  • Sony Ericsson rearing a ‘Julie’ Windows Phone 7 slider in the lab?

    Sony Ericsson rearing a ‘Julie’ Windows Phone 7 slider in the lab?

    Our latest Windows Phone 7 gossip stems from the juicy Chinese grapevine. Rumor has it that Sony Ericsson's now testing a WP7 device -- possibly a first for the company -- codenamed "Julie," which sports a sliding QWERTY keyboard and a capacitive multitouch screen about the size of the X10's. Ah, this sure brings back touching memories of the first two WinMo Xperia sliders. Apart from the processor being clocked at 1GHz or above, little else is known about this unborn baby -- no dates, no photos ('tis our mockup on the right), but we won't question this tipster who also brought us SE's "Shakira" and the peculiar 5.5-inch Android device. Anyway, given SE's track record, it'll probably take six more months of gestation before Julie pops out.

This all stems from an Indian complaint that Chinese cyberattackers had attacked computers belonging to the country's National Security Advisor.

    What happens when artificial intelligence gets too advanced for its own good?

    Imagine you're sitting at the dining table reading the latest Wrestling Observer, as you do from time to time. Nothing too crazy, just minding your own business. Then, suddenly—it's always suddenly—the microwave hops off the counter, wielding a knife, and comes charging after you. Oh, dear!
