Sorry to everyone, I’ve been so busy at work that I’ve not had time to post much. Actually, I’ve not really been able to write about much, and I don’t know why.
Most of the last two weeks when I’ve sat down and started a post, I change my mind about a line or two in – its been frustrating. There is so much work on my plate during the day, that I simply haven’t found the interest to poke around all my favorite blogs and sites on the ‘net.
It sure is frustrating, it must be “bloggers block” that many bloggers have talked about.
My problem at the moment seems to follow the pattern that everyone goes through, either work or life or something takes up more time and since we all need some “down time”, blogging is something that seems to get set aside for awhile. It’s not like I don’t have anything to say, but I just am having trouble finding the right words.
Another thing that’s not helping right now is that I feel uninspired, I think because of my workload. Well, that’s enough for now, its my daughter’s birthday this weekend, and we’ve got a lot of things to do. Though I will be trying to get back to some writing – I do have a list of posts/articles/reviews, that I would like to eventually get to, so I do have some hope.
Later.

Looks like Cingular will be getting three more Windows Mobile devices this year. The Boy Genius has the post over at Engadget Mobile on the trio of devices: HTC Hermes, HTC StarTrek, and HP iPaq hw6920.
While I’ve posted about the hw6900 series before, the Hermes and StarTrek devices are going to be more interesting. With HSDPA on the Hermes for 400-700kbs data rates, it’ll be quite speedy. The wonderful design of the StarTrek flip phone will appeal to the average and high-end cell phone user.
Can’t wait to see more of these devices spread to other carriers as well – or in the case of the HTC devices, simply look around for the iMate and HTC versions that can work with any GSM carrier. Damn, I love technology. 🙂

Ed Hardy over at Brighthand.com is reporting that Intel is planning to sell it’s XScale line of processors. The XScale line has long been used in mobile devices, from Pocket PCs & Smartphones, to Palm and BlackBerry devices.
Marvell Technology Group, Ltd. is the company that will be purchasing the devision, along with about 1,400 employees that will make the transition to the new company.
The immediate impact on the XScale line & its direction is unknown, but it is my opinion that Intel just wasn’t focusing a lot of attention on expanding the capabilities of the line of processors. Maybe Marvell will be able to take the chip to another level of integration and features that could leverage more functionality for all of us in the end.
