It’s been a pretty busy week in tech. Maybe you’ve missed some stuff in the midst of a little upgrade known as the 3G S, or the recent “KindleGate” firestorm (pausing while everyone calls Amazon to get clarification on whether that DRM content you paid for & own is still accessible).
Done? OK. Good. We know you’re busy. You just don’t have time to keep up with every single update and product release out there. That’s alright, because we have you covered. So, sit back, relax and take a look at our weekly roundup, highlighting just a few of the items you may have missed over the past few days.
