Steve Jobs: The Secular Prophet

| Steve Jobs turned Eve's apple, the symbol of fallen humankind, into a religious icon for true believers in technology. But can salvation be downloaded? For every magical thing Steve Jobs revealed in his Apple keynote addresses, there were many other things he concealed. Like the devices he created, his life was more and more opaque even while becoming more and more celebrated. So his death this week came as a shock for nearly all of us, even though we knew that only grave illness could be keeping him from the company he co-founded and loved. He told us almost nothing... |
Cain would not only defeat Obama electorally, but also the race-laden hopenchangery meme

| Herman Cain In recent weeks, we've all seen the video where Herman Cain completely destroys Clinton on healthcare (and if you haven't, you really should). It's clear that Cain is better at explaining his ideas than any republican president since Reagan. Certainly better than Bush I or Bush II. And Cain is certainly a better debater than Clinton, which means Obama would not stand a chance. The "Cain vs. Unable" slogan is cute. For astute watchers, it's also a little concerning though, as we all know how much the left would benefit from faking the death of Obama, a... |

With the passing of Steve Jobs, the question facing Apple is whether it can come up with "one more thing" to wow consumers without its iconic leader. Jobs, co-founder and chairman of Apple (AAPL), was known to introduce big surprises at the end of media events by announcing that he had "one more thing" to show the crowd. As CEO of Apple, he introduced such ground-breaking products as the iMac personal computer, the iPod music player, the iPhone smartphone and the iPad media tablet. In his early days with the company, he led the PC revolution with the Apple II...

| Apple has rolled out phase one of its cloud music offering this week, allowing iTunes users to download additional copies of past purchases on up to ten devices. However, users that bought their music on iTunes before Apple abandoned DRM some two years ago better get ready for an unexpected surprise: Files originally bought with Apples Fairplay copy protection are also once again downloaded with DRM. A number of users complained about this strange behavior on Twitter and on the web, with one stating that this would bring back bad memories. We were able to confirm it by re-downloading a... |
Apple iPod 'could be charged by the human heart'

| The human heartbeat could be used to power an ipod after scientists developed a tiny chip which uses the body's own movement to generate power. Scientists hope that as the nanotechnology used in the chip evolves, it could lead to electronics which don't require batteries or mains power. Hailed as a milestone, it can use tiny movements such as the pinch of a finger to generate power. The team, presenting their findings at the National Meeting & Exposition of the American Chemical Society, have used it to power LCD displays and diodes, as well as to transmit a radio signal... |

Sony retires the cassette Walkman after 30 years

After retiring the floppy disk in March, Sony has halted the manufacture and distribution of another now-obsolete technology: the cassette Walkman, the first low-cost, portable music player. The final batch was shipped to Japanese retailers in April, according to IT Media. Once these units are sold, new cassette Walkmans will no longer be available through the manufacturer. The first generation Walkman (which was called the Soundabout in the U.S., and the Stowaway in the UK) was released on July 1, 1979 in Japan. Although it later became a huge success, it only sold 3,000 units in its first month. Sony...
