First we got word that RIM was no more, Verizon got dibs on the white Z10, and comes word that T-Mobile will also be carrying BB’s flagship device. There’s not much to report in terms of BB news itself, the general reaction to the [...]

Remember the landmark ruling in Apple’s favor following the big Apple v. Samsung patent lawsuit last summer? Well the TL;DR version could be summed up as follows: A jury found that Samsung “willfully” infringed upon some of Apple’s patents and awarded them $1.049 Billion.

If you watched the incredible Wreck-it Ralph in the theater, you were treated to an outstanding animated short film during the previews called ‘Paperman’.

Not sure how we missed this one, but if you’re 18 years of age or older and “have a deep sense of purpose,” you could be one of the first 8 humans to live on Mars. Nope, this isn’t a joke and though I don’t expect it to look anything like (the original) Total Recall; [...]
