I’ve been a long time user of GrandCentral and after Google bought them out, I was a bit scared on what would become of the GrandCentral service. Google has not only maintained what GrandCentral already does with free calling to the U.S.A. and Canada as well as ringing multiple phones under one phone number, but it also added voicemail transcription and now SMS to email!

Really, your guess is as good as mine, though there is an awful lot of speculation that this announcement will be somehow related to a new plan or option on a plan, not a new device.  That seems pretty reasonable to me, since the teaser mentions previous plan-based innovations…and since the Palm Pixi was already announced today.  Just what this might mean for your plan, though, will have to wait until tomorrow.  As soon as we know something, we will be sure to let you know.

ASUS Dual Screen eReader

The latest fad in electronics is e-readers.  It seems like every company wants a piece of the Kindle pie.  However, ASUS has a new spin on the reader, and I love their idea, dual touchscreens.  Their plan is to let you read a book like a book is intended to be read, or use the other screen to type or surf the web.  ASUS wants to develop more than just an e-reader.  There is also a good chance that the screens could be in color, the first e-reader in that department.  ASUS is planning for the Eee Reader to debut around the end of the year, and I am guessing they want it out for the holiday shopping season.  The pricing is also very attractive, $163 for the low end reader.  They want their reader to be the cheapest one on the market.  There is also room for a higher end model as well, with such bonuses as 3G, a web browser, and expandable storage.  I, for one, can’t wait to see it!!!  Every e-reader I have seen so far is just a version of the Kindle, and this is thinking a bit outside the box.  ASUS feel free to send one of these my way.

Pittsburgh Steelers

Attention fellow fantasy football crazies, ESPN has come to the rescue with a mobile app for the iPhone and iPod Touch.  The app provides ESPN Fantasy Football players full control and management of their teams and leagues, live scores and stats, personalized alerts and exclusive editorial content.  I think the best feature is the personalized alerts.   You will receive last minute injury news, starting line-up changes, and score updates.  One thing that I hate is that one of your star player pulls a hamstring in warm-ups, and then he doesn’t play.  Last minute news is always welcome.  All this info can be yours for $4.99
