Can Flash be Saved? Yes, maybe by Google. Of course, that depends on the users.

HTML5 is coming, and we&#8217;ve yet to see Flash properly supported under any Apple device; iPhone, iPod touch or even iPad. Where web standards are concerned, the next year or two is bound to be very interesting indeed.

<p style="padding-left: 30px;">HTML5 is coming, and we&#8217;ve yet to see Flash properly supported under any Apple device; iPhone, iPod touch or even iPad. Where web standards are concerned, the next year or two is bound to be very interesting indeed.</p>
<ul>
<li><a href="http://gizmodo.com/5459308/" target="_blank">The iPad vs the JooJoo vs HP&#8217;s Slate vs Android tablets etc</a></li>
</ul>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">2010 is shaping up to be the year of the tablet.</p>
<ul>
<li><a href="http://gigaom.com/2010/01/28/nokia-ovi-maps-developers/" target="_blank">Nokia might throw a bone to developers looking to hitch a ride on the Ovi Maps bandwagon</a></li>
</ul>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">Nokia&#8217;s Ovi suite of services hasn&#8217;t had a very smooth ride since their inception in mid-2009, though if the new Ovi Maps is anything to go by, they&#8217;re right on track to produce something that both developers and users will flock to.</p>

Firefox for Mobile hits the Maemo platform first

I&#8217;ve been using Firefox for as long as I can remember on the PC, and one of my biggest peeves was that it wasn&#8217;t (then) available for mobile devices, particularly those Symbian-powered phones with &#8216;Nokia&#8217; stamped all over.

<li><a href="http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/30/firefox-for-mobile-makes-maemo-its-first-home/" target="_blank">Firefox for Mobile hits the Maemo platform first</a></li>
</ul>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">I&#8217;ve been using Firefox for as long as I can remember on the PC, and one of my biggest peeves was that it wasn&#8217;t (then) available for mobile devices, particularly those Symbian-powered phones with &#8216;Nokia&#8217; stamped all over. So now Mozilla&#8217;s gone and launched Firefox for Mobile for a Nokia device, but it&#8217;s the Maemo-powered N900. Damnit, Mozilla, don&#8217;t leave me hanging here with Opera Mini.</p>
<ul>
<li><a href="http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/28/evgas-w555-motherboard-gets-a-once-over-can-hold-seven-gpus/" target="_blank">Seven GPUs on ONE motherboard</a></li>
</ul>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">Seven GPUs, two CPUs and a dozen DDR3 memory slots. I&#8217;ve been out of the PC component scene for quite a while now, but damn, things like that still get my inner geek salivating.</p>
<ul>
<li><a href="http://eu.techcrunch.com/2010/01/29/get-real-geeks-the-ipad-is-the-apple-for-mum-not-you/" target="_blank">The iPad is actually for Mom</a></li>
</ul>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">Still digesting through Apple&#8217;s recent iPad launch, but this article from TechCrunch EU does hit a couple of pertinent points, the most obvious of which is that the iPad is actually meant for the ungeek.</p>
<ul>
<li><a href="http://www.technobuffalo.com/blog/hardware/a-look-back-at-the-fading-glory-of-iomega" target="_blank">Iomega; not making Zip disks anymore, but still alive and kicking</a></li>
</ul>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">Not quite the same company they were when Zip disks were still the rage, Iomega&#8217;s one company that still manages to find a way to stay alive.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Oh wow, it&#8217;s certainly been quite some time since I posted here, since any one of us did, eh, EM? Anyhow, just to start off with, here&#8217;s a quick selection of some of the more interesting links that have popped up in my twitter feed. Here&#8217;s to more frequent posting on RG!</p>
<ul>
<li><a href="http://www.techcrunch.com/2010/01/11/android-21-sdk/" target="_blank">Google releases the Android 2.1 SDK</a></li>
</ul>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">The Nexus One is finally out, and predictably, the Android 2.1 SDK follows.</p>
<ul>
<li><a href="http://techdirt.com/articles/20100111/0744197702.shtml" target="_blank">Google to AP News: Suck it</a></li>
</ul>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">I wonder how long it takes the AP and their affiliated sites to realize that they need Google more than Google needs them?</p>
<ul>
<li><a href="http://www.brightsideofnews.com/news/2010/1/10/windows-mobile-7-definitely-delayed-to-2011.aspx" target="_blank">Windows Mobile 7 delayed to 2011</a></li>
</ul>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">After a no-show at CES 2010, seems like we won&#8217;t be seeing Windows Mobile 7 till much, much later. Wonder if the upcoming Mobile World Congress in Barcelona will be an Android-only affair.</p>
<ul>
<li><a href="http://scobleizer.com/2010/01/11/the-best-of-the-best-and-the-worst-of-the-worst-of-2010-ces/" target="_blank">The Best and worst of CES according to Robert Scoble</a></li>
</ul>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">CES was quite fun this year, and having the internet also meant that you didn&#8217;t really need to be there to see what went down on the show floors. Scoble pretty much covers all the bases here, from 3D TVs to e-readers and so on.</p>
<ul>
<li><a href="http://scobleizer.com/2010/01/11/the-best-of-the-best-and-the-worst-of-the-worst-of-2010-ces/" target="_blank">The problem with typefaces on computers versus in print</a></li>
</ul>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">It&#8217;s very interesting how something as decidedly low-tech as fonts could have so many issues when translated to supposedly cutting-edge platforms. Makes you want to rethink just how you use fonts on your machine.</p>
