iPhone 5 ‘Problems’ Explained

With Apple's most recent iPhone launch, it seems that a wide range of possible "problems" are affecting users -- but are people just nitpicking because it's, well, Apple? Some are complete non-issues, while others are in fact legitimate problems to be concerned with.

Samsung Galaxy Note II variants for AT&T, T-Mobile, Verizon possibly caught at the FCC

It's no secret that Samsung plans to bring the Galaxy Note II to many US carriers by mid-fall. Even so, getting there requires the FCC's blessing -- which makes us glad to see the regulator approve what might be three carriers' variants of the giant Android phone. The SGH-i317 looks to be the model for AT&T and Canadian carriers, having been greenlit for their key 3G and 4G bands while lining up with a briefly available benchmark of the device sharing the Note II's HD screen and use of Jelly Bean. The SCH-i605? Based on its inclusions of both CDMA and GSM, a lone 700MHz LTE band and a past screen capture leak, it's a dual-mode Note II destined for Verizon. As for the SGH-T889, it's even more conspicuous beyond what we've already seen: the T889's HSPA includes the 1,700MHz AWS frequency that T-Mobile will still call home for a long while. LTE likewise exists on the 1,700MHz and roaming-friendly 700MHz bands in possible instances of futureproofing. While we rarely want to say a mobile device is confirmed until we see it first-hand, the convenient timing and natures of the three FCC approvals only help to fuel suspicions that Samsung's pen-focused event on October 24th is all about the Note II's American launch.

These Harry Potter Blu-rays Are Your Hogwarts-Is-Real Deal of the Day [Dealzmodo]

Diagon Alley's online storefront—which some call Amazon—is a wonderful place. The Flourish & Blotts section is an excellent way to browse through tomes of all sorts—even muggle books, like J. K. Rowling's new decidedly adult book, The Casual Vacancy. And it's real wizardry how you can download books onto your tablet, even if it doesn't always apparate correctly the first time. And be sure to stop by Ollivanders—they've got a new wand out, and I hear it's pretty great, even if some people are complaining that it's just the old wand, but a little longer. Whatever it is, if Ollivanders is putting it out, I want it. When shopping online, it's really easy to get carried away and end up blowing all your sickles and knuts, but if you're patient, and read Dealzmodo, you can save a lot of money. More »

The Search For Minority Entrepreneurs Is Over — Now They Need To Be Ready For Investors

Editor’s note: Wayne Sutton is the founder and CEO of PitchTo, a mobile development lab that builds tools for investors to make smarter decisions and help entrepreneurs deliver exceptional pitches. This article is inspired by Dave McClure’s “Women in Tech: Put Your Money Where Your Mouth Is.” post. Follow Wayne on Twitter.  What a difference a year makes. Last year the question was “Where are the minority entrepreneurs?” It was highly motivated by the 2010 CBinsights Venture Capital Human Capital Report, which stated that only 1 percent of minority tech startup founders were founded by African-Americans. But the conversation about minority entrepreneurs didn’t only apply to African-Americans, it also included women and Hispanics. The dialogue reached its peak by various snippets from the CNN’s “Black in America 4” documentary and niche tech blogs.

Metallica: Live in France, 1984 [Video]

To commemorate Burton's contribution, Metallica has posted a live recording of a show in France from November 22, 1984. More »

Google optimizes Flight Search for tablets, makes booking trips easier

It feels like it was only yesterday that we were praising Google for giving us access to a plethora of handy, everyday tools -- oh wait, it was yesterday. At any rate, today the folks from Mountain View are back with more travel-friendly software for you to enjoy, announcing that its useful Flight Search service is now fully-optimized for use with, as Google points out, tablets such as its own Nexus 7 and, naturally, Cupertino's iPad. Jet-setters can see the changes now by simply hitting the Flights link below, and with the dearest holidays just around the corner, now is probably a good time to make use of that "lowest fare" tool.
