Dialed In 161: Barcelona bound

Forget the post-CES lull, the wireless industry is as busy as ever. This week on Dialed In we plan for Mobile World Congress and discuss the new phones from HP and Kyocera.

It's one of the craziest weeks ever in cell phone land. Not only are Kent and Bonnie packing for Mobile World Congress, but we also had two big-time press events from Sprint and HP. Sprint's new device is the dual-screen Kyocera Echo. We admit it doesn't look like much right now, but that didn't stop magician David Blaine from showing up at the unveiling. HP gave us a better show with its new Pre 3 and Veer and the company made every effort to remind us that the Palm name no longer exists.

Also in the podcast, Kent and Bonnie give their preview of everything they expect from the wireless world's biggest brouhaha coming up in Barcelona Spain. And of course, we cover our latest reviews including the Verizon iPhone and the Motorola Atrix 4G.
