- Is this Barnes & Noble's secret e-book reader?
- The other big question:How big? If it's paperback size, as most of the ones now out are, then it's too small to do serious readers (science, business reports, financial tables, CAD/CAM drawings, etc.) any good. Way too much scrolling around.Not ANOTHER DEVICE?!?!? ARGGGGGG!!!This is getting stupid.Why so serious?Are you...

- Google Edu Apps vs. Microsoft Web Apps: Should I have waited?

- Rocky dreams
- Sounds reasonableRock development was so far along, I believe it was down to the fab yields for the go/no-go decision.

- No Apple tablet? Too bad, but not why you think
- A while back I wrote that an Apple Tablet, no matter how innovative or cool, would be a non-starter in education without educational content to drive adoption. Now we're hearing that it won't be introduced at Apple's September event, despite a nearly constant churn of rumors about its existence. ...
