Yes, you will need at least a FTE for each device. 1 x iphone, 1 x ipad, 1 x android, 1 x android tablet. Then if you start talking about blackberry, symbian, palm, etc. you start to look at a team of around 10 just to provide mobile acces

I get your point that all founders are, or should be rounding their skills out to "wear more hats". But saying the business founder "is dead" almost doesn't warrant a comment it is so silly. So, I am a business founder with $$, an idea and

about time someone in the press admitted to these LBS' (current) uselessness. Potential for being big businesses (which is exciting for the companies) but personally useless for me at the moment.

For facebook users, yes it can replace personal communications. Businesses are more likely to totally block facebook rather than allow their important and legally binding email communications be run through an American social networking com

If you are asking people to review then ask. If not, then don't state your service as around the world if it can only do 2 countries. Disappointing after getting excited by the title and spending 5 mins to learn about pinging from USA and

The author contradicts himself. First he says that "Facebook is killing email. It’s been happening slowly, and most techies disagree, but it’s been happening for a long time." Then he goes on to admit "More importantly, Facebook isn’t seen

Maybe the title should read, business focused entrepreneurs with no money. If I am a entrepreneur and I have money, I will not be looking for a "technical co-founder". I will hire technical teams to build and iterate the product to my lik

No, quite the opposite. Apps are not going away for some time. Apps have: - carrier / store billing - devs make and collect $$ easier - more functionality, better experience with apps - easier for most users, the icon is right there on th

Agreed, no relation between the two. The poor have a chance to make it, work hard and be successful, especially in America. Most don't have it so bad either with flat screen TVs, Internet, food to eat and a roof over their heads.

Actually it is not in this case. It doesn't really matter. Isn't it generally accepted that both will be hugely successful and in the top 5 of all mobile phones sold? And who benefits anyway? Apple gets more plump AND Google + manufacture

Depends on how you look at it I suppose. If one thinks that unique human beings are more important than lab rats that are farmed to be experimented on then it is perfectly moral. Put another way, if someone in your family had 3rd degree bur

If there were four founders, did they not negotiate to set any other board members up before to outnumber the one VC board member? Sounds like they had bad legal advice. So what was the term or terms that screwed them in the end that let th

Does anyone know what % the founders held at the time of the sale? Sounds like they should have done OK, depending on what % they gave up for their $78MM VC.

Is anyone here going to develop for this thing? I should think after iphone, ipad, android, palm, regular blackberryOS devs and maybe windows phone7, devs will have their hands plenty full. Can people really take on this totally new OS?
