MONDAY, MONDAY


BLAME CANADA
Canada did it. They are now charging an MP3 tax. Next up - takes and tarrifs and ISPs.

Yeah, that'll move things forward.


GOOGLE IS YOUR FRIEND
Google adds to it's tool quiver by tracking packages for you.


ONE FRUITCAKE TO RULE THEM ALL ...RFID technology proves the "one fruitcake" theory. Now we know that fruitcake just keeps being passed on and on.


WIRELESS NATION
Faced with being unable to get broadband in their area, the City of Cerritos has turned to WIFI.


CAN YOU HEAR ME NOW? GOOD!
After scoring his second touchdown of the day, New Orleans Saint's Wide Receiver Joe Horn celebrated by taking a cell phone from beneath the padding around the post and calling his mother. He was penalized 15 yards for unsportsmanlike conduct and is due to be fined about $15,000. OUCH. That's some "roaming charge!"


PSX ARRIVAL
Sony's new Playstation, the PSX, has arrived in Japan with a thud. Apparently, even though it has a DVDR burner and hard drive to record and burn TV shows, last minute changes to other features (SONY dumped the ability to playback CD-R and DVD+RW discs and MP3 music files, and its Ethernet port) makes the PSX more of a high priced "dog." So much so that it's probably cheaper to buying a PS2, a DVD recorder, and a digital video recorder separately.

OUCH.
