    Week in Review: July 29 - August 4Posted By: Ed on Sunday, August 05, 2001 11:36:51 AM
The big noise last week was all about new wireless hardware. Sprint PCS is going to release a Springboard that is both a wireless phone and modem while Motient is close to releasing a wireless modem and ISP for the Vx that it hopes will compete with OmniSky. The trickle of Bluetooth devices continues with the Red-M Blade for the Vx. And finally, a cordless phone Springboard is available. In other top news, Sony cut prices for its Memory Sticks and we presented a review of the latest version of WordSmith. Top subjects for conversation in the Forums this week included incorrect perceptions of Palm, and the Atom Smash 2.0 beta. Finally, the new Market Place got a strong start with over fifty items listed for sale, some at amazingly low prices.

In a word, no. Until I got laid off a few months ago, I've always had a real job in addition to Palm Infocenter. While we make a small amount of money from advertising, unless we do something crazy like charge for access, it will be a long time before this site can afford to support its staff in even lower middle class style. In the mean time, there shouldn't be any change when I return to the wonderful world of full employment.

 Link to Market Place on main page?
I looked for a link to the Market Place on the main page. I didn't see one. If you had one, it would result in higher traffic to that area IMHO.
Just a thought.
