...volume for the same period a year earlier - but that's not music to everyone's ears. Corporate IT managers are increasingly concerned about the dangers posed by removable data storage devices, from iPods and memory sticks to digital cameras and PDAs. Things could get worse still, with Motorola's iTunes-friendly cell phone expected to launch this week. Hooked up to company machines, the devices can introduce viruses, or, more likely, be used to download confidential files. Armed with a 20-GB iPod, a disgruntled employee - or even an outgoing staff member keen to retain contacts - could...
...cusp of a movement that could be called The Invasion of the Mobile Snatchers. Ever since the beginning of commercial cell-phone services some two decades ago, mobile phones and mobile operators have gone together like railroad cars and railroad tracks. Handset vendors such as Nokia and Motorola provided about 2 billion phones to mobile operators like Vodafone, Orange and Verizon, which in turn put them in the hands of consumers who pay to transmit calls over the operators' mobile networks. Indeed, many operators subsidized the handset business, picking up the cost of the phones as a loss leader that...

...been using Bluetooth wireless headsets for about a year. Not only do I love the convenience, but I also think they make it safer to talk on the phone while driving a car. Until recently, the simplest and lightest headset I used was Motorola's HS820, but now a number of even smaller and lighter headsets are hitting the market, from Motorola, Jabra and Plantronics. The Plantronics Discovery 640 is not just a tiny, easy to use headset-it comes with a Lego lover's delight of snap-on accessories...
...Because I use a Motorola Bluetooth cell phone, I stuck to the Motorola headset. This isn't because of the invisible software that joins them together-that's based on a Bluetooth standard that guarantees that Motorola headsets and non-Motorola headsets will behave similarly when connected to a Motorola phone. No, I was afraid that I wouldn't be able to use the same plug in my car to charge both the phone and the headset (at different times, of course). Having to buy a separate Plantronics charger cable for my car might have spoiled the deal. Plantronics engineers...
