Back in focus
Smartphones have quickly become the most serious challenge facing the conventional compact digital camera. And it is not an exaggeration that camera makers are getting desperate to develop must-have models.

Apple may give peace a chance
Apple may bury the hatchet with Google - just not quite yet. It's no shock their chiefs, Tim Cook and Larry Page, are talking.

The inside track
You ship a package overseas by retaining the services of one of those cargo carriers. You get a number to track your package on the internet.

Court victory may return to bite Apple
Apple won big with Friday's US$1 billion (HK$7.8 billion) US patent judgment against Samsung. In a sense that seems fair, as Apple revolutionized the cell phone and rival products from the Korean manufacturer and other competitors mostly look like copycats.

In an i-Class of its own

Apple TV looking to increase broadcast content
Tech giant Apple Inc is in talks with at least one of the largest US cable companies about building a set-top box that would carry live television and other content, according to a source.

Get a new Outlook
Microsoft Hotmail users can now preview Outlook.com, a new personal e-mail service created by the Redmond, Washington-based technology giant.

Mixed signals
If you think anti-theft tracking software on your smartphone or tablet will help you recover it if it's stolen, you may be mistaken. In January, Melissa Sharpe and fiance Nick Renzi were traveling out of Atlanta's airport when they realized Renzi's work iPad was accidentally left on their plane.
