Kindle: Amazon’s New Wireless Reading Device

Once more, another amazing product Canadians can only drool over.

Why is the country so far behind when it comes to wireless?  Can the monopoly be broken soon enough?

Wireless T.O.

This is neat.

Toronto Hydro Corp. will announce Tuesday that it plans to turn Canada’s largest city into one giant wireless hotspot, directly challenging the country’s major mobile phone carriers for a chunk of the $8 billion a year wireless market.

Anything to give the big boys more competition is good.

Not so easy

More proof that plugging in a car and running off a battery isn’t as simple as it looks.

It has to do with hybrid vehicles, and whether we can achieve the full benefits of “hybrid vigour” by resting on the laurels of existing technologies.

Making it a national security issue may help spur some creative ideas.  Odd that it’s occuring in the big old oil hogging US, isn’t it?  Not to me.
