Nortel Networks says it expects the rapid growth of wireless service in India and China to help offset the stagnant wireless markets in North America and Europe. Wireless equipment sales make up 40 percent of Nortel's revenues. Of the two markets, India holds the most potential for network firms like Nortel. India has more than 16.3 million mobile phone users, but analysts expect the number to surge to at least 100 million by 2008, or about 10 percent of its current population. China is already a much more developed market with roughly 240 million mobile phone users (about one-fifth of its population).

Hitachi's 4GB Microdrive. Hitachi is pumping up its Microdrives, those tiny hard drives that fit into a CompactFlash Type II card slot, to 4 gigabytes. And it looks like these'll actually give CompactFlash some real competition, with a 4GB Microdrive set to retail for about $499, or less than one-third what a 4GB CompactFlash memory card goes for.

Chris Brumme's blog. Microsoft senior developer Chris Brumme doesn't post often to his weblog, but every one of his essays is a lengthy, authoritative, and candidly self-critical exploration of .NET and CLR arcana, the sort of thing you might expect to read on MSDN (minus the self-criticism, that is). And in fact, the absence of this material from MSDN is controversial. Back in June, Dare Obasanjo complained about that. Robert Scoble's response was: ... [Jon's Radio]
