The iPhone and iPhone 3G have been famously flamed for its lack of features like cut-and-paste capability, Flash support, and MMS (also known as video- or picture-messaging).

Swedish iPhone owners will soon have something they can hold over the heads of most other users of the touchscreen handset: an Apple-sanctioned way of...

Tough times call for weirder gimmicks! Sharp unveiled a 26-foot tall Christmas tree made by stacking 43 of its Aquos LCD televisions at the Grand Central Station.

All the displays are hooked together to show videos of waterfall that spilling from the top...

Akin to a spotlight, the Sunforce HID features a 35 watt HID bulb and 12V 7Ah battery that shines with 40 Million Candlepower.
