Apple now has the support of a USB industry standards group in its battle to keep the Palm Pre from using the iTunes music service.The USB Implementers Forum (USB-IF) said in a statement Tuesday that Apple can block the Pre from connecting to iTunes. The group issued a letter to both companies warning Palm that further attempts to use iTunes would violate the group’s policy.The voice of the USB-IF is strong in this case since the group is responsible for issuing Apple the hardware vendor ID that lets its devices connect to iTunes via USB. Palm has used this process…

Verizon passing on the Pre after all?

If a report from TheStreet.com has it right, Verizon won’t be picking up the Palm Pre after all. Showcased at this year’s CES, Palm’s flagship phone garnered quite the following, and was praised as a potential iPhone killer. Just prior to its official debut on Sprint’s network in June, Verizon said it would offer the smartphone within six months.Sprint replied by saying it held exclusive rights to the Pre through 2009, which left most with the impression that the handset would be available via Verizon in January 2010. Palm’s CEO Jon Rubinstein recently fueled that anticipation when he said the…

The Blind Juggler

The Blind Juggler is a robot that juggles or bounces balls in a controlled manner without any sensory input. It is basically just a linear actuator with a paddle on the end to smack the ball back into the air as it returns to the ground. The crazy thing is, it is doing this based purely on pre programmed math. There are no sensors telling it to make any adjustments. While we could envision this functioning, we would never have expected it to be as stable as it is. You can see in the video above that they can…

How To Choose The Best Life Insurance?

If that’s the only life insurance you carry on yourself, then you’re relying on that policy to support your family in the event of your death. The policy might be a sufficient amount to see your family through. First, the size of the policy you need depends on several factors. For example, your life insurance will probably need to cover the costs of your funeral and burial. (Unless you have a Pre-Paid Funeral Plan, that is.) Any doctor and hospital bills that may be incurred during the illness or injury that led up to your death would need to be…

Palm Pre GPS Tweets

[Mike] sent in this project he’s been working on. He has posted instructions on how to get your Palm Pre to tweet its GPS coordinates at regular intervals. It does require that you have Linux installed on your Pre, but that’s not that big of an issue as he has a tutorial for that too. Getting the tweet to happen involves setting up a custom PHP file that sends the tweet, then a cron job to get it to run on a schedule. He mentions this could be use full for finding a lost phone as well as keeping…

HackTheBadge 1.0

[Martin] tipped us off to HackTheBadge 1.0. Possibly more elusive than the NinjaBadge, HackTheBadge has a Dpad, a 3×5 LED matrix, Arduino compatable headers, and 46 GPIO channels. You can download the open source plans if you didn’t get one at Defcon. You probably didn’t, there were only 14 given out. You can also order one pre assembled.  This makes us wonder, does being low in quantity qualify this as elusive?

Air Cleaners

How Electronic Air Cleaners Work
Electronic air cleaners clean the air without a filter. Most contain a collection grid to attract the impurities. These must be cleaned regularly. You can purchase these systems to clean one room at a time or have a whole house system installed to keep every room clean.
As the air passes through the machine, it is given an electrical charge. This also charges the impurities in the air. The charged particles are then attracted to an oppositely charged collection grid, which acts as a magnet for the particles. Some have no collection grid. In this…

Facebook’s Biggest Competition: Mobile Platforms

When the Facebook platform launched two years ago, thousands of developers flocked to participate in a land grab opportunity. Two years later mobile platforms appear to be most effective at attracting entrepreneurial teams of application developers. Steve Ballmer, Microsoft’s CEO, has famously emphasized the importance of developers (see video here). Any successful platform needs to attract developers and Facebook has been especially effective at doing so.

Through Facebook developer garages and the fbFund, Facebook has attracted the attention of many developers but since the launch of last year’s iPhone, things have changed. In today’s New York Times, Jenna Wortham writes…
