...handset vendor, for example, offers at least 12 wi-fi devices, and says it's prepared to offer WiMax phones if the market wants them. Motorola started shipping its A910 wi-fi phone in Europe this month, and is providing WiMax handsets to Japanese provider Softbank for a planned trial. It's enough to make mobile-phone operators long for the days when they knew who their friends were...

With the way Iraq is going, you would think that would be the last thing the White House would want. But apparently not. On Tuesday Bush insisted the tribunal go forward, which means he'll soon have to deal with finding a way to put out Beirut's latest fires...
