It’s been a while since we’ve done a roundup; we can’t promise we’ll make it a regular post again, but for now here is the tech news of the day. First things first, here’s a quick musical interlude: We already got Woz’s opinion on Android apps, but Wired spoke to devs and they explain why [...]

In an article in Business Insider, the patron saint of all things geek, Steve Wozniak heavily poured on the praise for the Nokia Lumia 900. Wozniak is no stranger to the concept of “device agnostic” as he’s been known to dabble with Android handsets and is prominently seen at iPhone/iPad launch days. Wozniak recently appeared on [...]

Looks like there’s trouble in the Mushroom Kingdom, Nintendo’s latest quarterly earnings report is not looking good. According to a report in Forbes, the Big N reported a net loss to the tune of $461.2M – worse still, selling the Nintendo 3DS at a loss isn’t helping matters either. Worse still is the projected plan [...]

It was a big day today in New York, the new home to the Space Shuttle Enterprise. There’s not much to say other than we at The Noisecast will miss the Shuttle; and yes, Chris, I am aware that this is only a test Shuttle and never actually went to space. On a blustery spring day, [...]

Later this morning, Space Shuttle Enterprise will be making her way to her new (and permanent) home at the Intrepid Sea, Air, and Space Museum in Manhattan’s West Side. It will be truly an historic event along with a once-in-a-lifetime chance to see the Shuttle piggybacked on a 747 Jumbo jet. If this doesn’t sound [...]

The above was a screen shot taken from a Finnish electronics store, Gigantti, advertising pre-orders for a “Fuchsia Red” Nokia Lumia 900. According to the Finnish retailer, the phone was expected to ship in May. If you notice the use of the past-tense in our lede, that’s because this morning it appears that you can [...]

All things old are new again, at least that seems to be the case for mobile gaming. We’re not complaining one bit. Capcom recently announced the official street date for their classic button-masher, Marvel vs. Capcom 2, coming to iOS in just a couple of days. The iOS (iPhone and iPod Touch) app will bring its full [...]

Here we go again. Today, Ars Technica reported that Samsung released a fact sheet for all the confirmed ICS (Android 4.0) eligible handsets and it seems that for the most part, if you’ve recently purchased a Galaxy variant, you can expect to get all the goodness that’s promised in ICS. Unless you’re a T-Mobile customer. T-Mobile [...]

In our never-ending quest to find the perfect cloud storage solution, Microsoft’s SkyDrive is officially a desktop app for Windows and Mac. The free app went live this morning and will provide a native desktop interface for those files you have to access everywhere, for a price. Yes, I said it’s a free app, but [...]

As in my previous review, I decided to take a quick spin in a Kia Optima Hybrid just to see what it’s like. Now, I’m not a car person. I prefer SUVs and trucks, but I appreciate the savings at the pump that comes with a car, and that’s what led me to pick the [...]
