Sony Electronics will begin selling two hard-drive music players this US fall which, combined with its new music download service, will create an iPod-like parallel universe.
Samsung is warning its customers that NAND flash memory might be hard to come by for some time after Apple placed a large order, according to a report out of Taiwan.
Although a discrepancy between the traditional and modern definitions of kilobyte has led to Seagate Technology offering a rebate on their hard drives, a Seagate representative has confirmed that Australians will not be eligible for the refund.
Seagate Technology, the world's largest hard-drive maker, is offering customers a five percent refund on drives bought during the last six years following a lawsuit over the definition of a "gigabyte". As an alternative, customers can choose to receive free backup software.
Apple doubled the capacity of the iPhone and the iPod Touch on Tuesday.
People were apparently switching their brains off before joining the 3G iPhone queues, so it's somewhat surprising that considering an appropriate amount of storage was quite a high priority for many buyers.
A while back, frustration with my inability to get online outside of the office drove me to invest in a 3G data service from Hutchinson's 3. For $30 per month, I get 2GB of data that's accessible pretty much anywhere I go (I do all my work in metropolitan areas).
The Olympics are nearly over, and the Australian team deserves kudos for an excellent performance all around. Yet even as the Olympic sun sets on the Bird's Nest for the last time this weekend, millions of spectators around the world will be scanning their dials in the hope of finding something else to fill their viewing hours.
I can't say I ever thought a laptop was too heavy or bulky or genuinely inconvenient because I couldn't effortlessly slide one into an unpadded manila envelope.
I can't wait for the new iPhone to come out mainly because I'm so dog-tired of listening to the never-ending screeds of rumour mongering nonsense speculating on what functionality the device will have that come out every single day. So I've decided to join in. I'm 100 per cent convinced the new iPhone will run Vista and have WiMax connectivity. In fact I'd bet my house on it.

Not convinced Apple's iPhone is the 'must have' device it's been heralded as? We take a look at a few alternatives that provide some advantages over the iPhone in its current incarnation.
SanDisk co-founder and CEO Eli Harari continues to fight the good fight against Apple's iPod juggernaut, but even he's starting to look toward the future.
Will Apple's iPhone reshape the mobile phone market? Are there better devices actually available already? We put the iPhone head-to-head with its competition to see how it stacks up.
Ever wanted to see what makes an Apple MacBook Air tick? We crack one open in the interest of science.
After braving the cold and battling the queues we rushed this 16GB iPhone back to the labs so you could share this special moment with us.
Apple's 10GB iPod offers twice the music storage of its predecessor, adds new features, and in a radical departure from the industry norm, doesn't cost twice as much.
We love almost everything about this beautifully designed player, but the battery life could be longer.

While parts of the iPhone 3G are superb, there are still some big features missing from this device. If you add up the extras the iPhone doesn't seem like a phone that everyone can afford.
