Filed under: Handsets, Palm, GSM, EDGE, HSDPA, UMTS According to the press materials, Palm hadn't intended to announce a timeframe for the 3G GSM version of the Pre this week, but Ed Colligan can pretty much do and say whatever he pleases -- it's one of the perks of wearing the CEO hat -- and he's apparently mentioned in an interview with IDG that it'll roll out in the first half of 2009. That puts the model right in line with the launch window for the CDMA-based Sprint version, giving the carrier virtually zero exclusivity on the global stage -- so if 1337 h4x0rz can figure out how to unlock the thing (and if we were betting folk, we'd wager they can), this all means EDGE-only Pres could end up on AT&T and T-Mobile USA lickety-split. Even if that means losing the European 3G guts, you know you'd buy it. Come on now, don't lie to yourself.Palm CEO says Europe gets Pre in the first half, too originally appeared on Engadget Mobile on Fri, 09 Jan 2009 14:00:00 EST.

Painting mice fluorescent colours might not be as crazy as it sounds. Scientists reporting in the latest issue of the Royal Society journal Proceedings of the Royal Society B have used the technique to show which mice are likely to spread a disease which is potentially fatal to humans. Researchers based at the University of Utah looked at the spread of Hantavirus amongst wild deer mice and proved that bigger, older mice are responsible for most of the disease cases.

The British Government’s flagship Change4Life anti-obesity campaign is being partly funded by food companies that have been linked to weight problems, according to a report. Published by the medical journal Lancet, the report says that ministers are of the opinion that the push, which includes participation from food companies such as Pepsi and retailers and an 8 million-pound television campaign, may help ease a growing trend which has left one in four Britons obese. However, adds the journal, the decision to allow producers of fatty and sugary foods, which it accuses of contributing to the obesity crisis, to take part in the campaign "beggared belief". The report warned that the Government was party to sponsorship arrangements with supermarkets "that display rows upon rows of sugary snacks, cereals, and soft drinks." "So what is the subliminal, or perhaps not so subliminal, take-home message when PepsiCo brings us sports personalities who advocate exercise? If you do exercise, it is OK to drink Pepsi and eat crisps?" the Telegraph quoted it as saying. "Ill-judged partnerships with companies that fuel obesity should have been avoided," it added. PepsiCo, the owner of Pepsi and other brands including Tropicana, said that they would promote the benefits of an active lifestyle by involving sports stars in the campaign. The journal also accused the new adverts of being "simplistic", saying that they show a cartoon stone-age family chase a mammoth and hit a dinosaur with a club, suggesting how families used to have to catch their food. The journal says that this is contrasted with the sedentary lifestyle of a modern-day family shown eating a pizza and playing computer games. A spokesperson for the Department of Health insisted that all companies involved in the campaign were expected to adhere to a strict code of conduct. "We recognise that many organisations have influence with and can reach our target audiences in ways that we cannot. By working with these organisations, we can more effectively tackle the obesity epidemic,” he said. "This is not about saying which companies are good or bad but every company has to sign up to strict terms of engagement before they join us. Every company must help people to eat more healthily and be more active. "We have a very clear governance structure and will be very tough on companies to comply," he added. (ANI)

Unexpected snowfall in the city of Madrid has closed all four runways of Madrid Barajas Airport. The snowstorm began unalarmingly at around 08:00 am, without causing disruption, but by 11:00 the snow had become heavy and both incoming and departing flights were suspended at 11:50. Snow ploughs are said to be working and anti-freeze measures being taken, but the airport is not expected to return to complete normality before Sunday, January 11th. The weather has also caused havoc on the roads of the province. Snow has also fallen in the north of Spain, especially the Basque Country, but that is ordinary weather and had been forecast, whereas the snow in Madrid has surprised everyone, including Spain's INM, Met Office (or its public arm, the AEMET), which admits to having expected that the snows would fall some 50 kilometres north of the capital of Madrid. The disruption by the winter weather comes on the heels of problems caused by unofficial go-slows by both air traffic controllers and SEPLA, the Spanish pilots' trade union. Read more.
