GearTech Update

• Apple reports earnings and sells more than ATT reported, though it’s unclear of the 270,000 iPhones and accessories are phones. The stock closed up
• iPhone… vs Blackberry and Compromises in choosing an All in One Device.
• Plaxo evolving. If you use it, feel free to add me.
• Second Life — less than ideal for true marketing value. Testing only with minimal returns. It’s all about the (now limited) PR.
• Why did Nokia acquire Twango? - seems like the wrong direction. Walled Garden vs open community participation.
