Is Nokia Committing Retail Suicide?

Gizmodo
The Lumia 920, lauded and yearned for as the very savior of Windows Phone, goes on sale today for $100. It's a pretty sweet phone! Not quite what we hoped it'd be, but a solid handset. But is the lower price a problem rather than a selling point? More »

iPad Mini is fun but you may want to wait

msnbc.com: Technology & Science

I think the best way to review the iPad Mini is to pit it against competitors in a series of death matches. After all, come holiday time, you'll likely put your money down on just one tablet — or none.I think the best way to review the iPad Mini is to pit it against competitors in a series of death matches.

Lamborghini Aventador Roadster Likely to Debut in Geneva

Car Reviews - 2010 Car Reviews at CARandDRIVER.com - Car Buying ...

Lamborghini Aventdaor RoadsterThe upcoming Lamborghini Aventador Roadster is set to make its debut very soon. European sources confirm to us that a topless Aventador is set to be revealed in December before an in-the-metal unveiling at the Geneva auto show in March (although it’s possible that the auto show debut could be pushed to Shanghai in April).

When asked about the possibility of the convertible Aventador’s debut—first reported by Car magazine—Lamborghini representatives declined to comment. What Raging Bull representatives would comment on is that report’s speculation of a four-seat Aventador; according to the folks in Sant’Agata, there’s no such thing.

The Aventador Roadster is expected to be largely the same as the standard Aventador: lots of carbon fiber, same 691-hp V-12. The only difference—spoiler alert—will be its roof, which is widely believed to be of the folding-hardtop variety. So if you’ve got $450k set aside for a topless Aventador, your wait is nearly over.

In a new study, researchers show that exercisers can burn as many as 200 extra calories in as little as 2.5 minutes of concentrated effort a day -- as long as they intersperse longer periods of easy recovery in a practice known as sprint interval training.
