Wall Street Journal Mossberg w/ Rubin Nexus one designer - video

All Things Digital Walt Mossberg interviews Andy Rubin Android's creator and designer.

They discuss a future enterprise model. With a larger plan.

The Nexus One version 2.1, the Ambassador Phone for Google's Android Platform.  The only phone that says Google, not with Google as the other dozen Android Phones.

Front end to Google services that puts Google at your finger tips.

They all address the Customer Service issues, Growth of Apps.   The Split with the Developers(%70), Google(costs) and Carrier(the rest).

So far the reception of the phone has been poor.  Complaints about no customer service, $700 early termination fees and poor first week sales(20,000) estimates.

Wall Street Journal Blackberry Bold Review

Katie Boehret, Walt Mossberg's protege at the Wall Street Journal reviews the new blackberry bold.

Katie wasn’t too shy with the review she ended of by saying “But since many of the Bold 9700’s features are about the same as less-expensive BlackBerrys, it’s worth considering the Tour and Curve 8900 before you spend $200 on a device that no longer lives up to its bold name.”
