...

boxee blog » xbmc/boxee on Apple TV
I'm going to have fun with this over the weekend. I really like how its a plugin rather than overwriting the frontrow UI.(via boxee blog » xbmc/boxee on Apple TV) as we were just starting to work on boxee the first version of Apple TV came out.it looked great, the boot video was amazing, but then it lacked some basic stuff (video format limitation, ability to connect to multiple sources, streaming of photos, connectivity to other Internet services, etc.). so we stuck to our Mac Minis, which are more expensive but don’t make you live in a closed garden.when Scott Davilla ...
