Update: Nokia has apparently changed its mind and says it will allow users to transfer their games to their new devices. That’s nice of them, well done Nokia.
I do have to take issue with their statement, though
We have noticed a number of media stories about N-Gage game transfers and wanted to clarify the [...]
The day I arrived in San Francisco for CTIA a few weeks back, the “big” news was that AT&T had finally launched an OTA music download service with Napster Mobile. It’s pretty much like every other OTA operator music store that’s been around for a while, which is to say it’s got a limited selection [...]
One of my fellow speakers at the Barcelona chapter of Mobile Monday was Ricardo Baeza-Yates Director of Yahoo! Research Barcelona. Ricardo had to leave early, so we didn’t have much of a chance for a chat, but there were some very interesting aspects of his presentation.
I think it’s fair to say that Ricardo sees mobile as [...]
Prosecutors in LA have indicted Stefan Eriksson on felony counts of embezzlement, grand theft and possession of a gun by a felon, along with two misdemeanor counts of possession of a gun by a felon. His bail has been set at $5 million, and the INS still has an immigration hold on him. If convicted [...]
In all the fuss over Stefan Eriksson, several people noticed last month a new MVNO, Xero Mobile, and its ties to Gizmondo. Xero wants to target college students, and plans to give them free service in exchange for listening to ads — and its CEO, Peter Lilley, was head of Gizmondo’s Smart Adds business, which [...]
Thanks to Brian for sending in the latest update to the ever-bizarre Stefan Eriksson story: that he was arrested Saturday night on suspicion of grand theft, and is being held without bail.

Stefan Eriksson just can’t catch a break. The beleaguered Ex-Gizmondo boss has run into another spot of bother, as Beverly Hills police Sunday confiscated his Mercedes SLR. Officers pulled the car, driven by Eriksson’s wife, over Sunday after its European license plates caught their eye. They then found that Eriksson’s wife didn’t have a drivers’ [...]
Sorry, I fell asleep on the job on this one — on March 16, the LA Times reported the crash of former Gizmondo boss Stefan Eriksson’s million-dollar Ferrari Enzo may have been videotaped — from inside the car.
Here’s what authorities know now: the mysterious “Dietrich”, who Eriksson said was driving the car and fled [...]
It’s been about a week, so it’s time for more twists in the story of former Gizmondo CEO Stefan Eriksson. Eriksson, you’ll remember, was involved in the 160+ mph crash of a million-dollar Ferrari Enzo, which may or may not have really been his, and which he may or may not have been driving. The [...]
True to form, more details are emerging on the spectacular Ferrari crash last week involving former Gizmondo CEO Stefan Eriksson. Police now say the Ferrari was traveling in excess of 160 miles and hour when it crashed, but they’ve also released several more juicy details that — of course — don’t paint the best picture [...]
