| AT&T is embracing the Google Android and
| Palm WebOS operating systems--adding a
| total of seven new handsets in 2010 built
| on the new mobile operating systems. With
| speculation that its iPhone exclusivity
| will soon end, AT&T is expanding its

2016 bug hits Windows phones
,----[ Quote ]
| The date bug which is interfering with Aussie
| point of sale transactions has spread to some
| Windows mobile phones.
|
| The glitch means that text messages received
| since New Year's Eve will appear with a 2016
| date. Card scanners in thousands of Australian
| shops have also been hit, as we reported
| yesterday. Bank of Queensland systems, believing
| it was 2016, rejected most payment cards because
| they'd passed their expiry date.
