Connecticut asks Google for info in privacy flap WASHINGTON - Connecticut's attorney general, who is leading a 37-state probe of Google Inc's<GOOG.O> collection of data from private Wi-Fi networks, asked the Internet search leader on Wednesday if it had tested the software before using it.

Apple impresses, but margin outlook limits rally SAN FRANCISCO - Wall Street analysts boosted their price targets on Apple Inc <AAPL.O> after it posted robust quarterly results, but the company's conservative margin forecast limited gains in the stock on Wednesday.

Nigeria telecoms firms sign up to new broadband cable LAGOS - Three telecoms firms have subscribed to a new undersea cable linking Nigeria and West Africa to Europe, paving the way for a transformation in internet access in Africa's fastest-growing telecoms market.

Lenovo plans Android tablet PC in growth push HONG KONG - Lenovo Group <0992.HK>, the world's No.4 PC brand, said it will roll out its own tablet PC, becoming the latest technology company to jump on the bandwagon for computers styled after Apple Inc's <AAPL.O> popular iPad.
