There are already reports of the Xbox 720 in the loom ahead, Hopefully the console can live upto its name and deal with the strong beating its gonna get from the competition, namely Sony.

A new twist of development has taken place in porting Siri to other Apple devices. A new exploit found would allow users that already own a iPhone 4S to enjoy the exploits of Siri on other iDevices. Sure a unique identifier could be formed but Apple would easily find it and ban it for abuse.
The best thing here is that this may actually hold possibility for Siri to be ported over to Android and other platforms. But the situation will always remain same. You will need an identified for the software to work with Apple’s servers.

RIM is working hard to capture the Indian App developers to get them interested in building apps for RIM very own Blackberry platform.
We see huge opportunity in mobile application development. BlackBerry App World currently has 26,000-odd registered developers from India, against 5,000 two years ago, with the applications numbering over 40,000.

RIM also has an Apple-esque revenue share model where the profit is shared 70:30. So if you have a dev brewing up in you, now is the time to filter it out.
RIM is also pushing for NFC and its development in the country, which would make it a boon for enterprise customers.
