Recently we debated about whether or not Apple would win the current smartphone "war". With real competition finally on the rise, how will Apple respond? What's more interesting is analyzing which companies haven't responded and putting all this data into easy to read flow charts. This is what Horace Dediu has done on his blog,...

Right from the start I was convinced that Air Mobile Mouse would not work, but after using it for a few hours, I can safely say I was wrong. Air Mouse works much like you would expect; boot it up and it takes over your Mac or PC and becomes your mouse. I own an...

If you're anything like me, you use different browsers across multiple computers and even possibly mobile devices. With this scenario, keeping your bookmarks in order becomes a real task. Sure, you can use the free Firefox, Chrome and IE bookmark sync tools but what if you use Safari on your iPhone, Firefox or Chrome at...
