Ten Years from now, will this be the Shuffle?
This is a concept model of what the iPod will look like come 2020.
According to my source, this futuristic Shuffle will have “unlimited music and battery capacity”. I don’t doubt that as much as my source, because if this Shuffle has access to Wi-Fi, it could easily have access to as many songs as the user can buy, thanks to cloud computing. As for unlimited power, it would have to be solar powered, I guess.

Steve Jobs introduces the Death Star
This is an idea so beautiful in its execution that you wonder why it hasn't been done before -- take Steve Jobs' rapturous introduction of the iPad, and put it over the footage from Star Wars of the Death Star briefing. It's a perfect geeky mashup -- I especially love Han Solo's indifference ("It's just a big iPod touch, Chewie"), and the random jeers from the audience. Also, Google Maps on the Death Star looks a little different than on my phone, ...
Asus Eee Pad EP121 12-inch tablet is lighter, thinner, faster than the iPad
There you go, after many rumors, we finally get a glance at the Asus Eee Pad, a 12" tablet that is powered by an Intel Core Duo CULV (low voltage) processor. Yes, I know, it's kind of surprising, as one would have expected an Atom or something like that in there - even if it runs Windows 7 Home Premium. This Eee Pad is 12.2mm thick and weighs 1.48Lbs (675g), which is slightly ...

Boggle for iPad and Might & Magic HK out now, Star Wars Tower Defense coming soon
Here are a few games to try out over the holiday weekend. Boggle for iPad has been released by EA. I got to play the game at an event last week, and while the core functionality isn't much different than that of Bookworm or its many clones, the bright, full iPad graphics are impressive. Outside of the simple Boggle gameplay, there are a few other modes to check out as well, including time-based challenges, multiplayer game types, ...

AT&T prepping MobileProtect insurance program for iPhone?
Shots of some docs over on BGR have us believing that AT&T is on the cusp of launching a program called "MobileProtect," but don't be fooled by the fancy name -- this is basically an Asurion-operated handset insurance plan just like any other, the only real difference being that it's for the iPhone and offered directly by the carrier. Interestingly, it seems that you'll buy the protection through the App Store of all things, automatically billing the credit card that you've ...

Over Six Months Later, Google Finally Closes AdMob Acquisition
Over six months after announcing its plans to acquire leading mobile ad network AdMob , Google has finally closed the deal. The news comes a week after the FTC unanimously approved the deal, after holding it up for months as it decided whether or not to block it on antitrust grounds. When it finally reached a decision, the FTC pointed to Apple's recent entry into the mobile ad market with iAds as evidence that there would still be plenty of competition in the nascent mobile advertising space ...
