HP found the low end of the tablet pricing scale with its $99 TouchPad. Now it appears HTC, with its $700, AT&T 4G LTE-ready Android Jetstream tablet, is trying to see just how much you'll pay for a non-Apple tablet. (Does it come with a set of steak knives?)

Monday, September 05 With all the hot dogs and beer, it's easy to forget the labor part of Labor Day. President Grover Cleveland instituted this work-free Monday in 1894, choosing the date to both recognize the Central Labor Union's labor day and avoid associating the holiday with May 1, the labor day celebrated by the International Workers of the World and marked by the 1886 Haymarket riots

Here's a brief recap of a few of the more creative start-ups (and hair styles) from last evenings Demo Day at General Assembly. Matt Brimmer, co-founder of General Assembly , the location of last night's 500 Startups Demo Day in New York, couldn't announce how many people showed up for the event. Or not that he couldn't, but that he wouldn't—Brimmer didn't want to get in trouble with the landlord for clearly exceeding the office's maximum capacity

A new paradigm in quantum information processing has been demonstrated by physicists at UC Santa Barbara. Their results are published in this week's issue of Science Express online.

It sounds like the beginning of a bad joke, but its not.

The latest batch of leaked State Department cables from WikiLeaks reveals the U.S. government's deep interest in how tech giants like Apple and Oracle perform overseas.

GolfChannel: Whatever Phil Mickelson’s motivations, having the game’s second-largest draw join a growing list of long-putter converts only promises to fuel an already combustible debate.

The QR code is an acquired taste. But just as the tech is primed to be overtaken, America is going nuts for all things QR.

An international team of scientists has developed a novel X-ray technique for imaging atomic displacements in materials with unprecedented accuracy. They have applied their technique to determine how a recently discovered class of exotic materials – multiferroics – can be simultaneously both magnetically and electrically ordered.

(PhysOrg.com) -- The physicists of the University of Innsbruck and the Institute for Quantum Optics and Quantum Information (IQOQI) in Innsbruck have come considerably closer to their goal to investigate complex phenomena in a model system: They have realized a digital, and therefore, universal quantum simulator in their laboratory, which can, in principle, simulate any physical system efficiently. Their work has been published in the online issue of the journal Science.

Exploiting a novel technique called phase discontinuity, researchers at the Harvard School of Engineering and Applied Sciences (SEAS) have induced light rays to behave in a way that defies the centuries-old laws of reflection and refraction.

In things thick and thin: Cornell physicists explain how fluids – such as paint or paste - behave by observing how micron-sized suspended particles dance in real time. Using high-speed microscopy, the scientists unveil how these particles are responding to fluid flows from shear – a specific way of stirring.

After a major earthquake or flood, people need help but can be hard to find. A new technique--using tracking data from phones to figure out where people have fled to--could make it easier to get them help.
