<description><![CDATA[Apple appears to be a step closer to putting together a cloud-music service with the licensing blessing of the major record labels.Following CNET's previous reports that Warner Music Group and EMI Music had signed on with Apple's rumored plans to store customers' music files on its servers, Bloomberg is reporting that Sony Music has added its name to the play list. The addition of Sony, which lists Avril Lavigne, Britney Spears, and Foo Fighters among its featured recording artists, would leave only Universal Music Group as the lone holdout, but sources tell CNET that the recording industry's largest label is close to a deal with Apple.Apple and Sony Music representatives did not immediately respond to a request for comment. Licensing agreements with all four major labels will allow Apple to launch a fully licensed cloud-music service to rival unlicensed offerings of rivals Amazon and Google. Even though Google had been negotiating to obtain licenses from the four largest record companies for more than a year, the test version launched earlier this month without licensing agreements in place. Amazon employed the same strategy when it launched its cloud-music service in March.For more than a year, all the talk about cloud music--the term used to describe third-party computing--was about Google and Apple. Then Amazon beat both companies by unveiling a digital music locker service that allows users to store songs on Amazon's servers and then listen to their collections via computers with a Web browser or Android devices.While the music labels have insisted that most cloud music features would require licenses, they didn't do much publicly to discourage Amazon or Google from rolling out with their services. Both services appear to have been carefully structured to avoid violating any copyrights: neither made additional copies of songs nor employed a process known as &quot;scan and match,&quot; in which the companies scan users' hard drives then stream back to users a company-created copy.However, the licensing agreements may let Apple employ the &quot;scan and match&quot; approach, allowing users to avoid the tedious and time-consuming process of uploading their music libraries to Apple's servers. The music service Lala, which Apple acquired in December 2009, made this process famous.Meanwhile, an Apple patent application released this morning offers clues to features Apple might add to iTunes and iOS to make entire music libraries take up less space on mobile devices with limited storage. The application details a system in which music clips from a user's library are stored locally on a device. When combined with an infrastructure that can fetch the rest of a song once it starts being played, the system would provide users with a seamless music listening experience of their entire library, even without having it on the device. <br/><br/>0 Vote(s) ]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[Motorola&amp;39's Xoom(Credit:Motorola)Consumers who buy Motorola's new Xoom tablet when it hits stores today will have to send theirtablets back to Motorola if they want to upgrade to 4G LTE, according to Verizon Wireless.Support information posted on Verizon's site details the steps a Xoom owner must go through to make the leap from the current 3G connectivity to 4G when that option becomes available in the second quarter.Here are the steps: after backing up files and personal data on the tablet to a PC, users are encouraged to either encrypt that information or perform a factory reset to bring the Xoom back to its initial state.Shipping the Xoom back to Motorola for its 4G retrofit is free--users will receive a prepaid FedEx envelope and shipping material in which to place the tablet. After that, Xoom owners will be without their tablets for about six business days, according to Verizon.Once the newly 4G-outfitted Xoom is returned to its owner, Verizon is promising speeds of 5 to 12 megabits per second (Mbps) on the downlink and 2Mbps to 5Mbps on the uplink. The carrier said that no changes will be required to the data plan itself.The 4G upgrade option will be available around 90 days after today's launch of the Xoom, according to Verizon. Interested Xoom owners can enter their e-mail addresses at Verizon's Xoom 4G upgrade page to receive a notice when the option becomes available.In an e-mail to CNET, Verizon spokeswoman Brenda Raney confirmed that the Xoom will require a hardware change to set up the 4G connectivity. She added that other options besides mailing the tablet to Motorola are being discussed and will be announced closer to when the update becomes available.Debuting today, the Xoom is being sold through Verizon for $599.99 with a two-year contract or for $799.99 without a contract. The 3G data plan will cost $20 a month for 1GB of data. Customers who want to stick with just Wi-Fi will still need to