24/7 Solitaire
24/7 Solitaire features 24 variations of the most well-known and best-loved single-player card game including Klondike, Freecell, Spider, Pyramid, Yukon and 7 versions of Peg-Solitaire. Most games have custom gameplay options so you can enjoy the game with your favourite rules. On-screen instructions allow learning of new Solitaire variations.

Pyramid Solitaire is a solitaire card game where the player tries to match cards into pairs that total 13 (e.g. Ace and Queen; 2 and Jack; 3 and 10; 4 and 9). When a player finds these pairs, he removes them from play. The player can not remove cards that have other cards on top of them. When a player gets stuck he can draw another card from the deck and try to use that card to form a match. The player wins when all the cards have been removed from the pyramid.

Apple Opens 100M Mobile Stores with New Software

Apple today introduced free Apple Store software for iPads, iPod touches and iPhones that enables customers to shop the retailer directly from the mobile devices. The new application supports browsing and shopping for Apple wares complete with user reviews and detailed product specifications, much like Apple’s retail website. Customers can also create appointments for in-store services such as Personal Shopping, Genius Bar or One-on-One training.

Up to now, one could always shop the Apple Store or make in-store appointments through a web browser, so in that regards, the software isn’t adding any new functionality. But Apple’s retail web channel can be clunky in a small browser window, and clunky doesn’t sell hardware or software. Apple products and shopping are as much about the experience as they are about performance and features.

Apple unveils iPhone 4

Apple Inc unveiled a new iPhone on Monday that goes on sale in scores of countries this year, preparing its fastest-ever global roll-out to try and stay a step ahead of rivals like Google Inc in a red-hot smartphone market.

CEO Steve Jobs showed off a redesigned $199 "iPhone 4" that is a quarter slimmer than the current handset. The device boasts a higher quality screen and better battery life, video chat via Wi-Fi, and a gyroscope sensor for improved gaming.

Despite the iPad's success in its first two months on the market -- more than 2 million sold in 60 days -- the iPhone remains Apple's main growth line, and the international market is key. Some analysts estimate more than two-thirds of iPhone sales are now coming from overseas.

Google wants Internet on your TV

We know people like to watch TV shows on their computer. The question is: Do they want to cruise the Internet on their televisions?

That's a question that has bogged technology companies for years. Well-known businesses from Microsoft to Roku -- even Apple -- have tried to lure Internet surfers to their television screens with little to no success.

Now Google wants a go at it.

The company last month announced Google TV, a service scheduled to debut in the fall, that's supposed to do what those other technology companies tried to do for years: Entice users to watch Internet video and cruise the Web on their TVs.

Well, good luck with that. I don't think Google is going to have an easier or more successful time luring people than those before it.

Google TV is mostly an operating system, with software that gathers Internet video from sites like YouTube or Hulu.com and plays it on your TV. The operating system also allows developers to create applications for it (much as they do for the iPhone) for services that will bring the Internet to the TV.
