Pandora Stock Surges in its IPO

Posted by PersonalTech on June 15th, 2011

Investors reveled in the chance to buy up shares of Pandora on Wednesday, the latest in what is turning out to be a slew of initial public offerings for unprofitable tech companies.

A prototype flexible smartphone made of electronic paper has been created by Canadian researchers.

The PaperPhone can do all the things bulkier smartphones can do such as make and take calls, send messages, play music or display e-books.

The gadget triggers different functions and features when bent, folded and flexed at its corners or sides.

Nintendo Wii moves toward retirement

Posted by PersonalTech on April 25th, 2011

The Wii, once the cutting edge of video game technology, is headed the way of the Atari 2600 and the Sega Genesis.

Nintendo Co. Ltd. said Monday that it plans to replace the Wii with a new system in 2012. The video game maker said it will "show a playable model of the new system" at the E3 Expo in Los Angeles from June 7 to 9.

With the Nintendo 3DS, the Japanese video game company is betting that it can once again nudge mass entertainment in a new direction, just as it did nearly five years ago when it launched the Wii with its innovative motion-based controller.

This time, though, the competition from other devices is tougher.

As mobile data usage skyrockets, wireless companies are spending billions each year to maximize capacity, and consumers end up footing the cost in the form of higher cell phone bills.

But a cube that fits in the palm of your hand could help solve that problem.

NEW YORK (CNNMoney) -- Internet radio site Pandora filed late Friday to raise up to $100 million in an initial public offering.

The stock price for Activision Blizzard hit a sour note Thursday, the day after the video game company said it was abandoning "Guitar Hero" and focusing on battle games such as "Call of Duty."
