Woz: Windows Phone is 'beautiful,' Android 'no contest,' still loves iPhone, ask again tomorrow

When Steve Wozniak talks mobile, people love to listen. Last time we checked in, he was lauding some of Android's finer points, and now he's raining praise on Windows Phone. In an interview with A New Domain, the Apple co-founder was all too happy to share his recent positive experiences with the Espoo / Redmond collaboration. In particular, Woz waxes about how intuitive the interface is, and how naturally apps lead you around. He goes on to say how there's nothing he's seen that isn't more beautiful (than iOS and Android) on the Windows system, before claiming Android is "no contest" when it comes to the interface. It's not all lemonade and roses, however, as he then admits he's no fan of the voice control functionality compared to the other two platforms. When pushed to admit what he uses as default, it's still the iPhone -- two of them in fact -- but Woz's ability to see the best in all mobile operating systems will be sure to further confirm his status as one of tech's most liked. Head down to the source to hear for yourself.

Predictably named iPavement puts hotspots into the sidewalk

We know what it's like to be in a foreign country without a mobile internet connection. Although there are domestic options making it easier to connect our devices abroad, Spanish company iPavement wants to help confused tourists (and their confused devices) by seamlessly integrating hotspots into tiles -- which are seamlessly integrated into the ground. It's unclear whether users will have open access to the entire world wide web, or only controlled info about the city, but the service is at least free to use. The 24kg (53lb) tiles are slightly larger than normal, installed a maximum of 20 meters (66 feet) from one another and only work at temperatures between -10 - 45 degrees Celsius (14 - 113 degrees Fahrenheit). Touristy cloud apps like maps, coupons, and traffic updates in various languages are also a part of the deal, and you would look like less of a tourist without that huge guide to Madrid. Just lose the fanny pack and you'll be set.

LG Viper 4G LTE review

They said it wouldn't last. And they -- pundits, analysts, bloggers, GSM fanatics -- were right. WiMAX, that flavor of 4G found in the 2500MHz band, has proven to be more of a hindrance than help during Sprint's transition from underdog to reinvigorated titan. Then there are the kerfuffles it's endured standing on the sidelines -- namely, watching one-time LTE partner LightSquared squander its regulatory good graces. Beleaguered would be putting it mildly; Sprint faces a treacherous climb uphill to the mobile Olympus where Verizon, AT&T and now-spectrum-rich T-Mobile sit -- after all, it's hard to change the tide of public perception, overcome the limitations of a dreadful 3G CDMA network and move away from weak third-party 4G signals. Yet, with all of those negatives working against it, a planned rollover to LTE technology might just be the panacea Sprint has so badly needed.

Right now, at least, a wish and a hope are all Sprint can dole out to existing subscribers toying with the idea of switching carriers. Its nascent LTE network, currently in testing across six US cities, hasn't been cleared for launch, which makes its first 4G handset, the Viper 4G LTE, a dress rehearsal of sorts. And what a low-key affair it is: no cutting-edge aesthetics or kickstand here, just mid-range specs and a humble design made from recycled materials. But for anyone itching to surf those faster waves, LG's dual-core, NFC-enabled workhorse could be a tempting buy when it goes on sale Sunday for $100 (with a two-year contract). So will the dangling carrot of faster 4G persuade consumers to choose this over all those other mid-tier Android phones? Let's find out.

Prodigy Says Mobb Deep Used Twitter Scandal 'To Our Advantage'

'Me and Havoc's businessmen,' Prodigy explains during radio interview in New York.
By Nadeska Alexis

Nine days ago a series of negative tweets from Havoc's Twitter account — directed at his Mobb Deep counterpart, Prodigy — seemed to signal the beginning of a breakup for the group, but since then, both rappers have backtracked considerably. First, that his phone was hacked, and now Prodigy admits that it was all a very bizarre publicity stunt.

During a Tuesday interview with Cipha Sounds and Peter Rosenberg on New York's Hot 97 radio station, Prodigy continued with the somewhat questionable narrative, explaining that when Havoc's phone was hacked, they didn't immediately take action. He says that the group decided to take the publicity, negative as it was.

"When we got down to the bottom of it, and me and Hav realized what was going on, we realized it was all bogus but we kept quiet," Prodigy explained. "We ain't say nothing about it, we didn't get up on Twitter right away and say, 'It's bogus' so that's probably why people think we set it up or something. But we just waited for a minute.

"Me and Havoc's businessmen," Prodigy added, "We stepped back and was like, 'Alright, how can we use this to our advantage? We were like, 'Alright, we got a record about to drop.' "

Cipha and Peter weren't buying the story that easily, though, and they asked a few questions of their own. Among their concerns: Why did the tweets from Havoc's account come from the Web, when he claimed that his phone was stolen? Why had trustworthy sources confirmed that there was a falling out within the group?

"Me and Hav have a lot of fights and arguments," Prodigy replied. "And when we fight, we laugh about it and tell people in interviews; it's nothing to be ashamed of. With me and Hav, our whole thing with Mobb Deep is to try to make ourselves one of the longest-running hip-hop groups that there is and we know that. That's our goal, so when little arguments pop up, it's nothing for us to hide."

Though the story still seems to have a few holes in it, Prodigy did release a new single, "Gangsta Love," in the midst of the drama. If things are all good between Prodigy and Havoc, maybe the duo will drop an album this year after all.

Another Siri-Like App, Voice Answer, Hits The App Store For Those Of Us Without The iPhone 4S

Looks like Apple might be loosening its grip even more on voice recognition apps? Or, it simply just feels that the competition is not as good as its own native Siri. We've just gotten word from Netherlands-based developer Sparkling Apps that its voice-response app, Voice Answer -- rejected by Apple for the nearly three months -- has been approved by Apple and is now live in the App Store, and usable on any iPhone, iPod or iPad running iOS 4.2 or later. It took "almost three months of negotiating, tweaking and pushing," developer Martijn van der Spek tells TechCrunch. Like Siri, the app is based on data from Wolfram Alpha, among other sources, and lets users ask questions by either speaking to the app or typing in a question. It's priced at ?2.49 ($3.99).
