Nokia has been working to improve the tablet, and has just released updated firmware. As noted on the ThoughtFix weblog the updates are primarily focused on greater…

GrandCentral is one of those services that needed a big partner organization to take off. Well, they are now a part of Google; hopefully they don’t fall into the same void that JotSpot has disappeared into. GrandCentral is a voice routing application that many have been trying to perfect for a long time. The idea…
