60 | Google is reportedly trying to make a deal that would enable the company to provide free international roaming for mobile users. They're talking with a company called Hutchison Whampoa, which owns the mobile operator Three, to provide the service to Americans traveling in the UK, Ireland, Italy and other countries. The expert assumption is that Google wants to pressure other carriers to follow suit and drive down the cost of mobile connectivity. * * * | http://www.telegraph.co.uk/finance/11516189/Google-in-talks-with-mobile-operators-for-cheap-overseas-calls.html | ||||

64 | The Apple Watch hit a big snag in the wristwatch capital of the world. The hit by patent issue: The Swiss trade magazine Montres & Joaillerie reported on its website that a patent issue will prevent Apple from legally selling the Apple Watch in Switzerland until at least the end of the year when the patent is set to expire. Ironically, the patent isn't about watches, but about use of either the word Apple or about an image of an Apple, such as the company's logo. The Apple Watch will ship elsewhere April 24. * * * | http://www.reuters.com/article/2015/04/04/us-applewatch-swiss-idUSKBN0MV0AJ20150404 | ||||

88 | BuzzFeed is reporting that Apple's next generation Apple TV, which is expected this year, will not support 4K resolution video. According to one source, Apple considers 4K technology to be "still in its infancy." * * * | |||||
89 | Which is weird, because rumors are circulating that Apple will unveil an updated iMac with an 8K display. That's a resolution of seventy-six eighty by forty three twenty. The rumor was started by an LG documented posted last week that says Apple is working on what they're calling the "iMac 8k." The reason it's a rumor is the information could be a typo or some other kind of error. * * * | http://lgdnewsroom.com/products-solutions/tv/5725 | http://appleinsider.com/articles/15/04/06/apple-to-release-super-high-resolution-imac-8k-later-this-year-display-partner-lg-says | |||

The lawsuit originally accused Google of harming smartphone buyers by installing Google's applications the default apps on Android.

129 | CalTech researchers have developed a camera chip that could turn smartphones into 3D scanners. The idea is to use smartphones to capture objects in 3 dimensions, and have that information sent to a 3D printer to be copied. The technology works by using an array of tiny light detection and ranging laser beam scanners. * * * | http://www.computerworld.com/article/2906119/camera-chip-could-turn-phones-into-3d-scanners.html | ||||
