Speedlink 12/13/06!

Mobifusion is revving up to release the mobile version of the Iraq Study Group Report. Just in time for the holidays!

SafeNet launches DRM Fusion Toolkit4TV, "the first product available for mobile TV licensing and protection that supports all major, open broadcast Digital Rights Management (DRM) standards."

Mariah Carey's "All I Want For Christmas" is the best-selling holiday ringtone ever, at least according to the RIAA's auditors, who know everything about ringtone sales. Oh, hell, who am I kidding? You already know whether or not you want it.

Kotaku has some snark for execs who overhype the mobile platform in relation to console. I'm with K. on this one; hype like this makes it harder to take the rest of us seriously.

Missed it earlier: Napster Mobile launches in Europe, with two or possibly three million available tracks.

Snowed In 5 is free for the holidays! If you haven't heard of this before now... well, then we have something in common. Despite its Google hits, I suspect that Clickgamer has not made as big a splash in the popular culture as its self-appointed title, "leading D2C mobile games portal," implies, but anyone who can stand to give a fifth-generation game away in the holiday season has got to be doing something right.

Ester Goldberg, "International Glamour Puss of All Media," self-proclaimed "Yenta of All Media" (and, ahem, not a real lady), teams with Zannel in a mobile-content deal somewhat reminiscent of Howard Stern's deal with SIRIUS. How far can this joke go? We'll never find out until we push it ONE STEP FARTHER!

Finally, you would think that SWAT Force, winner of the 2006 Spike TV Award for Best Wireless Game, would have a kickin' webpage of its own from its publisher, wouldn't you?
