AT&T Shuffles Netbook Offerings
Living in the suburbs, I can totally see why users could need a mobile data plan. There are plenty of places where there is no WiFi, and folks need want to be connected. The cellphone carriers are happy to oblige, but they offer a netbook at a slightly reduced price, and then sign you up [...]

The Nokia Booklet 3G is at once a well designed piece of hardware, and oh so overpriced. In other words, many want it, but aren’t willing to pay the price of admission. Over at Nokia Mobile Blog, they spotted a Best Buy Rewards Zone ad that clues us into the pricing and the [...]
