Department of Homeland Security issues grants for public safety agencies to develop interoperable communication systems. Will enable agencies to acquire radio systems that let police talk to fire talk to emergency medical services. Current systems generally enable communications only within a specific agency, and not between agencies. Note the date of the press release, at top, and the date in the last paragraph. Weird.

Nokia Leaps into the Future.

Nokia Stuns Everyone

"Well, much to our surprise and delight, that Nokia phone we reported on yesterday turned out to be real. But it's not called the 7800, it's the 7600. And further stunning everyone, Nokia's also coming out with about a million other new products today. Besides the 7600 Imaging Phone (which is a WCDMA/GSM phone with a 65,000 color display, Bluetooth, and a built-in digital camera), Nokia also unveiled a new line of "Imagewear" products for displaying and viewing digital photos, including two medallions with tiny LCD screens, two digital picture frames, and a digital photo kaleidoscope.

Some very cool stuff here that, unfortunately, I don't have time to delve into deeply tonight. Alan Reiter handles some of it for me, though.

BBC.  New innovations in treating Parkinson's disease.  Again, this is the type of innovation that Bush's ill conceived policies are slowing/halting.   Time for a change. [John Robb's Weblog]
