“Obama has reinvented the state in more ways than you can imagine.

They have gone from decrying his willingness to remove the public option from his health care plan to worrying that, in the wake of Democrat Martha Coakley’s defeat in Massachusetts, he won’t get any plan through Congress. On other subjects, too, from Afghanistan to Wall Street, Obama has thoroughly let down his party’s left flank.

“SEGA has announced Sonic 4: Episode I. It is, as GameSpot reports, a 2D downloadable game with 3D visuals.
The announcement is part of the Project Needlemouse build up SEGA has been pushing since last September 2009. “Needlemouse” refers to Sonic’s codename when the game that would become Sonic The Hedgehog was initially being pitched.
While teasing this Project Needlemouse project, SEGA has stated that the game is a return to Sonic’s 2D roots and that the blue hedgehog will be the only playable character.
The game will pick up after Sonic & Knucles, but, as “Episode I” indicates, this is a new story arc.”

“Mozilla announced last week the availability of Firefox for Maemo 1.0, the first official release of Firefox Mobile for Nokia’s Linux-based smartphone operating system. It offers adequate browsing performance, support for add-ons, and a finger-friendly user interface that includes popular Firefox features like the AwesomeBar.
This Firefox variant is based on the Fennec project, which was originally launched in 2007 with the aim of bringing the full Firefox browsing experience to modern handheld devices. In the time that has transpired since the inception of the project, advancements in mobile computing hardware have significantly boosted the performance of smartphones. That factor, coupled with Mozilla’s aggressive optimization efforts, have made it possible for Firefox to become a mobile browser.”

“When Steve Jobs told the audience at Apple’s iPad launch in San Francisco that only his company could produce such a tablet computer, it wasn’t mere hyperbole. And when he added that his company was now bigger, in revenue terms, than Nokia, Samsung and Sony, he gave a glimpse of Apple’s aim to dominate every sort of mobile device, from smartphones to laptops. Little wonder, with those ambitions, that Barclays Capital immediately suggested the iPad would raise Apple’s share price by 10pc….”
