Search web search Home Singapore Asia Pacific World Business Entertainment Sports Technology US-TECH Summary Reuters - Friday, April 9 Send IM Story Print Apple's iPad takes video gaming seriously RALEIGH, North Carolina - Apple's iPad tablet computer hasn't been out a week yet but there are already over 830 video games that have been developed to suit the large format, high definition, multi-touch screen. That number doesn't even include the nearly 25,000 iPod Touch and iPhone games that will also play on Apple's <AAPL.O> latest gadget which is a mix between a smartphone and a laptop but also clearly aims to cater for the growing numbers of gamers. Yahoo technology chief to step down SAN FRANCISCO - Yahoo Inc's <YHOO.O> chief technology officer and head of products is stepping down, the company said on Thursday. Ari Balogh is leaving for personal reasons and will remain with the company until June 3, Yahoo said in an emailed statement. A replacement is expected to be named in the coming weeks, the company said. Apple's iPad sets strong sales pace, iAds unveiled CUPERTINO, Calif - Apple Inc <AAPL.O> CEO Steve Jobs on Thursday revealed stronger-than-expected sales of 450,000 for the iPad since its much-hyped debut, and touted a phone operating system with a new advertising platform to compete with rival Google Inc's. <GOOG.O> Analysts expect sales of 1 million units or more for the device -- touted as a new class of gadget that will bridge laptops and smartphones -- in the current quarter ending June, and roughly 5 million in 2010, though estimates vary widely. Mexico may cut millions of cellphones to fight crime MEXICO CITY - Tens of millions of Mexicans could find their cellphones disconnected this weekend if the government goes ahead with a new law meant to fight crime by forcing people to register their identities. Advertisements on government radio and television have been urging Mexicans for weeks to register their cellphones by sending their personal details as a text message, but on Thursday 30 million lines remained unregistered as the Saturday deadline neared. 3D TV to face global test in soccer World Cup LONDON - Hundreds of thousands of soccer fans are likely to get their first taste of live 3D viewing during this year's World Cup, the vast majority of them in cinemas rather than at home, according to football body FIFA. Together with partner Sony <6758.T>, FIFA plans to supply 25 World Cup matches in the immersive 3D technology made popular in cinemas by blockbuster movie Avatar and expected to spread to living rooms around the world this year. FCC issues broadband agenda despite court loss WASHINGTON - The head of the Federal Communications Commission vowed to press ahead with a broadband expansion plan despite a court ruling this week that undermined the agency's authority to manage networks. FCC Chairman Julius Genachowski said on Thursday that the appeals court ruling was narrowly cast and he issued a timetable for public comment and rulemaking on broadband goals ranging from reallocating airwaves to expanding Internet access for rural and low-income households. Wi-Lan sues Apple, HP, others on Bluetooth patent NEW YORK - Wi-Lan Inc <WIN.TO>, the Canadian technology licensing company, has filed a lawsuit accusing 19 computer and phone companies of infringing a patent by selling laptops and cellular handsets enabled with Bluetooth technology. Among the defendants are some of the world's best-known technology providers, including Apple Inc <AAPL.O>, Dell Inc <DELL.O>, Hewlett-Packard Co <HPQ.N> and Intel Corp <INTC.O>. Nokia eyes China boost for struggling music service BEIJING/HELSINKI - Nokia <NOK1V.HE> will offer free music with its mobile phones in China, as it looks to emerging markets to boost the download service that is struggling to compete with Apple Inc's <AAPL.O> popular iTunes. The world's top cellphone maker will offer free music downloads from major labels and a number of independents at the Chinese launch for its Comes with Music service, which is tailored for downloads to cellphones and PCs. LinkedIn expands board with former search engine CEO SAN FRANCISCO - LinkedIn has added the former chief executive of Ask.com to its board of directors, the company planned to announce on Thursday, representing the first independent director in the fast-growing social networking company's boardroom. Skip Battle, 66, joined the LinkedIn board a few weeks ago, a LinkedIn spokeswoman said, expanding the company's board to five members. Battle also sits on the boards of several publicly listed Internet companies, including Netflix Inc <NFLX.O>, Expedia Inc <EXPE.O> and OpenTable Inc <OPEN.O> and was CEO of Ask.com, now owned by IAC/InterActiveCorp <IACI.O>, between 2001 and 2005. Japan's video game visionary: the console is dying TOKYO - Hideo Kojima, one of the world's most famous video game creators, sees a future for digital entertainment outside the box -- outside any box. Kojima, whose "Metal Gear Solid" games have sold more than 27 million copies, says the future of video gaming is on networks that will free players from consoles supplied by the likes of his long-time partner Sony Corp <6758.T>.
