That's right, you can share you iPhone's data plan, something you haven't been able to do, with a WiFi-only iPad for only $20 more a month, which is inline with AT&T's tethering plan though the US carrier doesn't offer a means to te...

graphics engine, right? You see where I’m going
with this.

Designer Sylvain Gerber must have gotten sick and tired of all the iPod docks out there which look pretty ordinary, which could be the reason why he came up with the Snowflake Dock you see here.

YouTube previously limited its non-partners to just 10 minutes or under for video uploading, but now the Google-owned video service has increased that time to 15 minutes, giving users more control over the content they upload.
The ten-minute cap before was instituted in large part due to copyright concerns--YouTube and Google didn't want users to upload a full TV show or movie and infringe upon the copyright holder's rights to the film, but now th...

The
prices, they are dropping, dropping. Yesterday had Amazon lowering
the bar yet again with the
announcement of a new, improved, and cheaper Kindle. Today we
have news of a 5" tablet (the same size as the Dell
Streak) selling for a paltry $99. It's called the Ocean Reader,

strange market. There are current...
