The annual Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in Las Vegas was last week. In past years, just the anticipation of the world's largest electronics trade show was enough move technology stocks higher.

That was not the case this year, though, as investors grapple with a weak economy, frozen credit, plunging home values and rising unemployment. Just paying the bills and keeping one's head above water seems to be the order of the day. The market sold off hard last week, and not even the CES could pull it out of its funk. Still, there were some bright spots.

Palm, Inc. (NASDAQ: PALM) gave its investors a taste of the old days as its shares soared 34% after its new touch-screen phone and mobile operating system garnered admiration from analysts and attendees at the CES.

If your'e a T-Mobile customer, you can bet on two things in the coming months. One: you'll no longer be subjected to the nagging question, just how much of my monthly bill is going to pay Catherine Zeta-Jones' retainer? [She'll be absent in the company's advertising after her contract expires next year.] Two: you'll soon be able to view BloggingStocks on many T-Mobile phones.

According to the Wall Street Journal, T-Mobile (a unit of Deutsche Telekom AG (ADR) (NYSE:DT)) is soon to roll out a line of phones that can roam onto wireless connections either in consumers' homes or in T-Mobile hotspots, such as Starbucks Corporation (NASDAQ:SBUX) coffeeshops.

Just in time, as it turns out: now BloggingStocks is wireless-ready. It's now set to auto-detect that you're browsing from a mobile phone, including

• Pocket IE (Smartphone and Pocket PC)
• Blazer (Palm OS)
• BlackBerry handsets
• Current wireless handsets with WAP-enabled browsers (almost all current phones)

and, naturally, the new T-Mobile units. Because you finance whizzes, you need to be checking out the latest snark on BloggingStocks when you're hanging at the 'Bucks.
