The American Civil Liberties Union and other groups have filed a lawsuit challenging the U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) practice of searching laptops and other electronic devices at U.S. borders. The lawsuit, filed Tuesday by the ACLU, the New York Civil Liberties Union and the National Association of Criminal Defense Layers (NACDL), challenges a 2008 CBP policy that allows border agents to search electronic devices of any traveler, without suspicion of wrongdoing. In some cases, border agents have copied the contents of the devices or confiscated them. The lawsuit asks the court for an order prohibiting searches of electronic devices at borders without a warrant and probable cause or reasonable suspicion of criminal activity. The groups filed the lawsuit to "protect the rights of all Americans to cross the border free from intrusive government searches," said Catherine Crump, staff attorney with the ACLU Speech, Privacy and Technology Project. The border laptop searches... Detailt »» 
Samsung has announced a dual-core application processor for tablets PCs, netbooks and smartphones that will be able to handle 1080p video playback and recording, the company said on Tuesday. The Orion processor contains a pair of 1GHz ARM Cortex A9 cores, and its capabilities give a hint at what we can expect from mobile products in 2011. Besides handling video playback and recording at 1080p and 30 frames per second, a smartphone based on Orion can be equipped with two displays, while at the same driving a third external display such as a TV or a monitor via an HDMI port, according to Samsung. Samsung is also pushing Orion's graphics performance. With an improved graphics processor, Orion is capable of delivering five times the 3D graphics performance over the previous processor generation from Samsung, which is used on its smartphone Galaxy S and the newly announced Galaxy Tab. Orion will be available to "select customers in the fourth quarter of 2010" and will go into "mass production... Detailt »» 
You can't install the apps you want on your smartphone. You can't play the movies you bought on your PC. You can't even walk into a store without getting upsold, enrolled, restocked, and recalled. Welcome to the world of tech in 2010, where your phone doesn't work--and companies tell you that "you're holding it wrong." Just because you venture into the tech marketplace with a credit card in your hand doesn't mean you deserve to get screwed. Check out these 12 ways that the tech industry is pulling a fast one on you--and learn how to fight back. Ridiculous Restocking Fees Bought a laptop and realized it wasn't for you? No problem, you can return it within 30 days--that'll be $150, please. Restocking fees are an easy way for vendors to make a tidy profit from a consumer's buying misstep. The rationale for such fees may be to discourage cheapskates who have no intention of keeping a device from buying it, using it for a short time--say, for the length of a vacation--and then returning... Detailt »»

Look out Google, you may have a new, unlikely challenger. Google may be the first place people turn to for Web search, but the head of eBay's mobile efforts, Steve Yankovich, hopes to make eBay the first place that people look on their phones when searching for a product to buy. "I want to replace Google as the de facto 'Where do I start,'" he said. Yankovich, who's been with eBay for less than a year-and-a-half, is hoping to bring the company's mobile offerings from behind the times to the cutting edge. Until the middle of last year, eBay users couldn't make a purchase from their mobile phones. They could bid on auctions, but if they won they had to pay later. There was no option to purchase non-auction items immediately, either. By the middle of last year, however, eBay users could buy items directly from a mobile eBay site or applications like the one for the iPhone. By the end of 2009, customers had bought US$600 million worth of products from their mobile phones, Yankovich... Detailt »» 
LG Electronics on Tuesday announced a new series of smartphones with next-generation dual-core processors, which should provide a big leap in performance while maintaining device battery life. LG's new Optimus line will include smartphones running on Nvidia's Tegra 2 dual-core chips, which will also allow handsets to play 1080p high-definition video, LG said in a statement. Most of today's smartphones come with single-core processors and are capable of playing only 720p resolution video. Beyond full HD support, dual-core processors could enable smartphones to run more demanding applications like videoconferencing. The Optimus smartphones will "debut" in the fourth quarter of this year, the company said in a statement. The company did not specify when the phones would be generally available for purchase. The new smartphones will come with two 1GHz processors. The Tegra 2 chip will provide double the Web browsing and up to five times faster gaming performance over single-core 1GHz... Detailt »» 
The Samsung Fascinate, which Verizon Wireless will start selling for $199 this week, is the underdog in an Android lineup dominated by HTC and Motorola. On Verizon, those manufacturers' Droid phones steal the show, benefiting from aggressive marketing and catchy branding. They also happen to be really good phones . How can Samsung's Fascinate, part of the Galaxy S smartphone line that's already launched on every other major carrier, keep up? In terms of hardware, the Fascinate is sort of a midway point between HTC's Droid Incredible and Motorola's Droid X. That's mostly because of the 4-inch screen, compared to 3.7 inches on the Incredible and 4.3 inches on the Droid X. The Fascinate also has 2 GB internal storage and 16 GB on MicroSD, which is more than the Droid Incredible's 8GB/2GB combination and less than the Droid X's 8GB/16GB. The Fascinate's 1500 mAh battery, while tough to compare in real-world terms, should be better than the Incredible and either on par with... Detailt »»
