Remedy: Consumers should stop using the recalled batteries immediately and contact Apple to arrange for a replacement battery, free of charge. After removing the recalled battery from their iBook or PowerBook, consumers should plug in the AC adapter to power the computer until a replacement battery arrives. Consumer Contact: : Contact Apple at (800) 275-2273 between 8 a.m. and 8 p.m. CT Monday through Sunday or log on to Apple’s Web site at http://support.apple.com/batteryprogram to check the battery’s serial number and request a replacement battery.

Worried about continued toWEP at home, this new research finally provides a crack that's usable, within a few hours. You'd need access via another connection to a host already on the internet, some carefully selected hardware and this new software, but you can in about 2 hours read all the traffic, and connect to and use the network.

Microsoft have just pulled their joker out of the hat before the Playstation3 launch. After learning from the original xbox hackers and giving the 360 a mediacentre, (they did Actually credit the xbox hackers in their launch video), they've now announced that they will not only allow homebrew content on the 360, they are encouraging it! http://www.gamasutra.com/php-bin/news_index.php?story=10458 And Sony must be sick to their stomach as they were the most well known company for doing this with their PS1 Net Yaroze project. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Net_Yaroze Friday, August 11

Wi-fi music player gets serious
it plays for Compressed formats (MP3, AAC, Ogg Vorbis, MP2, MusePack, WMA), Uncompressed formats (AIFF, WAV, PCM) and of course Lossless Formats (Apple Lossless, FLAC, WMA Lossless) It seem they really have up'd their game and not compromised with any of the parts or connectors in this one and at $1,999 (£1,079) is not that too pricey for the audiophile pockets.

German archivists have found a way to store and access digital data for centuries -- convert it to analog.
by

on Mon 10 Jul 2006 17:18 BST
The data pool in the universe is continuously growing. More and more information is being saved digitally on CDs and DVDs -- but these thin silver disks have a life-span of only about five years. That may be sufficient for the average user at home or work, but archives and libraries face the threat of massive loss.
At the end of June, specialists gathered for a colloquium in the library at the University of Stuttgart. They met to conclude the so called ARCHE project, which sought a long-term solution for storing digital data -- and found one. microfilm

Fatman iTube
by
The Trained Monkey
on Fri 30 Jun 2006 16:12 BST
Forget today's synthetic sound systems - if you want to give your
digital tracks the audiophile treatment, you need to take a look at the
Fatman iTube.
Yes, it's an old-fashioned valve amp for your portable player, which
promises to give the music from your iPod "a luscious warm analogue
sound". While old-school technology might be at work for the music
output, the iTube is still a very modern piece of kit. It's essentially
a docking station for all iPods (except the shuffle), which comes with
a remote control so you can sit back and enjoy the music - or if you
hook it up to the TV, you can enjoy your pictures and video clips,
again controlled by the remote.
Will it really improve your music that much? You can find out in July, when it goes on sale for £300. http://www.fat-man.co.uk/ Thursday, June 29
