Secret new iPhone
Mossblog
An occasional blog from Walt Mossberg of the Wall St. Journal.
”One of the nice things about the iPhone is that, like the iPod, it can be easily updated by Apple with new features and bug fixes. When such new software is available, you are notified the next time you plug your iPhone into your computer and the new stuff is downloaded into the phone automatically.”

Tech Web
Eric Zeman looks at the what plagues Motorola.

Owen Thomas talks about the all too human network.
“Welcome. Welcome to a brand new day.” A day, that is, without Cisco’s website. Cisco.com is down, with no word on whet it will come back up. Apparently the “human network” means the “all-too-human network.” This is beyond embarrassing for the purveyor of network infrastructure; it’s a technical snafu that verges on legendary. Cisco’s blog says “facility issues” are to blame. Anyone want to bet on a drunk employee in Cisco’s datacenter?”
