Do you remember the Nintendo Family Computer, or Famicon? Well, you might not -- it came to earth in 1983 and was Japan's version of the NES.
After a flood of leaks, Verizon's just officially announced its prepaid data plan for smartphones.
The Samsung Galaxy Tab certainly looks like it's going to be a pretty sweet little tablet, but man -- Samsung really needs to hire some better Korean-to-English translators.
So, you've been waiting for a Mophie Juice Pack for your iPhone 4? You're not alone. Well, we have word that it'll be available as soon as next week for $79.
