This week in tech saw a lot of open jaws and head shaking from observers like me. This week, I’ll point out the top four moves that makes me suspect drugs may have played a role in their decision to move them to the light of day. Here in tech, things move pretty fast; if you don’t stop and point out the crack heads, you could miss them.
This week:

- AT&T really hates iPhone users?
- Wireless power is here, do you want it?

Microsoft sings better tune on Windows Mobile
Microsoft Mobile Communications Business SVP Andy Lees has said that future versions of Windows Mobile will improve the music “experience.” In his statement, he acknowledged the successful strategy that Apple has followed with the iPhone: by tying the iPhone into the wildly successful iTunes + iPod ecosystem, Apple has managed to successfully enter a market where they have absolutely no proven competence. The other big closed-source player, Research in Motion, has also made moves to bring music and cell phones together. They recently announced a music service much like iTunes in partnership with a Canadian music company called Puretracks.
