Sony Ericsson Xperia Play Now $100 on Verizon Wireless
Sony Ericsson has been in the smartphone game for quite some time with many different smartphones and other handsets that have seen varying levels of success.

This is not to say that Sony Ericsson hasn’t done anything over the years as the Xperia X10 has seen a largely dedicated community supporting it despite being released nearly a year ago.Now a days is ...

GE’s new holographic storage burns 500GB discs at the speed of a Blu-ray
Holographic disc storage may not have worked out so well for InPhase, but the folks at General Electric are still trying to make HVD work. Their latest breakthrough, shown off today at an IEEE symposium in Hawaii, is a new micro-holographic material which is 100x more sensitive than its predecessor and ups recording speed to that of Blu-ray discs. In the two years since we saw it last some of the hyperbole has apparently been lost -- no ...

IBM Takes Another Step Towards Reliable Phase-Change Memory
Although the world is currently enamored of flash memory, today’s standard for solid-state storage, companies like IBM need to think a few years ahead. One of the technologies they’re looking at is called phase-change memory, in which a memory cell changes from a crystalline to amorphous phase, changing its resistance. Put a bunch of those together, and you’ve got yourself a binary storage system. The trouble was that they couldn’t store more than one bit per cell, which means the tech couldn’t really scale. They’ve just figured ...
