Someone or the other happens to use these patents in their devices, unaware (either by choice or ignorance) that it is a patented thingy. Thus suffer Motorola the wrath of Microsoft who claim that the former have infringed patent rules and have hence move ITC. There are a total of nine patent infringements that Microsoft has complained about....

Don’t get edgy on your seat reading this. There’s still a lot to prove the tangibility of the same. However, anything to do with the Windows Phone 7, before its release, is going to get people talking. So I wonder if it’s just this ramble that lead to the news bite that states that Microsoft and AT&T will be giving the Windows Phone 7 a tangible introduction in NYC. Oh, and they’ve also got a date: October 11th. There’s also...

Dr. Dre knows how to spin-off his awesome merchandise to meet the needs of those who may even detest him. So he reached the not-so-hard factions of society by getting two sets of his new headphones to be endorsed by Justing Bieber and LeBron James respectively. These ‘JustBeats’ headphones are colored purple and have a matte finish. Hell, I nearly did a back flip at that one. Need I say any more? It won’t matter much to Dr. Dre anyways....

When you think of innovatively designed syringes the only thing that really comes to your mind is their purpose among dopers and trippers. But hey, the Socorex Pistol Grip Syringe is something that does much more. Yeah, it actually squirts a perfect 10ml dilution of water into your scotch to give you the fineness in subtlety. So for those of you who share my views on alcohol being a better subject for syringes over dope, say ‘Aye!’....

Peugeot's new HR1 urban concept car which will be seen for the first time when the Paris Motor Show opens on Saturday, was created to “appeal to young city dwellers.” We've heard that before, but this time it really does look like they've “nailed it!” The styling, scrumptious seats, electric scissor doors to facilitate access in tight spots, a heads-up a “movement recognition” system (allowing the driver to scroll through functions and select settings with hand movements) and a...

Liquid Galaxies is a Google concept that can be found at conferences held by the search giant and in their offices all over the world (damn those luck sons of….). They’ve even donated a module to the Tech Museum in San Jose, California. Since it was a concept that only a few people got to enjoy, Google in their infinity philanthropy, decided to incorporate a few of the features into the latest release of Google Earth, and open-source all...

When Apollo 11 landed on the moon and Armstrong's said those legendary words, the world stood quietly together and watched in awe. The thing is, they didn’t really watch the whole thing. It seems there’s a bit of recovered footage that has a little bit more that we haven’t seen. For the first time since the landing, this lost footage will be screened and the venue is the 2010 Australian Geographic Society Awards in Sydney. The event will be...

It was only a matter of time before someone developed technology that allowed you to watch the world on a TV screen so that it looked better than real life. That time is now and the guys the who’ve got the show rolling are none other than BBC. Together with Japan’s NHK team, they're shooting video in 4320p which is termed as Super Hi-Vision, aka SHV. That’s 16 times more pixels than even 1080p. So naturally we’ll be seeing...

So we have some experts who are working really hard to ensure that we do not suffer the loss of beer sippings by inventing space-friendly beer. This beer is simply called ‘space beer’ and is off the orbit of the earth to be tested among stars, planets, vacuum and nothingness. Astronauts4Hire is the organization...
