LiveLine combines military grade GPS receivers, high-powered radios, and gyroscopically stabilized cameras to triangulate the distance between competitors. Once this data is transmitted to the ground, operators can add metrics like wind speed, nautical speed, placement in the race, waypoints, and even what country the boat represents, all in real time.

We live in a golden age of yacht-related technologies, my friends.

I’m just not sure how much more of Android winning Apple can take.

And doesn’t look like a laptop from any other company you might have heard of. Nope. Not at all.

Next meeting between Sony and Intel: “You idiots! We said ‘MacBook Air’ not ‘MacBook Pro’!”

But in a month developers will ship for Android first.

God, I can’t wait for June.

So, RIM is the crazy one and Samsung is the sexist one. OK, I think I’ve got it now.

Update: Mitchell Rosen informs me that Amy Childs is a notoriously stupid British reality TV star. (Oxymoron? You be the judge.) So, apparently they’re not mocking all women, just this one who everyone agrees is actually stupid.

I guess I’ll have to wait two years for the show to be remade in the U.S. to get the joke.

From the “Good luck with that” files:

Research in Motion unveiled Tuesday morning the new BlackBerry 10 phone and operating system that the company hopes will be its salvation, in a form that looked quite rough around the edges. Among the features missing on the prototype phones given to software developers was the ability to actually make phone calls or access wireless networks.

You can make your own joke about RIM spending their money on telling iPhone owners to “wake up”. Or you can just wait for it to write itself. That’s what I do.
