    Judge OKs Class-Action eBook Price-Fixing Suit

    AnonymousThis all depends one which sale model you prefer. The Amazon model is: "Mr. Publisher, you sell Amazon the books at a very discounted price and Amazon will turn around and set the retail price even lower (to even below the suggested retail price) to sell to our customers". Amazon loses...

    Crytek Calls Used Games Block ''Absolutely Awesome''

    My comment will probably never be seen since it's now up to 3 pages - but here goes. What they need to do is (like everyone else says) lower initial price. That will cut back piracy slightly by drawing the crowd that is only doing it because it's too expensive. Then, they need to embrace the...

    Netflix Never Used That $1 Million Winning Algorithm

    frank_drebinwhen they gonna have latest movies, that's what i want to know! They say that one of the reasons for shifting from movies (streaming and DVD) to TV Shows is because TV episodes is what most people use... But the reality is, most people use it for TV because Netflix constantly fails...

    Is Apple Working on a Game Controller for iPhone and iPad?

    pythyApple would be stupid not to "develop" it's own controller. Just copy the the other controllers, whack an "i" in front of it, mark up the price and voila, brand new Apple controller!! You forgot "revolutionary".

    High School Student Expelled for Cursing in Tweet

    eiskrystalComing from an Italian background my father was strict and when i was out of line it was the belt, as he often said "my house, my rules" "you don't like my rules then leave with the cloths you have on you" lesson learned. Heck he kicked me out of the house for not getting a haircut...

    Asus Can Keep Selling Tablets Using "Transformer" Label

    I actually agree with a couple of you here. Transformer by itself was coming close to the line of infringement, but IMO clearly not "sueable" because that's what the device does... it transforms from a tablet to a laptop, and "Transformer" is a common word. Now the addition of "Prime", a less...

    NEC LED Ceiling Light with Integrated Speaker is a Great Idea

    it would be nice if multiple lights were linked together throughout the house with an integrated mic. That way you could leave your cell phone on the charging dock, while you walk around the house from room to room having a conversation. That would be pretty sick.

    New iPad Already Jailbroken in Three Ways

    molo9000Have you actually encountered any malware on your Mac?It's not invulnerable, but so far there has been very little malware for Mac OS X over the years. Even simple scare-ware like Mac Defender gets big media attention.It's difficult to argue about security if there are no real attacks...

    Tether an iPhone Connection? There's an HTML5 App For That

    quotas47Except you have to modify your phone's software. Not everyone is comfortable doing that. I don't like the bloatware, but I get mobile hotspot/wired+bluetooth tethering already so it's not necessary for me to use a 3rd party app.BUT - I have used tether.com's blackberry AND android...

    Tether an iPhone Connection? There's an HTML5 App For That

    Back when I had my iPhone 4 I was jailbroken and used MyWi (I think that's what it was at least), and it worked great. Now that I'm on my Thunderbolt, I'm rooted, Rommed and am using some other WiFi Tether app that I happened to find (I don't think it's on the android market, you have to...

    New iPad's 4G LTE Data Plans and Pricing Revealed

    scook9If you are on Verizon, just get her a 4G phone and she should be ok I believe. I switched from 3g to 4g with no plan change (still unlimited), but I did do that about a month before they went tiered, pretty sure you should be ok though duh - you said it yourself, it worked for you because...

    Verizon Releases ICS Upgrade List for 4G LTE Devices

    My thunderbolt is rooted and rommed with BAMF Forever. I actually don't know if I can go back to stock to get the OTA update or not, but I prefer my phone being rooted anyway - so I just hope those fantastic guys (and probably gals) at XDA can take this OTA update and create a custom rom out of...

    I have been waiting for these, but nowhere in the article does it list the physical size of each device. Fail on that one Toms.

    7-inch Google Nexus Tablet In Production This April?

    So, I have no idea how I haven't heard of this "Xyboard" tablet yet. Just looked it up, and I think that 8.1" is the one for me. I was going to wait for the Prime 7" but I think this is the one. I almost got the Galaxy 8.9 because the size was EXACTLY what I'm looking for (I actually feel 7"...

    molo9000A smaller iPad would have never happened with Steve Jobs sill around.... unless this is part of the whole "fight against Android to the last bullet" thing.What people want are lighter and bigger tablets, not smaller and cheaper.A 11"-13" tablet with the same weight as current tablets...
