AT&T has just announced their intentions to launch a whole slew of new features on November 8th. The first is an all new voicemail-to-text service which will, of course, change your voicemails into text messages making it easier for you to catch that number or name.
Second of all AT&T is planning to launch their Nation with Canada plans which will allow you customers to make calls between Canada and the US with no long distance charges.
And last but not least they will be launching 3 new channels for their Mobile TV service which we have little to no details about. Luckily, they will be dropping the base cost of the service from $15 to $9.99 and the unlimited service from $30 to $24.99.

I think we all remember the memory card movies for the PSP, a format that is sadly dead. There has been a lot of talk that DVDs and Blu-rays are on their way out, and that all digital formats will take their place.
Perhaps another step was taken today as Kingston and Paramount have teamed up to put movies on flash memory sticks. They started with Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen 4GB Kingston DataTraveler for $29.99, with no word of when others will be available. Surely there are better Paramount films to put on memory sticks then this one!

It’s no secret that the iPhone doesn’t support Flash and most likely won’t until Apple decides to lift the restriction. However, some people evidently have been thinking it was Adobe’s fault that there is no Flash on the iPhone, as you can see from the above picture.
Of course, Adobe isn’t exactly getting angry at Apple but they are telling consumers exactly what they need to know; Flash won’t be on the iPhone until Apple says it can.
