Research In Motion has delayed the release of its 3G BlackBerry for AT&T from June to August, according to reports. The postponement may be due to testing of the new device. A June launch might have placed the device, the BlackBerry 9000, in direct competition for marketplace attention with Apple's 3G iPhone, which is expected to surface that month. Although rumors are swirling that RIM postponed the launch to avoid being overshadowed by the iPhone, both expected launch dates are only based on speculation, and the two phones are targeted toward different user groups.

There's a scenario that most every Apple aficionado has run into: A Web site that, when visited via Apple's Safari Web browser, just doesn't work. If it's just a handy site, failure is irritating. When it's an important site, perhaps even a critical federally managed site, a Safari failure can incite real anger, especially when the error report indicates the site is "optimized" for Microsoft Internet Explorer. Shouldn't government sites be open to all browsers? Aren't sites supposed to be built on basic Web standards?

Microsoft has just brought out the physical representation of its fifth major evolutionary change, and this one may turn out to be the most dramatic. The technology, Live Mesh, may actually both help Microsoft's customer satisfaction issues and help move Apple and Linux onto desktops everyplace. Speaking of Apple, it bought P.A. Semi, a processor technology company -- which may address a critical problem Apple has and allow the MacBook Air to eventually replace the MacBook as a more acceptably priced general-use product.

I've finally given in and purchased Apple's signature product, the iPod. Funny, I remember when Apple was a computer company. Now, it's a music company that also makes computers. If it weren't for Apple's "I'm a Mac; I'm a PC" commercials, I might not remember that Apple even makes computers. And what's up with those commercials? The PC guy is likable, but the Mac guy is a jerk. This is supposed to make me want to buy a Mac? Now, Windows Vista -- that's a good reason to buy a Mac. Now, where was I? Oh, yeah. My new iPod.

As you probably know, Microsoft released an upgraded, updated version of its venerable Office suite last January. I've been hard at work on a book about it, so for the past few months I've had the opportunity to spend quite a bit of quality time with it. Dubbed "Microsoft Office 2008 for Mac," it's still available in three versions, like its predecessor. Office 2008 for Mac Home and Student Edition replaces Office 2004's Student and Teacher Edition. It's still the least expensive edition and still offers three license codes.
