As with Doom 3, you find yourself roaming the halls of a research facility, teleporting to hell itself, and eventually trying to escape from Mars in one piece. Your only weapons are a series of progressively more powerful guns and, at one point, a chainsaw,…

Apple has begun airing two new TV advertisements for the iPhone 3GS. Shot with a black phone on a white background, both ads are similar in execution to the recent “there’s an app for that” series of advertisements. One focuses on the new copy & paste feature—although the ad never specifies that the feature is available on older iPhone 3.0-ready devices as well—and shows examples of copying a phone number for SMS,…

It supports 720×480 resolution—enough for DVD transfers—and brightness, color, and contrast adjustments, as well as stereo audio input. You can set…

And that’s what they’d get. Customers still need to make an ~$50-$65 appointment with an audiologist to have molds of their ears made, and after those molds have been sent to Ultimate Ears, the result will be a set of clear hard plastic casings that are shaped to their ears and no others. UE 4 Pro’s shells are cosmetically and physically near-identical to the company’s highest-end UE-10 and UE-11 models, which is to say that…

Apple is among a large group of cell phone manufacturers that have signed a new European Commission agreement aimed at standardizing all smartphone chargers starting next year. “People will not have to throw away their charger whenever they buy a new phone,” said EU Industry Commissioner Guenter Verheugen, suggesting that unwanted phone accessories account for thousands of tons of waste in Europe each year. The new chargers will use the…

A number of iPhone 3GS owners have complained that the handset becomes overly hot, with at least one user reporting a discoloration of the white plastic back. Photos posted to the French site Nowhere Else (Translated Link) show a 16GB white iPhone 3GS unit with reddish/pink discolorations running vertically down the back on either side of the Apple logo; the user claims these appeared after the phone got “very hot” while testing out…
