The Cupertino, Calif., company has ordered key components such as display panels and chips for a new iPad it is aiming to launch in early 2012, said the people. Read more...

Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos Filed To Patent Airbags For Smartphones
If you’re prone to dropping your smartphone, then Amazon’s CEO Jeff Bezos may have just the solution for you. Airbags! A patent application filing recently surfaced with the inventors listed as Bezos himself along with Amazon VP Greg Hart. The patent app is titled “a system and method for protecting devices from impact damage.”
The invention involves a safety monitoring system that uses a gyroscope, camera, infrared beam, radar and various other sensors to determine if a device is risk damage from impact. In a split second, protection can be deployed in the form of airbags, springs, or even air propulsion. Read more...

PSC approves ATT/T-Mobile deal
State regulators have approved AT&T's plan to purchase T-Mobile, a move that AT&T representatives say will let the company eventually bring high-speed "fourth-generation" wireless coverage to most West Virginians.
In an order issued Friday, the Public Service Commission ruled that the deal would not harm wireless competition in the state because T-Mobile has only 0.26 percent of the West Virginia market. Read more...

You can already jailbreak iOS 4.3.4 on most devices (tethered)
Apple released a security update for iPhone, iPod touch, and iPad models yesterday. It was designed to close a security hole that allowed some corrupted PDF files to inject code onto your device. That would be pretty scary stuff — except it also happens to be the same security hole hackers had used to jailbreak the iPad 2 and other devices.
If you’ve jailbroken your iOS device, the best thing to do at this point is probably to avoid updating to iOS 4.3.4 (or iOS 4.2.9 for Verizon iPhone users). You can still patch that security hole by installing an app from Cydia called PDF Patcher 2. Read more...

H-P Girds for iPad Battle
Friday will be a critical test for Hewlett-Packard Co. as it scrambles to launch its first tablet computer to rival Apple Inc.'s iPad.
H-P's device, the TouchPad, comes more than a year after Apple started selling its iPad. In that time, Apple has sold more than 25 million tablets and added nearly $100 billion in market capitalization. H-P, meanwhile, has lost $50 billion. Read more...

WebOS Pivot aims to boost HP apps pizzazz
When Hewlett-Packard's WebOS tablet debuts next week it won't have nearly the number of apps as its competitors. But the company thinks it can use that to its advantage. That's where WebOS Pivot comes in.
HP introduced the feature of its HP App Catalog today for the first time. Pivot is essentially a magazine, published every month, with its app store. It will highlight featured applications, interesting developers, and popular apps. Read more...

The Nook Nails It
By now, most everyone in your circle of friends has played with a Kindle and an iPad. Fewer have picked up a Nook. But I’d urge you to give this dark horse a shot.
I’ve been testing the newest black and white version of Barnes & Noble’s e-reader, and, well, you can color me impressed. Read more...

Two iPhone 4s To Be Shot Into Space
Ever try a FaceTime from space? Astronauts on board the space shuttle mission STS-135, tentatively scheduled for a July 8 launch, will be bringing along two Apple stowaways for the nearly 220-mile trip up to the International Space Station (ISS). Two iPhone 4 smartphones will join the four-astronaut crew for the final voyage of NASA's three-decade-long space shuttle program, carried into the stars via the institution's orbiter Atlantis.
And, no, the astronauts aren't just looking to figure out the effects of weightlessness on their Angry Birds games. Nor will they actually use the phones to make any calls—the "phone" features of the iPhone 4s have been disabled for the voyage. Odyssey Space Research has actually constructed a custom SpaceLab for iOS app, which will allow astronauts to perform four different experiments while onboard the ISS: Read more...