buy into the data plan for one month in order to activate the wireless option.The first tablet to sport Google's new Android 3.0 Honeycomb OS, the Xoom offers a 10.1-inch high-definition display, a 1GHz dual-core processor, a 2-megapixel video camera in front, and a 5-megapixel camera in back. A variety of tablets have already been hitting the market, but the Xoom faces a relatively small list of rivals with comparable features, at least for now.Looking ahead, Samsung will release a new model of its Galaxy Tab tablet with a 10.1-inch screen and Honeycomb operating system. Research In Motion is prepping a string of BlackBerry PlayBook tablets for launch this year. And of course, market leader Apple is hardly standing still. With its still dominantiPad posing the ultimate challenge for any competing tablet, Apple will reportedly announce its iPad 2 at an event set for Wednesday.<br/><br/>0 Vote(s) ]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[LAS VEGAS--BlackBerry owners now have a way to send content directly from their phones to their PCs.(Credit:Tazzle)Introduced this week atCES, the new Tazzle IT device connects a BlackBerry to any Windows PC via a Bluetooth connection, allowing people to send e-mails, file attachments, documents, photos and other files to their computers for easier access.BlackBerry owners install the Tazzle app on their phones and computers and then plug the Tazzle USB stick into the PC for instant BlueTooth pairing. Once the connection is established, people can not only send content from their phones but also directly view and print that content on the PC.The demo at CES worked smoothly. The pairing was fast, and the files selected on the BlackBerry transferred to the PC fairly quickly. With security a key concern for many BlackBerry users, the Tazzle rep told me the device uses a built-in hardware firewall and secure software. By default, the files sent from the phone to the PC aren't physically downloaded onto the computer. So once the document is closed on the PC, all traces of it are gone. However, people can save a copy of the file on the PC if they wish.The company is targeting the Tazzle both for BlackBerry users who want to be able to quickly work with content from their phones and IT administrators worried about BlackBerry devices directly accessing their networks. Right now, Tazzle works only on the BlackBerry, but support for Android devices is being targeted for the second quarter. Apple iDevice owners are out of luck, though. The Tazzle rep said that the closed nature of theiPhone leaves it out of the running for now.The Tazzle IT device sells for $79.99 at the company's Web site, while the app itself is available for free at the site or on BlackBerry App World.<br/><br/>0 Vote(s) ]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[The Federal Communications Commission officially adopted Net neutrality rules this week, but the agency's authority to enforce the controversial rules may still be in question.With the support of Democratic FCC Chairman Julius Genachowski, as well as the two other Democratic commissioners, the agency passed the rules in a 3-to-2 vote. The new Net neutrality rules essentially create two classes of service subject to different rules: one that applies to fixed broadband networks and one for wireless networks. The FCC says this is necessary because wireless networks are technologically different from fixed broadband networks.The first rule requires both wireless and wireline providers to be transparent in how they manage and operate their networks. The second Net neutrality rule prohibits the blocking of traffic on the Internet. The rule applies to fixed wireline broadband network operators, as well as to wireless providers. However, Genachowski did not address the question of legal authority in his comments.&amp;149'&amp;nbsp' FCC's Net neutrality ruling: Misplaced nostalgiaThe brilliant orange glow of a total lunar eclipse (photos) More headlinesReport: Microsoft bringing Windows to ARM chipsMicrosoft will reportedly soon unveil a full-fledged version of Windows that runs on ARM chips, a drastic departure from the x86 architecture.&amp;149'&amp;nbsp' Windows 8 on ARM, but don't hold your breath&amp;149'&amp;nbsp' Rumor: Windows 8 to get gaming focus&amp;149'&amp;nbsp' Windows on ARM chips: Intel impactBank of America cuts off WikiLeaksAnnouncement comes as the embattled document-sharing site is reportedly readying a release that targets the banking giant.&amp;149'&amp;nbsp' WikiLeaks app yanked from Apple's App StoreSweden's case against WikiLeaks' Julian AssangeIn an interview with CNET, the Swedish attorney for two women who accuse Julian Assange of sexual misconduct lays out the case against WikiLeaks editor.Why Netflix has content and Google TV doesn'tGoogle TV continues to stumble, and one of the problems is that the software can't access top content.

