hi i'm molly wood and welcome to the buzz report and now for the gap of the week the gadget of the week is the new fantasy fs9 underwater housing for the nikon coolpix s 9 airtight plastic case for a camera that lets you take all the photos you want underwater it's awesome for snorkeling and I got the chance to try one out during a recent Beach vacation check out the results damn you waterproof sunscreen damn you and now for the news we in the technology world are also often space geeks so I've been carefully following the story of Lisa Nowak a formerly high-flying astronaut who's now accused of attempted first-degree murder in the apparent culmination of a love triangle gone horribly wrong it seems that Noah allegedly drove 900 miles in diapers packing a knife a steel mallet a wig a trench coat and four feet of rubber hose allegedly tracked down her love rival pepper sprayed her and would have tried to kill her if police had not intervened apparently Nowak and her alleged victim were both dating the same man who is himself a space shuttle pilot you know this is really a sad and age-old story such a promising successful woman brought low by sexual jealousy and you know there's an important lesson to be learned here space makes you crazy a new york state senator wants to ban the use of iPods and other electronic devices in crosswalks which he says is extremely dangerous yes but what would that do to our hopes of having Beatles music show up on iTunes someday I mean yes you've probably heard that after nearly 30 years Apple and the beatles have settled their legal battle over the use of the Apple name trademarks and logos under the new agreement apple computer will own everything and they'll license some of it back to apple core The Beatles company now the deal made many believe that the Beatles would soon relented allowed digital distribution of their music on iTunes but see everyone thinks the Beatles are the ones holding up this process but I have access to some inside information that suggests it's Apple who doesn't really want to get involved in handling the beatles catalog see there's still this one major sticking point that's making Steve Jobs keep his distance see what I'm saying Microsoft has dramatically raised the prices for its tech support for Windows Vista after the first 90 days of free tech support the price for calling for help will go up from thirty-five dollars to $59 Wow but hey there is a silver lining here I mean it's a good bet that any problems you have with Vista will be caused by one of its no doubt thousands of source code bugs and those calls are free I'm Hollywood and this has been the buzz report thanks for watching
