A look at a device we don’t have here in the States, just yet! Pretty Box, don’t ya think?
Happy Birthday Jenneth!
Please join me in wishing a very Happy Birthday to the lovely, beautiful, vivacious and talented Jenneth Orantia! I’ll tell you a little story about my friendship with her… I’ve enjoyed reading Jenneth’s various blogs over the years, and I finally got the opportunity to meet her in the flesh at the 2006 Thailand Mobius [...]
An Afternoon With Ford
Tuesday I was in Dearborn, Michigan, with about 200 other journalists attending an event held in and marking the reopening of the renovated historic Ford Dearborn Glass Plant. Before I get into the particulars of our day, I want to mention that the Dearborn Glass Plant was designed by Albert Kahn and built in 1922. [...]

The Alltel Motorola MOTOROKR Z6m Mobile Phone Review
With all the smart-phones that we cover here on Gear Diary, it can be easy to overlook a huge segment of the mobile market…the dumb-phone.
