- Is RIM Prepping Video Download Service?
By Eric Zeman
According to informed sources, Research In Motion is set to announced a new, full-episode television download service for its BlackBerry devices. Is RIM ramping up efforts to compete on the mobile content front?
http://links.techwebnewsletters.com/ctt?kn=47&m=32201679&r=MTM4NTY5MzE2NgS2&b=2&j=NDY4OTc2MjQS1&mt=1&rt=0

- Taking T-Mobile's First 3G Laptop Modem For A Spin
By Eric Zeman
Years after T-Mobile's competitors took the lead, T-Mobile has finally launched a USB wireless broadband modem for laptops. The ungainly-named T-Mobile webConnect USB Laptop Stick lets laptop users access T-Mobile's 3G network for wireless Internet. It works just fine, but T-Mobile blew a big opportunity here.

- Microsoft To Charge Developers To Correct Typos?
By Ed Hansberry
Earlier this month Microsoft released information on how its application store for Windows Mobile would work for developers. There is an annual $99 fee to keep your app in the store, and that includes five new apps per year. After that, it is $99 per app. It seems though that any update to an app will cost the developer $99 as well, or will count against the five in the initial payment. Some are taking this to mean that if a developer corrects a typo and releases a .01 update, it would be $99.

- The Android Market Is One-Tenth The Size Of The iPhone Apps Store
By Eric Zeman
T-Mobile recently shared some statistics from the Android Market. Right now, there are about 2,300 applications available, which is under one-tenth the size of the iPhone Apps Store's whopping 25,000+.

- Most People Use Mobile Phone For More Than Calls
By Ed Hansberry
Accenture has released a survey that shows 41% of users use their phones just for phone calls. If my trusty HP-12c calculator is correct, that means 59% of mobile phone owners use it for more than just phone calls.

- Blog Reviews The Unreleased BlackBerry Niagara In Detail
By Eric Zeman
I don't know how The Boy Genius got his hands on it, but he did. He's posted the first part in a two-part review of the forthcoming BlackBerry 9630 Niagara. Think of it as an 8900, Bold and Storm merged into one ultra device that has the best of all things BlackBerry. Verdict? It's going to be a smash hit.

- Mobile Internet On Phones Becomes More Routine
By Ed Hansberry
Between January 2008 and January 2009, the number of people accessing the internet daily from a mobile device increased from 10.8 million to 22.4 million people according to a comScore report. The report studied the habits of 63.2 million people that accessed the internet to some degree with their phone for news and information.

- Please Take Our DLP Survey
Are new data loss prevention (DLP) systems the best way to protect sensitive
information? Vendors would like us to think so, but is it possible that

own, will do the job just as well? Please help InformationWeek Analytics
discover whether DLP is the next must-have infosec tool, or a useful yet pricey
tech required by only a subset of organizations.
