Many thanks to Dennis Bournique at WAP Review for jumping in to host COM #209. He had a flood of submissions – including a post from a Carnival newcomer (always welcome!). Here are some good reasons to go back and check it out. From new white papers to a look at the iPad launch to MiFi to a hot-off-the-presses app attitude survey – it’s all here.

• Over at Mobile Mandala Mark Jaffe uses convincing stats to show why mobile and media companies need to work together.
• James Coops at Mjelly takes the wraps of his new venture ap(p)tly titled Mobyaffiliates. No pun intended.
