Though it’s pretty much set that Verizon Wireless will announce an iPhone on Tuesday, January 11, we still don’t know much about the long-awaited device.

Nook Color meet Ubuntu, Ubuntu meet Nook Color
Posted in: Android, e reader, e-book, e-books, e-readers, hack, homebrew, Linux, mod, nook, Today's Chili, ubuntu
Although you won’t hear this through official channels, Barnes and Noble’s Nook has been plenty of fun for hacksters. And what spells fun better than U-b-u-n-t-u? Certainly nothing that we can mention in mixed company, that’s for sure! If you pop over to the always lively XDA Developers Forum, you’ll see a crazy little post wherein the author took inspiration from a Nexus One hack and decided to port Ubuntu to the Nook Color. And by jove, it looks like it’s worked… even if it is by accounts “a little laggy” and not without errors. Please feel free to hit the source link if you’d like to take in the details on what made this work… and to keep abreast of further developments, to boot.

CES 2011: The Best of Our Coverage
Posted in: Today's Chili
Well, another CES is in the books. It was a long, fun show. Attendance was back up to pre-recession levels, according to numbers released by the Consumer Electronics Association, and there were gadgets aplenty.
We had time to check out just about every product on the showroom floor, attended press conferences and keynotes, and interview a broad spectrum of folks, including Ludacris, T-Pain, and the CTO of One Laptop Per Child.
For those who weren’t able to follow our stories all week, we’ve compiled a list of our best coverage, after the jump.

Library of Congress receives 200,000 vintage master recordings from Universal, will stream them online
Posted in: audio, Music, sound, Today's Chili
The US Library of Congress hasn’t been shy about embracing the modern age of digital media, though in this case it’s having to deal with some decidedly lower-fi data storage. Universal Music Group has announced it’s donating over 200,000 master recordings of early 20th century music to the Library, which will be cataloged and digitized — for future safekeeping and in order to be streamed online starting in the spring. It doesn’t seem, however, that the intellectual property rights will be passing with these recordings, as the press release states this agreement continues the Library’s “unprecedented authority to stream commercially owned sound recordings online.” Either way, it’s good to know that the original copies of works by the likes of Louis Armstrong, Billy Holiday and Ella Fitzgerald will reside in the hands of an organization dedicated to their preservation. Full press release follows after the break.

There’s a lot of buzz about Mirasol’s reflective color display technology. But the company has yet to announce an actual product and some say we might not see one until next year.

Gearlog’s Top Gadget of CES 2011
Posted in: Today's Chili
It was a long week. Long but fulfilling, full of those sort of days where you fall asleep the moment your head hits the pillow. We walked the entire show floor once again this year, in search of the coolest, most cutting edge, and most life changing gadgets–and we saw plenty. We saw phones and laptops and music players and cameras–and so, so many tablets.
Honestly, it was tough to narrow the list down to a single product in such a big show so jam-packed with awesome technology. But somehow we managed.

Cisco’s Cius tablet gets the Verizon LTE treatment
Posted in: 4G, cisco, lte, Today's Chili, verizon, Verizon Wireless, VerizonWireless
It looks like Verizon’s gone and added yet another device — make that two — to their 4G LTE network. The company announced Thursday that it will offer the business-savvy Cius tablet on LTE starting this March, and will also offer LTE interfaces for Cisco’s second generation Integrated Service Router. Verizon says it’s got about one-third of the US covered with LTE, which offers downstream speeds between 5Mbps and 12Mbps, and will have the other two-thrids blanketed by 2012. If you’re lucky enough to live in that first one-third, the Cius tablet, which sports a 7-inch diagonal touchscreen and weighs about 1.15lbs, could become your preferred form of business communication — it offers HD video streaming, real-time video, and multi-party conferencing. Cius will also have 3G capability for those unfortunate souls operating outside of the LTE sphere. Verizon isn’t ready to settle on a data plan for the tablet, as its main functions have potential to eat up a ton of bandwidth, but they’re pretty sure employers will be the ones footing the bill.
