Nikon Coolpix S9100 extends an 18x zoom from a compact body capable of 1080p video
Last we heard from Nikon on the topic of high-end point-and-shoot cameras, it was touting Full HD video and a backside-illuminated 12.1 megapixel CMOS sensor on its S8100. Well, here comes the S9100, still possessing those goodies, but now it's attaching them to a lens capable of 18x optical zoom -- a feature you'd usually expect to find on shooters far bulkier than this pocket-friendly portable. ISO sensitivity can stretch up to 3200 (only 800 in automatic mode), ...

LG Optimus 2X review
The world cried out for a dual-core smartphone and LG and NVIDIA answered the call. Actually, the world only ever dreamt about multicore mobile architectures up until late last year, but sometimes that's all it takes to get those zany engineers engineering. So here we are, in early February 2011, beholding the world's first smartphone built around a dual-core processor, the Optimus 2X. This is a landmark handset in more ways than one, however, as ...

1 in 3 american ‘borrow’ WiFi from others
Capturing web sessions data over WiFi is very easy
The WiFi Alliance has published a study in which they found that 32% of people (in the U.S) use a WiFi connection that is not theirs. It is usually the WiFi network of someone nearby their home or work (that makes sense…). Interestingly, many people don’t protect their WiFi network, even with a simple password. I suspect that this is particularly true with older routers where the router user interface could be very intimidating, ...

iOS 4.3 Launching For Everyone On February 14th?
It’s pretty much a standard operation at this point: Apple releases one Beta version of iOS — then about two weeks later, they release another. Two weeks after that? Another beta. Right around this point — around the third or fourth Beta — the whispers surrounding a potential release date begin.

According to MacStories and their “reliable source”, iOS 4.3 should be hittin’ iPhones around the ...
