designing technology that makes business sense

IRCE 2010

Posted on June 8, 2010 21:21 by wilk

I'm here at IRCE 2010 in Chicago. This show offers some promising signs for the economy. The conference is projecting a record crowd of over 6,000 attendees. That represents an increase of about 25% over last year. Granted last year was slower than normal, but ECommerce is not exactly the razor's edge for technology. 25% is a sizeable increase, and it shows retailers are at least planning to spend on technology. Stay tuned for more from McCormmick West as I bring updates from the expo. As an interesting side note, I abandoned my laptop for this trip. I am doing this whole trip and these blog entries carrying only my trusted paper journal and my new HTC EVO 4G phone. We'll see how the EVO holds up.

If you're still on the fence: grab your favorite earphones, head down to a Best Buy and ask to plug them into a evo then an iphone and see which is better to you, and which interface makes you smile more. Then you'll know which is right for you.

Checking into a closer review into the Apple iPhone 4 past the glory and assumptions, customers who bought the phone are finally seeing that their new phone is coming out to be an awesome expensive paperweight.    With dropped calls and data attempts occuring much more frequently, it is unavoidably a software flaw straight from the designer, Apple.   There was a class action lawsuit filed only 6 days after release accusing Apple and AT&T on numerous terms of negligence.

Taking a closer look into an Apple iPhone 4 past all the glory and assumptions, people are finally realizing that the iPhone 4 is coming out to be an unexpected expensive paperweight.    With dropped calls and data attempts occuring a lot more frequently, it is unavoidably turning out to be a software flaw straight from the designer, Apple.   There was a class action lawsuit filed only 6 days after launch accusing Apple and AT&T on countless terms of actions.

Steve Jobs has done a great job with releasing the new iPhone which will change the way in which we use phones now.   It's been a while in the making and it's finally time for it's unveiling!
