I just ran a company into the ground….what to do next?

I know I will run my $500,000 Ferrari into a pole shearing it in half! Stefan Ericksson from Gizmondo recently crashed the hell out of his ferrari in LA. The best part is that he claimed not be driving it when the accident happened. He “claims” that a German man named “Fritz” was the driver [...]

R.I.P. Tapwave Zodiac

Yes… it is time to say goodbye to our little PDA that almost could. The Tapwave Zodiac, a very solid product in itself, and recieved very good reviews, simply never caught on.
