Verizon Launches Low-Key Droid Event in Times Square, With Big Hopes
eWEEK Technology News
Verizon tried a Times Square promotion for its Droid smartphone on Nov. 6, the same day as the devices release. Despite the small number of people who turned out for the event, Verizon and Google are hoping that the Android-powered smartphone will attract massive amounts of customers, and justify pre-release advertising that positioned the Droid as a robust competitor to Apple's iPhone. Some early reviews seemed to put both iPhone and Droid on relatively even ground in the capabilities category. - Verizon must have booked its Times Square promotion of the Droid
smartphone well before the Yankees won the World Series, or they might have
chosen a different venue: the majority of people crowding into arguably the
worlds most famous intersection were dressed in baseball uniforms, and there to

Cisco Security System Shuts Out Third-Party Tools
Slashdot
alphadogg writes "Cisco has finally publicly acknowledged it won't add support for new third-party devices to its security information and event monitoring appliance, ending months of speculation about the future of its Monitoring, Analysis and Response System. Some claim it's the beginning of the end for MARS as a multi-vendor SIEM device. 'MARS customers can expect non-Cisco network device data and signature updates to continue for currently supported third-party systems, but no new third-party devices will be added,' Cisco declared in a statement, noting that 'Cisco MARS continues to focus on supporting Cisco devices for threat identification and mitigation.' Cisco's SIEM competitors this week have eagerly grabbed at the topic of Cisco MARS freezing third-party support because of a Gartner research memo published Oct. 29 in which analyst Mark Nicolett stated, 'Cisco has quietly begun informing its customers of a decision to freeze support for most non-Cisco event sources with its [MARS].'"

Week in gaming: Modern Warfare 2 PC, Torchlight, Dragon Age
ars technica
This week we take a look at just how much content and choice is missing from the PC version of Modern Warfare 2, and the news is not good for fans of the PC as a gaming platform. We also take a look at how to score some cheap consoles this weekend, why you should be playing Torchlight, and what one Marine thinks about the controversial content of Modern Warfare 2.
It was a busy week in gaming, so let's take a look at what people were talking about.

NH Supreme Court Hears Case On Protections For Anonymous Sources Online
Slashdot
fulldecent writes "The New Hampshire Supreme Court heard oral arguments Wednesday in a lawsuit that calls into question the legal protections available to independent Web sites that cover news. The case involves mortgage lender Implode-Explode, a Las Vegas-based site launched in 2007 that publishes stories about the meltdown of the mortgage industry. Associate Justice Carol Ann Conboy pressed the point with [defense lawyer Jeremy Eggleton], questioning, 'Can anyone who posts a blog be considered a reporter,' for the purposes of claiming protection of anonymous sources? Eggleton answered yes, within limits: 'The test is whether the person has an intention to gather, analyze and disseminate.'"

Antimatter In Lightning
Slashdot
AMESN writes "The Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope, launched last year, detects gamma rays from light years away, but recently it detected gamma rays from lightning on Earth. And the energy of the gamma rays is specific to the decay of positrons, which are the antimatter flavor of electrons. Finding antimatter in lightning surprised researchers and suggests the electric field of the lightning somehow got reversed."

Google Dashboard Provides Too Much Info And Yet Not Enough
eWEEK Technology News
News Analysis: Google again finds itself in a no-win situation, this time with Google Dashboard. Some claim Google collects too much data in Dashboard and others say it doesn't provide enough. Dashboard summarizes the data from the Web services associated with a user's account. Dashboard, which can be found here, or under the Personal Setting section under My Account, will list how many Gmail conversations we have going, how many Google Docs we have, Google Calendar appointments, and even Web history if we've enabled it. But it does not include detail Google collects on us from its server logs, cookies and ads. -
News Analysis: With Google Dashboard, Google again finds
itself in a no-win situation. In a utopian world, the search engine would be
roundly praised for providing a window it's the data users generate from using Google applications.
Yet whenever Google puts a foot forward, adverti...

Best Buy to Install Google Mobile App, But Not For Droid, IPhone
eWEEK Technology News
Beginning Nov. 9, sales associates for Best Buy Mobile will install Google Mobile App on all BlackBerry, Microsoft Windows Mobile, or Nokia S60 smartphones through the Walk Out Working program, a free in-store smartphone setup. The deal makes Best Buy the first retailer in the U.S. to distribute Google Mobile App on smartphones sold in store. However, Best Buy won't install Google Mobile App on the Motorola Droid or HTC Eris because it isn't available on Android. Google Mobile App support is missing in action on the iPhone, too. -
Google Nov. 5 partnered with Best Buy to let the retailer
install Google Mobile applications on smartphones that it sells to consumers
right in the store.

Radar Beats GPS In Court — Or Does It?
Slashdot
TechnologyResource writes "More than two years ago in California, a police officer wrote Shaun Malone a ticket for going 62mph in a 45-mph zone. Malone was ordered to pay a $190 fine, but his parents appealed the decision, saying data from a GPS tracking system they installed in his car to monitor his driving proved he was not speeding. What ensued was the longest court battle over a speeding ticket in Sonoma county history. The case also represented the first time anyone locally had tried to beat a ticket using GPS. The teen's GPS pegged the car at 45 mph in virtually the same location. At issue was the distance from the stoplight — site of the first GPS 'ping' that showed Malone stopped — to the second ping 30 seconds later, when he was going 45 mph. Last week, Commissioner Carla Bonilla ruled the GPS data confirmed the prosecution's contention that Malone had to have exceeded the speed limit and would have to pay the $190 fine. 'This case ensures that other law enforcement agencies throughout the state aren't going to have to fight a case like this where GPS is used to cast doubt on radar,' said Sgt. Ken Savano, who oversees the traffic division. However, Commissioner Bonilla noted the accuracy of the GPS system was not challenged by either side in the dispute, but rather they had different interpretations of the data. Bonilla ruled the GPS data confirmed the prosecution's contention that Malone had to have exceeded the speed limit."
