An enterprising individual has managed to get Google’s Android operating system up and running on a second-generation iPhone. He says that getting the same result on an iPhone 3G “should be pretty simple,” though the 3GS may provide …

The Story
In the 1930s, a girl exploring the Copper Canyon region of Mexico stumbled upon an adult-sized skeleton in an abandoned mine. Next to the skeleton was a mound of dirt under which was buried a child-size skeleton.
Once unearthed, the skull of the smaller skeleton proved to be unusual in that “the volume of the interior …
All these smartbooks that are due to show up this year may very well be what everyone had in mind for netbooks originally. Case in point: the Compaq AirLife 100, which was announced in Spain earlier this year, has now shown up on HP’s US website.
There’s no word on pricing or availability yet, but specs include a customized Android

Google’s Chrome OS will be here this year and in a recent interview, Google CEO Eric Schmidt explained that Chrome devices will be “completely disposable,” meaning that if you lose one you won’t lose any of your data, and should be priced similarly to netbooks—between $300 and $400.

Digital billboards exist, yes, but why not make some of them connected billboards that anybody could use to run custom advertising campaigns similar to how Google’s AdWords platform works?

The Classic Controller Pro is also available in white or as part of a special limited-edition bundle for $60, …
Garmin recently announced its Nuvi 3790T GPS system at a price of $450. You’d be forgiven for mistaking it for a smartphone, though, as the 3700 series measures in at just nine millimeters (0.35 inches) thick, about the same as a #2 pencil. Add to that a 4.3-inch 800×480-resolution multitouch display, advanced navigation features, and

Good morning. Happy Monday. How are things? Good? Great. Here’s some iPad news. For starters, if you’ve been waiting for the “late April” 3G-enabled model, the Apple Store has been updated to reflect a May 7th ship date.
So that’s technically late April if you consider a week into May still April. UPDATE: Apple has just …
Dell is slowly ambling its way into the tablet arena. This summer we’ll see the Dell Streak 5, an unfortunately-named 5-inch Android tablet that’ll feature AT&T 3G and Wi-Fi connectivity. That’s a decently sized screen but the 800×480 resolution may leave people wanting more.
In that spirit, Dell will also be launching 7- and
