Every now and then, Google comes up with a good idea. But when it came to Google Glass, a lot of people seem to be undecided if they like the idea of wearable eyeglasses or not. Still, it did not stop both tech experts and casual consumers from talking about it. Indeed, Google Glass was one of the most talked about pieces of consumer technology in recent years, even if it was also one that polarized opinions. In the end, it may have been ruined by too much hype -- it was killed in January this year, before it even had a chance to hit stores.
Tech companies Apple and Ericsson are engaged in a heated legal battle over royalties and patents. Just recently, Apple filed a lawsuit in the US District Court for the North District of California, claiming that while it utilizes Ericsson's LTE technology in its devices, it does not agree that patents related to that technology are essential to cellular operation. Furthermore, Apple believes the patents fetch too much in royalties.

Verizon and many other cable, internet, and home phone service companies have been offering double-play and triple-play bundles for years. These bundles allow consumers to combine TV, home phone service, and high-speed Internet into one package in order to save money. Starting this week, however, Verizon is now offering a quad-play bundle that will not only include cable TV, home phone service, and broadband Internet, but will also allow customers to bundle their wireless phone service in as well.
Use your Citi Forward card to pay your cell phone bill and get free protection (up to $250) from damage and theft. All phones (including iPhones and smartphones) from all telecom providers are covered.
If you don't want to spend $5 a month for cell phone insurance, but still want some coverage, this might be an easy way to do it.

Most carriers raised their text messaging charges from 10 to 15 cents in 2006; Sprint raised another 5 cents in 2007 and now Verizon has joined them at 20 cents each.
These seem like excessive increases in a country with 3% inflation but the idea here is to push all but the most casual texters to a monthly plan. If you send/receive just one text or IM per day, you’ll most likely be better off on a bundled plan. You can sign up for a bundle when purchasing a new rate plan. For existing customers of a carrier, contact them directly to change your text messaging plan.
