Financial Times: US antitrust regulators plan to investigate Apple’s mobile advertising practices
Posted on June 10, 2010 | No CommentsThere's not a lot of details on this at the moment, but the Financial Times is reporting that US antitrust regulators plan to investigate Apple's mobile advertising practices to see whether they unfairly restrict rivals like Google and Microsoft. As you'll recall, Apple recently revised its rules on outside advertisers and, specifically, their ability to collect analytics on ads for the iPhone, iPad and iPod touch, effectively cutting out Google's AdMob in the process -- something the company's CEO has publicly complained about. What's next? That's still not certain -- the Financial Times says that while US regulators have taken an interest, it's still not clear whether the FTC or the Department of Justice will handle the investigation going forward.Financial Times: US antitrust regulators plan to investigate Apple's mobile advertising practices originally appeared on Engadget on Thu, 10 Jun 2010 12:23:00 EST.

How to stick a USB charger into your Camry
Posted on June 4, 2010 | No CommentsInstructables has an interesting instruction set for adding a USB port to your car’s dashboard, thereby avoiding the “wall wart” that comes with most USB-charging devices for the car. Obviously you’re only sticking an old USB charger into the dashboard and cutting a hole for the port, but it definitely adds a touch of class [...] -
Plant face mask takes cutting down on your carbon footprint to the extreme
Posted on April 26, 2010 | No Comments
If the volcano's in Iceland keep pumping out ash, we may all need to start wearing face masks to protect our delicate lung tissues. Of course, standard fabric or paper masks aren't enough for some people, as physical filtration may not be enough in some cases. So you have this concept face mask from designer Robert Ortega.

Greenpeace will be at CES cutting a promo on anti-green companies
Posted on December 18, 2009 | No CommentsI've inexplicably become CrunchGear's go-to green writer. If there's a “green” tech story out there, I'm on the scene. Why, I don't know, especially because my attitude toward the environment is, “Meh, I'm lucky if I hit 70 years old, what do I care?” Don't tell that to Greenpeace though. The activists made famous by that Seinfeld episode will be at next month's CES (as will all of your friendly neighborhood CrunchGear writers) to give the lowdown on what companies are green and what companies are a bunch of jerks.

What are the odds the Sony Daily e-book reader will be available before Christmas?
Posted on November 18, 2009 | No CommentsI'm in charge of writing the e-book gift guide, but it's sorta hard to recommend items that haven't been released yet. That IREX reader, the nook, and the Sony Daily Edition Reader are all missing in action. Thanks, guys. Today we take a minute to ask, “Where's the Sony Daily?”

Droid experiencing external speaker problems, could be a software issue?
Posted on November 15, 2009 | No CommentsFiled under: Handsets, Motorola, Android
It's no reason to panic just yet, but apparently a good amount of people are having trouble with the external speaker on their Motorola Droid cutting out for no reason. It seems to be software-related, and sometimes a reboot fixes it temporarily, but it's a scary problem for people relying on the handset as an alarm clock (or, you know, to receive calls), since you never know when it will strike next. For its part it seems that Motorola is replacing handsets that have the issue, though that's no guarantee of escape from the clutches of silence. Let's hope Motorola updates us with a software patch or some other serious solution soon -- people need to hear that robotic "Droooiiid" alert sound -- and meanwhile let us know if you've been seeing a similar issue.

Pachter declares PS3 price cut by October 1
Posted on July 13, 2009 | No Comments
I hate to do it, but I have to. Sorry, kids.
Ahead of the June NPD numbers that will be released on Thursday, Wedbush Morgan analyst Michael Pachter stated today that US sales of the Wii, Xbox 360 and PS3 have declined 43 percent from June of last year to June 2009. He predicts that Nintendo moved 350,000 Wiis while Sony sold 165,000 PS3s and Microsoft came up shy of a quarter million with 225,000.
