    MSFT, Apple, HTC, Google, LG, Moto ALL Get Sued

    Chinese Students Forced into Foxconn Internships

    China is not a pure Communist country anymore, they are a mix. They do allow outside/private companies to compete, and not just state owned everything. As such they are technically a Socialist State. However China still maintains their Iron grip on information and their people so despite being...

    Prof. Predicted iPhone 4 Problems Before Launch

    edileeiPhone fail! I can't stop laughing. Didn't they test this crap before releasing it? Actually if you remember back to the first leaked iPhone 4 you will remember (besides a $5000 bounty and a pending law suit) that the test model was 'concealed' inside a fake iPhone 3g body? No direct...

    Verizon's Droid 2 Specs Leaked

    Motoblur? Why ruin the Android OS with THAT?! Sorry, but maybe it's because I don't have 20 twitter accounts, or three facebooks, a myspace and a thousand rss feeds, but from what I've seen of the Motoblur user interface, it's not really worth having compared to the standard Android UI.

    Froyo Update: Carriers Control Who Has Tethering

    I was talking to a Verizon rep last week about this, he skirted the issue since there was no 'official' announcement of 2.2 or tether, and since nothing was official his bosses had nothing to say that he could relay. Anyways... when I asked about Android and tether in general, (versus 2.2...

    Android 2.2 Froyo Shown at Google I/O

    I hate to say it but Verizon will most likely block tethering and mobile hotspot features of 2.2 for the US market. Verizon blocked the BlackBerry's tether feature, well unless you pay an extra $29.99 a month for the first 5 gigs. Heck the only reason they let Palm get away with hotspot...

    The Shape-Shifting Car of the Future

    My concern would be wind. With that high of a side panel and such a thin wheel base, it almost looks like the slightest breeze would send you flying.
