The Perils of Cloud Computing
What would happen if your future arrived too early? If you got the keys to your first car when you were eight? Landed your first big management job at 15?

Mothers, lock up your gamers. The PlayStation phone has arrived.
And while it’s a bit on the chubby side, we think that, for Sony Ericsson’s Xperia Play, big is beautiful.

Burning Question: Why Do DVDs Still Have Region Codes?
While vacationing in France, you find a DVD of Ishtar. Score! (It’s never been released on DVD in the US). But when you get home, you discover that you’ve purchased a Region 2 disc, which, in your Region 1 player, is as useful as a coaster. This raises two questions: Why do you want to watch Ishtar?