<description><![CDATA[Microsoft&amp;39's CEO Steve Ballmer shows off a slate PC at CES 2010.(Credit:James Martin/CNET)Wall Street's confidence in Microsoft for next year has taken a hit, with what Goldman Sachs is attributing to the software giant's approach in both tablet PCs and mobile phones.In a Goldman Sachs research note released over the weekend, picked up by blog Techflash, the firm says that Microsoft is due for a &quot;more challenging year&quot; and that the company's top-line growth (or revenue) could slow from 12 percent this year to 7 percent next year. Microsoft beat expectations in its last fiscal quarter, pulling in $5.41 billion in net income, on revenue of $16.2 billion. The company also saw a 13 percent growth in sales, taking into account a deferral of revenue ahead of the release ofWindows 7. Some of the factors Microsoft's CFO Peter Klein had attributed to the those numbers were strong sales of Office 2010, Windows 7, and theXbox 360, as well as growth in the enterprise. Despite that, the research note points to weaknesses in the company's tablet strategy, and mobile devices at large. &quot;A tablet response is still not forthcoming and our early read onWindows Phone 7 has not yet changed our view that Microsoft's share in mobile OSes will remain at only the single-digit level,&quot; the research note said. Microsoft has not yet released sales numbers on Windows Phone 7 devices, though it is expected to as part of the company's keynote speech at the Consumer Electronics Show next month. There have also been questions about if and when the company intends to bring that same experience to larger form-factor devices, like a tablet, to fit in things like instant resume and increasingly long standby times--two things Windows 7 cannot yet quite match. In any case, Microsoft's continuing tablet strategy should come into more of a focus at CES, where last year's keynote speech featured a number of tablets, including HP's Slate 500, which had been rumored to be scrapped.  <br/><br/>0 Vote(s) ]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[Intel made a big deal at the recent Consumer Electronics Show about how its Sandy Bridge combination graphics-microprocessor chip has been one of its most successful in history. But it spoke too soon. Now the world&amp;'s biggest chip maker said it has discovered a design flaw in the chip&amp;'s companion chip set, forcing a production delay that will cost it $1 billion in lost revenues and replacement costs.The delay could derail the shipment schedules for more than 500 computers using the Sandy Bridge processor, which combines graphics and a microprocessor in a single piece of silicon. That&amp;'s going to be bad for the PC industry, since Intel can&amp;'t supply millions of new chips overnight. That could give an advantage to rival Advanced Micro Devices, which is shipping a rival combo processor under the Fusion platform name.Intel said it will reduce its revenue target for the first quarter by $300 million and incur repair and replacement costs of $700 million. That&amp;'s the biggest quality problem since the Pentium bug hit Intel in 1994, when Intel recalled a math-flawed processor at a cost of $400 million. It&amp;'s a big black eye for Intel CEO Paul Otellini, pictured, but in all likelihood, this sounds like a mistake that one or two engineers made in designing a small part of a very big chip.The tough part for Intel is that it can&amp;'t fix the chip with a simple software update. It has to remake the chips in its factories, and that causes a delay of weeks for computer makers who want to ship their machines now. Since Intel won more than 500 designs for Sandy Bridge, the delay could affect sales for the entire PC industry.Intel said it discovered the flaw in the recently released support chip, code-named Cougar Point, and has had to redesign the silicon. That could mean a delay of 12 weeks (the typical time it takes to get a chip through a factory) in getting corrected chip sets to customers. Cougar Point had flaws in its Serial ATA (SATA) ports, which means that SATA-linked devices such as hard drives and DVD drives might not work properly over time. Cougar Point is a companion chip set for Sandy Bridge, which itself was not affected by any design problem.Intel said it expects to deliver the updated version of the chip set to customers in late February and expects a full recovery of production volumes by April. The company said it would accept the return of the Cougar Point chip sets. The systems with the bad chips have been shipping since January 9 and there are relatively few consumers who already have flawed systems in their hands. The potentially affected consumers are those who bought second-generation Core i5 and Core i7 quad-core systems.For the fourth quarter of 2010, Intel will take a charge against earnings related to chips shipped during that quarter, reducing the expected gross margin percentage by 4 points from the previously reported 67.5 percent. The company will also take a charge in the first quarter, reducing gross margin percentage by 2 percentage points and the full year by 1 percentage point.Separately, Intel said it recently completed the acquisition of Infineon Technologies&amp;' Wireless Solutions business. And it expects to complete the $7.6 billion acquisition of McAfee by the end of the first quarter. For the first quarter, Intel now expects revenue of $11.7 billion, plus or minus $400 million, compared to the previous expectation of $11.5 billion, plus or minus $400 million. Yes, that&amp;'s actually higher than previously expected, since the market is better than it was in the last forecast. But gross margin percentage is now expected to be 61 percent, compared to the previous expectation of 64 percent.Next Story: Android steals tablet market share from Applea4a4s iPad Previous Story: Android topples Nokia as world&amp;'s leading smartphone platform in Q4 2010PrintEmailTwitterFacebookGoogle BuzzLinkedIn      DiggStumbleUponRedditDeliciousGoogleMore&amp;8230'          Tags: Cougar Point, Sandy BridgeCompanies: advanced micro devices, IntelPeople: Paul Otellini          Tags: Cougar Point, Sandy BridgeCompanies: advanced micro devices, IntelPeople: Paul OtelliniDean is lead writer for GamesBeat at VentureBeat.
