  • Sprint & Verizon to ride the patent gravy train

    Sprint Nextel and Verizon Communications both see an opportunity to make a buck on their IP telephony patents after successfully suing Vonage Holdings last year.

    Since Sprint and Verizon have already successfully asserted these patents, it certainly strengthens their new cases. And it’s very likely the companies will either win in court or be able to pressure these companies and any other VoIP providers into licensing deals.

    Those patents, part of a larger portfolio of

  • The FCC on Comcast Confusion in spades

    Let me see if I’ve got this right. Federal regulators determined on Friday that Comcast broke the law by slowing Internet traffic for subscribers using BitTorrent to swap large files with other people. But then the FCC decided it was enough to issue a press release declaring the victory of the rule of law and now it’s time to move on.

    We do not tell providers how to manage their networks. They might choose, for instance, to prioritize voice-over-IP calls. In analyzing whether Comcast

    But doing willful damage to the passport is a crime, one attendee pointed out. “I fell, really hard,” RenderMan deadpanned.

    Security expert RenderMan discusses the insecurity of RFID chips, Bluetooth headsets and laptops using Wi-Fi at the Last HOPE hacker conference.

    The U.S. government attempted to mitigate the privacy threat by putting a metal foil layer on the front and back cover of the passports, but the stiffness of the foil pops the passport open as much as an i

  • Has EA extended its deadline on Take-Two merger to

    And it’s true that in takeover situations like this one, it’s not at all uncommon for things to drag on and on and for deadlines to pass and then pass again. Look at Oracle and PeopleSoft. Or, obviously, Microsoft and Yahoo.

    On June 10, Geek Gestalt hits the highways for Road Trip 2008. I’ll start in Orlando, Fla., and visit many of the South’s most interesting destinations. Stay tuned, and be sure to keep up, both now and during the trip, with what I’m doing on Twitter.

  • SXSWi party lines best evidence of event’s massive

    The line outside the massive 16bit party in Austin, Texas, on Saturday night demonstrated how much bigger SXSWi is than it was last year.

    The same was true last year.

    For my part, I refused to wait all that long to get into 16bit, and though I thoroughly enjoyed running into a number of friends in the line, several of us decided to blow it off and go back to our hotel where we could get drinks–albeit ones we’d have to pay for–without waiting.

    AOL Radio Stream radio from over 200 stations spanning 25 music genres. It can even round up local stations. Who needs an FM tuner now?

  • Favorit fixes some of Google Reader’s shortcomings

    It’s no secret we’re Google Reader users here at Webware. We’ve got a Newbie’s Guide for it, and wholly recommend it to folks who want a simple feed-reading experience. That said the product is not without its faults. Earlier today we got a pitch from a cool new service called Favorit that’s definitely gunning to take some market share away from Google and other Web based RSS readers. The good news is that it’s got a lot of things going for it that others do not.

  • Video site Revver shopping itself for a song

    Revver’s asking price is between $300,000 and $500,000, as well as the assumption of the company’s debt, which is in the $1 million range, said two sources with knowledge of the negotiations. The sum is tiny considering that the Los Angeles-based Revver raised $12.7 million in venture funding.

    The deal never materialized. A source with knowledge of the negotiations said talks stalled when Greenspan began “trying to drive down the price” and “that Revver’s debt was an issue.”

    Drop in an RSS feed, and enjoy a potentially endless stream of SMS messages depending on how active the feed is.

    There are a handful of other services that do this including Yahoo’s Alerts, ZapTXT, RSSFWD, and Web-Alerts.com. It’s also worth noting that Pingie is U.S.-only, and Sprint and Nextel customers may have trouble getting messages from Pingie delivered, although according to the devblog, a fix is in the works.
