		<title>Dual Mode Phone Trends Update 4</title>
		<description><![CDATA[We are half way through the year, so it&#8217;s time for another look at Wi-Fi phone certifications. Three things jump out this time. First, a leap in the number of Wi-Fi phone models in the second quarter of 2010. Second, the arrival of 802.11n in handsets, and third Samsung&#8217;s market-leading commitment to 802.11n. According to [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[A while back the Wi-Fi Alliance announced a new certification program, Wi-Fi Direct, which enables a PC to connect directly with other Wi-Fi devices without having to go through an Access Point.
The Wi-Fi certification process for Wi-Fi Direct is scheduled to be launched by the end of 2010, but there are already two pre-standard implementations [...]]]></description>

		<title>Wi-Fi Ubiquity</title>
		<description><![CDATA[ABI came out with a press release last week saying that 770 million Wi-Fi chips will ship in 2010.  This is an amazing number. Where are they all going? Fortunately ABI included a bar-chart with this information in the press release. Here it is (click on it for a full-size view):

		<title>HD Voice, Peering and ENUM</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The most convenient route between telephone service providers is through the PSTN, since you can&#8217;t offer phone service without connecting to it. Because of this convenience telephone service providers tend to consider PSTN connectivity adequate, and don&#8217;t take the additional step of delivering IP connectivity. This is unfortunate because it inhibits the spread of high [...]]]></description>

		<title>The iPhone as an eReader</title>
		<description><![CDATA[On a recent extended trip to England, I discovered Stanza, an e-reader application for the iPhone. Not only did it demonstrate for me that the iPad will obsolete the Kindle, but that the iPhone can do a pretty good job of it already.
Surprisingly, the iPhone surpasses a threshold of usability that makes it more of [...]]]></description>

		<title>Test your broadband connection at the FCC</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The FCC has launched a broadband speed and quality test presumably to gather information about the real state of broadband in the US. This is a great initiative and I encourage you to go and run the test.
I tried it myself, and it wouldn&#8217;t let me take the test because I put in an English [...]]]></description>

		<title>Google pushes fiber</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Google announced that it is going to wire a select few communities with gigabit broadband connections. This could be huge.
Something is wrong with broadband access in the US. It was ranked 15th in the world in 2008 on a composite score of household penetration, speed and price. 
Google is setting out to demonstrate a better [...]]]></description>

		<title>VoIP over the 3G data channel comes to the iPhone</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I discussed last September how AT&#038;T was considering opening up the 3G data channel to third party voice applications like Skype. According to Rethink Wireless, Steve Jobs mentioned in passing at this week&#8217;s iPad extravaganza that it is now a done deal.
Rethink mentions iCall and Skype as beneficiaries. Another notable one is Fring. Google Voice [...]]]></description>

		<title>Apple iPad has proprietary processor</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Well, the Apple iPad is out. Time will tell whether its success will equal that of the iPhone, the Apple TV or the MacBook Air. I&#8217;m confident it will do better than the Newton. The announcement contained a few interesting points, the most significant of which is that it uses a new Apple proprietary processor, [...]]]></description>
