looking to expand the Wall Street
Journal reports the Amazon is planning
on releasing a Roku like set-top box in
time for the holiday season no word yet
on pricing but amazon has a history of
setting the price of this device is
fairly low instead aiming to make money
off their use amazon has also rumored to
be working on two different phones one
that has four cameras on the front for
head tracking and another that would be
free rumors however suggest that those
phones will not be released this year
finally it looks like Apple is stepping
up its competition with Google now Apple
has reportedly purchased Q a company
that combines emails and calendar
appointments to provide a daily agenda
it's unclear what exactly app was
planning on doing with the new
acquisition but Q has since suspended
