You may have written off MeeGo handsets after Nokia all but abandoned the OS — LG hasn’t. While the company doesn’t have any “definitive plans” to release a MeeGo smartphone commercially yet, LG is willing to show off some ports of MeeGo on multiple prototypes, including tablets and smartphones, at next month’s MeeGo conference in San Francisco. With any luck, LG will use the spotlight to announce its intentions, proper like, and make a MeeGo handset running Intel silicon a retail reality in 2011 .

Sprint promises ‘many’ new 4G markets in 2010; New York, SF included
February 26th, 2010
jedwan With LTE onslaughts from Verizon and AT&T (not to mention countless carriers around the world) drawing near, Sprint’s wasting no time beefing up its WiMAX network ahead of its competitors’ 4G launches in an effort to give WiMAX the best chance it can. Without giving a hard figure, the company says that it expects to launch WiMAX service in “many” markets this year, with several notables among the lot: Boston, Denver, Kansas City, Houston, Minneapolis, New York, San Francisco and Washington, DC are all called out by name. SF and the Big Apple in particular will be huge wins — assuming the deployments go smoothly — thanks to abnormally high concentrations of geeks (including yours truly, of course) that will immediately appreciate faster wide-area broadband. They’re not listing dates just yet, so it’s unclear just how soon we can expect these to light up.

San Francisco considers displaying phone radiation levels next to price tag
December 24th, 2009
jedwan If the San Francisco Department of the Environment gets its way, starting as soon as next month Bay Area residents might start noticing the radiation levels of cellphones displayed prominently next to their respective price at retail outlets. This is, of course, despite no definitive research that the handsets cause harm and the FCC’s insistence that the devices sold to consumers are safe. The proposal is being endorsed by Mayor Gavin Newsom, who as it’s noted is not about to stop using his iPhone anytime soon. Not to worry, Maine, you’ll still keep the top spot for most ridiculous cellphone warning label .
