Mobile Banking, Qualcomm & Open Handset Alliance
Much like everyone else in the industry I was shocked by this mornings news that Qualcomm had acquired Firethorn, but within a short period time I was back in my groove and my day proceeded as usual. Yet, periodically my mind kept going back to the story and I couldn't figure out why.
Then on the drive home it hit me. This is not the first time Qualcomm has been in the news recently. It was just over a week ago that Qualcomm was listed as a member of the new Open Handset Alliance spear-headed by the team at Google.
Interesting...

Very good point Brandon! Google is pushing ahead as usual and they are always tapping to the "outside world" in the best possible way: they really understood the power of web 2.0!
A mobile banking application on the Android phone is likely to be one of the added value applications people might like to find pre-installed. Any other applications? Well, we just have to wait for the result of the Android developers challenge. Bravo google!
