I’ve written about Authentec’s biometric fingerprint sensors before (here and here), so it’s nice to be able to follow-up on stories from time to time. The latest from Authentec is that their biometric sensors are now diverging in to other, cutting-edge uses and applications - for example...

Citigroup analyst Mark Mahaney is saying that Amazon.com will sell nearly 400,000 Kindles this year, which could build up to account for 4% of Amazon’s total revenues, projected in to 2010. Okay, it’s not a Mobile phone as we know it, but it represents one of the splinter technologies that...

It just won't die. The idea of sending various scents and odors along with your mobile-message isn't novel and it looks like it's not going to go away any time soon. A group of German tech developers have announced that they've patented hardware that would allow mobile phone users...

What we have here is Samsung's short teaser video made only for one purpose - to annoy us. Well guys you succeeded, you're showing us a cool device which we still can't have. That's at least those of us not living in South Korea. Apparently, the device filmed on a video bellow wears...
