The Pogies Are Announced
December 27, 2007
The New York Times' David Pogue released his list of the top 2007 techie products he likes.
One of them which I've been using is the T-Mobile Hotspot@Home service that lets me connect my Blackberry to a WiFi network and then make and receive calls for free over my T-Mobile account regardless of where I am. It has some quirks, mostly NAT/Firewall related when I'm traveling, but when I'm in a hotel and can use my own pocket size travel router, its as if I'm "home."
A second product that I was pleased to see was the Novatel USB-EVDO Memory stick. Novatel debuted that new smart offering at San Diego's GadgetFest which I co-hosted along with Ken Radio this past November for CommNexus.
Pogues recognition of that, shows once again that GadgetFest is an early indicator of what will be a hot product. The 2006 GadgetFest winner was GrandCentral with PhoneGnome winning in 2005.
