An Android developer recently discovered a clandestine application called Carrier IQ built into most smartphones that doesn't just track your location; it secretly records your keystrokes, and there's nothing you can do about it. Is it time to put on a tinfoil hat? That depends on how you feel about privacy.

SAN FRANCISCO, California, United States—Sony revealed on Monday that mobile phone game sensation "Angry Birds" is heading for the Japanese entertainment giant's PlayStation 3 consoles and PSP handheld videogame devices.
The addictive puzzle game in which players catapult birds to smash through structures protecting egg-stealing green pigs has rocketed to popularity since being released by Finland-based Rovio Mobile in late 2009.
"Angry Birds" will feature 63 levels, Sony said in a PlayStation blog message listing games set for release in the coming week.

It'll be available as a PlayStation mini - minis being lightweight downloadable games, predominantly intended for the PSP. Many of them are also compatible with the PS3 as well, however, although it isn't clear if Angry Birds will work on both platforms.
The Sony blog post says that the PSN version of Angry Birds will feature 63 levels - considerably fewer than the hundreds available on the hugely successful iPhone and other versions.
Angry Birds makers Rovio said last year that they planned to bring Angry Birds to more platforms in 2011. Already available for iOS, Android, Symbian^3, Palm's webOS and Nokia's Maemo, Finnish studio Rovio said they planned to bring it to the three major consoles - PS3, Xbox and Wii - as well as Windows and Mac computers and the Nintendo DS. They have also hinted that a Windows Phone 7 version could possibly be in the works.

Windows 7 is harder to hack than Apple's Snow Leopard--mainly due to Flash being installed by default on SL.
Security expert Charlie Miller has participated in the Pwn2Own contest over the last two years, and has won both times. Held in the CansecWest Conference in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, the contest challenges contestants to find "big bugs" in web browsers, operating systems, and even in mobile devices. With the 2010 conference just around the corner (March 24), oneITsecurity conducted an interview with the champ and asked Miller which was harder to crack: Windows 7 or Snow Leopard?

The iPad, which is larger in size but similar in design to Apple's popular iPhone, was billed by CEO Steve Jobs on Wednesday as "so much more intimate than a laptop and so much more capable than a smart phone."
