Facebook CEO Says iPad isn’t Mobile
At today’s Facebook event about mobile, Mark Zuckerberg answered a question about an app for Apple’s tablet with “the iPad’s not mobile,” the insinuation being that it’s a fatty that you can’t really move around with.

The Wall Street Journal posted a poll to their site today for their readers to answer, asking which mobile operating system is the best.

T-Mobile’s fleet of Sidekicks were left stranded in a data desert when Microsoft’s Danger servers crashed this weekend. Most of the data was feared lost. Luckily, some Sidekick users have had at least a portion of their Sidekick data restored. At this point, the Sidekick carrier is giving all Sidekick customers a month of free…
Poll: Does your Palm Pre randomly power off/have a loose battery?
I’ve been using the Palm Pre for a few days now, and I am apparently a victim of the random-shutoff bug that’s plagued early production units. The random power-off problem is caused by a loose battery that sometimes loses touch with the connector – usually a result of sliding the Palm Pre’s screen up or…
