NEWS  THIS WEEK'S TOP STORIES

How Palm Became an Also-Ran

The maker of the Treo smartphone has been hurt by outdated software and strong rivals

Inside: This Week in Technology
Hi Tech Watchers,

The big question this week was all about wireless. Will Google build a gPhone? What's going wrong with Palm? Why is Alcatel-Lucent struggling? And how many times can AT&T re-brand? We've got answers in this week's best tech stories. Arik Hesseldahl's piece, "Mapping a Wireless Trend" talks about where the next big trend on cell phones is coming from: GPS companies. And Olga Kharif's explains that the real question isn't whether or not Google plans on building a phone to rival Apple's iPhone. It's who is making the components for it.
