Battle of the Phone Rumors

Rumor #1 – the New York Times reports that the Palm Pre will be released the first week in June. On Sprint (sigh). I’m betting sooner so that they beat whatever Apple is planning.
Rumor @2 – Apple will release either a new, cheaper iPhone, a new, cheaper iPhone rate plan or both. The rate plan might drop to limited-access level for $20/month. That’s ten bucks less than the current plan. As the comments point out, if ten dollars a month separates you from having the iPhone you can’t afford the plan.

China shares the blame for global warming – with you!

That’s right folks. The director of China’s Department of Climate Change stated that, “this share of emission should
be taken by the consumers, not the producers”. Meaning, you buy the stuff that we make in our factories so you are partly to blame for our (China’s) emissions. More here.
