The FCC boys were clutching at their multimeters in horror when they saw how much work they’d have to do when Sony’s new Xperia S rolled into the bunker. Still, their loss is connectivity’s gain, as the Ericsson-branded (for now, at least) phone packs quad-band GSM / EDGE, 850 / 900 / 1900 / 2100 UMTS and HSPA, RFID, Bluetooth 2.0 + EDR, 802.11 WiFi b/g/n and GPS.

AT&T’s chief executive says that because of the limited amount of spectrum available, the nation may soon face a data shortage. He thinks the government is the problem.

AT&T has released some real gems from its videos archives over the past year, but it’s truly outdone itself this week. It’s dug up a rarely-seen short film titled Robot that Jim Henson made for Bell in 1963, which was intended to explain computers and data communications to business owners at “elite seminars.” It does so with phrases like “Correction: the machine does not have a soul.
