- Rumor Has It: Camera Still Bound for iPod Touch – "At the Apple iPod event this past September, the iPod nano got a video upgrade, but despite rumors to the contrary, the iPod touch didn’t get a similar treatment. The internet was ablaze with expectation thanks to the appearance of a number of iPod touch cases with camera holes built-in, all positioned the same, which seemed like a fair indicator that video was coming to the touchscreen iPod."
- Third iPhone worm targets jailbroken iPhones in Europe, Australia – "Another week, another worm hitting jailbroken iPhones. As with the previous exploits, which Rickrolled your phone’s wallpaper and stole your data, this nasty piece of work burrows its way into your jailbroken device if you haven’t changed the password for the iPhone’s root account—you have changed your root password, right? Right?"
- Why The Google Phone Could Dampen Android Phone Sales – "Consumers interested in buying phones based on the Android open source operating system may feel some hesitation with the emerging rumors of a Google phone. Such a phone would likely provide a more fully integrated user experience, similar to Apple's iPhone. Ultimately, this could hurt sales of the Motorola Droid, HTC Eris and other Android devices based on hardware from manufacturers and software from Google and application developers. EWEEK looks at the buyer's dilemma here."

- Does Second-Hand Smoke Really Void Apple’s Warranty? – "There are excellent reasons not to smoke cigarettes. And there are also stupid reasons, like Apple's claim that cigarette smoke can void its warranty. Really."
- Apple’s iPhone App Store Approvals a Necessary Evil – "The Apple App Store has been the subject of debate. Developers complain about the hoops they have to jump through to get through the approval process, while Apple defends the process and claims there is nothing wrong with the App Store. As with most things, the truth lies somewhere in the middle."
