Epic Smart Phone Platform Wars
Monday, March 29th, 2004All Things New York Day at Borders Columbus Circle
Friday, March 26th, 2004
 I’ll be doing some Wi-Fi show and tell at the All Things New York Day celebration at the Columbus Circle Borders Store. Looks like I’ll be hanging around with a Mac, a PC, a Zaurus, and a Pocket PC around 5pm. For me, the big event is the rollout of the free pocket guide that I wrote with Rob. |

Udell: “Could InfoPath have been built on a Mozilla foundation
instead? You bet. And the result wouldn’t just be a great Windows
application. It would be a great application, period.” See also The
Firefox Opportunity.

Exodus Cafe, Atlanta
Tuesday, March 23rd, 2004
 I checked out Exodus Cafe last night; it’s a Jamaican restaurant on 109 Luckie Street (right near the corner of Luckie and Cone). Great stuff. I tried the sampler (oxtail, jerk chicken, and curry chicken). If you’re in Atlanta for CTIA (or in Atlanta for whatever reason), check it out. |

Settled in in Atlanta
Saturday, March 20th, 2004I just arrived in Atlanta for CTIA Wireless 2004. It
should be fun. I’ve added some pictures to my textamerica moblog. I was
hoping that I’d find a nice 1xEV-DO signal here (c’mon, Verizon,
surprise me with a cloud of 1xEV-DO this week!), but my AirPrime 5220
is connecting in only 1xRTT mode. The signal is much better here than in
other places I’ve tested, but I wouldn’t mind a taste of that BroadbandAccess.
