It's earnings season, and straight out of AT&T's earnings call, AT&T reported 146,000 iPhone subscribers activated their phones on June 29th and 30th. Apple investors seem less than pleased, as the stock is down $3.90 right now, but putting it in context, the broader indices are down across the board.
AT&T, also competing for "most text messages in a quarter" took the crown from previously announced winner, Verizon, almost doubling their text message total. AT&T says its subscribers sent an astounding 18 billion messages, and 270 mms messages. Take that "the network!"

RIM earnings up huge, Palm loses ground

Both mobile device maker RIM and Palm reported earnings yesterday, and most people reading WirelessInfo probably realize RIM hit a sweet spot with the BlackBerry Pearl, while Palm continues to reel from a lack of innovation. It should come as no surprise that RIM reported blockbuster earnings, rising 73% this quarter gaining $1.06 per share, compared to Palm's 15 cent per share loss. And while we're no stock analysts, we don't see too much changing in the way of Palm and RIM's future. RIM is on track to ship a version of the Pearl 2, adding much more multimedia rich features to an already stellar device, while Palm is planning to release the Foleo, a "mobile companion" device we consider to be DOA.
