This week’s Palm Discovery minute will be a bit more focused again on the Canadian front because of the wireless spectrum auction finally comes to an end and what it may mean to wireless connectivity in Canada.

GigaOM buys jkOnTheRun
Quite a shocker to discover that jkOnTheRun, the huge computing and gadgets blog run by Kevin C Tofel and James Kendrick has been bought out by Om Malik via his Giga Omni Media network. Guess Om Malik gave them an offer they couldn’t refuse. I hope everything stays the same under the GigaOM network since Kevin and James have a great thing going.
