Search web search Home Singapore Asia Pacific World Business Entertainment Sports Technology US-TECH Summary Reuters - Tuesday, May 18 Send IM Story Print Apple's iPhone replaces BlackBerry for some bankers SINGAPORE/HONG KONG - British bank Standard Chartered is replacing the BlackBerry, currently its standard corporate communications device, with the iPhone, a move that could eventually result in thousands of bankers switching to the Apple <AAPL.O> device for business communication on the go. Standard Chartered <STAN.L><2888.HK> bankers in Asia told Reuters that the London-based lender was giving its corporate BlackBerry users the option of switching to the iPhone, with the company agreeing to continue to pay monthly billing for business-related telephone and data services. U.S. court won't hear Cablevision/FCC must-carry case WASHINGTON - The U.S. Supreme Court said on Monday that it would not hear an appeal by Cablevision Systems Corp <CVC.N> to the Federal Communications Commission's must-carry requirement that forces cable systems to carry programing of broadcast television stations. The high court in 1997 upheld the 1992 law that obligates cable television companies to carry local broadcast stations. But Cablevision said circumstances have since changed and the monopolistic nature of the cable industry has been replaced by vigorous competition. Top U.S. carriers plot faster gadgets, services NEW YORK - The next generation of high-speed Internet services, tablets, smartphones and other mobile gadgets could arrive faster than you would expect. The two biggest U.S. phone companies, AT&T Inc <T.N> and Verizon Wireless, are stepping up plans to speed up their networks and deliver advanced devices to consumers as early as this holiday season with partners such as Motorola Inc <MOT.N>, Samsung Electronics <005930.KS> and LG Electronics <066570.KS>. Indian company trains small army to meet 3D surge CANNES - India's Reliance MediaWorks, part of the Reliance ADA group, is training a small army of artists to meet the rise in demand for 3D films following the huge success of James Cameron's "Avatar" and other films. Films like "Avatar," with its record-shattering $2.7 billion global box office, "Alice in Wonderland" and "Clash of the Titans, have convinced studios to spend extra cash and add a third dimension to movies to boost box office earnings. China's Web "firewall" should be WTO issue: EU's Kroes SHANGHAI - China's Internet "firewall" is a trade barrier and needs to be tackled within the framework of the World Trade Organization, Neelie Kroes, vice-president of the European Commission, told reporters in Shanghai on Monday. Dutch-born Kroes, who is also in charge of Europe's digital agenda, said the firewall was a trade barrier as long as it blocked communication for Internet users, preventing the free flow of information. LG Display banks on e-reader growth SEOUL -The global electronic book market will grow almost 80 percent this year, aided by Apple's <AAPL.O> iPad, but devices with limited multimedia functions will remain a mainstream segment thanks to consumers seeking a serious reading experience, LG Display said on Monday. Shipments of electronic paper displays jumped five-fold last year to 5 million units, spurred by strong sales of e-readers such as Amazon's Kindle and Sony's <6758.T> Sony Reader, according to DisplaySearch. Microsoft settles with VirnetX, to pay $200 million NEW YORK - Microsoft Corp <MSFT.O> will pay $200 million to VirnetX Holding Corp <VHC.A> and obtain a patent license to settle litigation accusing it of infringing two patents for communicating over the Internet. Shares of VirnetX rose as much as 14.6 percent. AU sees LCD shortage, eyes China deals HSINCHU, Taiwan May 17 - AU Optronics Corp <2409.TW>, Taiwan's No. 2 LCD maker, said an LCD panel shortage is likely to last into the second half of this year on robust demand for PCs and TVs, even though fears linger about a weak euro. New laptops and thinner TV models with power-saving LED backlights are selling well worldwide, and AU's <AUO.N> early investment in the new technology helps it add value, Chairman K.Y. Lee said on Monday in an interview as part of the Reuters Global Technology Summit. "I do" goes high-tech with Japan robot priest TOKYO - The groom looked dashing, his bride resplendent in white, but all eyes in this Japanese wedding were on the priest, a four-foot tall robot with colorful, flashing eyes called i-Fairy. The robot is usually used in museum and exhibitions to direct visitors, but with the help of a flower headpiece, and a new programme, it pronounced Satoko Inoue and Tomohiro Shibata man and wife at a Sunday ceremony. Google says mistakenly got wireless data SAN FRANCISCO - Google Inc <GOOG.O> said its fleet of cars responsible for photographing streets around the world have for several years accidentally collected personal information -- which a security expert said could include email messages and passwords -- sent by consumers over wireless networks. The company said on Friday that it is currently reaching out to regulators in the relevant countries, which include the United States, Germany, France, Brazil and Hong Kong in China, about how to dispose of the data, which Google said it never used.
