Happily Om and I were finally able to connect and he has written a short item for his blog on the Orb Networks deal with Sprint entitled "Orb Dials up Sprint." It seems that he wasn't getting my emails for some reason... He writes, in part:
"In the battle for place shifting dominance, Orb Networks gained a deep pocketed and more importantly pipe owning partner. Sprint. I have previously expressed doubts about their business model, and wondered aloud about how they would go forward when rivals are teaming up with handset makers. Orb, which has received thumbs up from Russell, is now teaming up with carriers in its effort to get more traction. "
Still some items for me to clear up in Om's view of Orb, but it looks like I'll soon have an opportunity to do so... stay tuned!
