It was just the other day we heard rumblings regarding the Palm Pixi launch date. Rumor had it the Pixi would join us in the mobile world on October 20th. A date that seemed so tasty, mostly because it’s not that far away. For some reason I thought the date seemed a little premature… don’t…

Saturday Silliness: T-Pain Auto-Tunes President Barack Obama

Lloyds International is making a really interesting move with many of their Australian employees. They’re moving some 400 staffers over to the iPhone. Cool!
