05.27.08 | Permalink | 2 CommentsA new survey by Millward Brown, admittedly commissioned by the Bluetooth Special Interest Group themselves, has found that 85% of people are now aware of Bluetooth as a technology and an impressive 68% even recognising the Bluetooth logo itself.

Mobile Internet for Dummies
05.11.08 | Permalink | 3 CommentsIt’s a sign of things really taking off when a mainstream publisher starts taking an interest. So it’s great to see Mobile Internet For Dummies being launched.
