Alan Reiter, one of the smartest commentators on the world of wireless has a few strong opinions on our cover story, The Next Big Thing.
“The article is worth reading, although the writers get a bit too enthiusiastic in some areas,” he writes. The sentence which does not go down too well with him: “Within a year or so, high-end devices will begin to combine the portability of phones with the power of laptop computers.  They’ll be able to handle word-processing, voice-recognition, and photo-editing software, and they’ll come with ample storage and long-life batteries.

Well the article certainly has created a lot of buzz on the web, and at last count more than 200 comments had been posted on SlashDot
