January 20, 2011 No Comment
For years foreign nations have received better and faster cars than America but, finally, we thought we’d at least received smartphone parity. Not for Motorola , who is bringing its 4.3-inch Droid X slab to China with one major tweak: a processor running at 1.2GHz. That’s a 20 percent boost over its cycles in domestic form despite having the same TI ticker humming away in there.

Michael Lemole is a neurosurgeon who has been treating Rep. Gabrielle Giffords. However, that noble work wasn't enough to keep Palm Beach Post Page 2 Live columnist Jose Lambiet (photo) from dragging his parents through the mud for the “high crime” of supporting Tea Party candidates. Somehow Lambiet thinks it ironic that while the son has worked to save the life of Giffords, his parents are associated with a group that Lambiet absurdly claims provided “fertile ground” for the likes of Jared Loughner. Lambiet kicks off his odious column by snarking about how wealthy Lemole's parents appear to be:
