The Software Distribution Generation Gap (33:03 minutes)
------------------------------------------------------------
"Software vendors are so focused on building the next great application
and on features and functions in that application that they've lost
sight of what really matters, which is making sure that the application
that you build gets used, gets in the hands of the users, and that they
get their work done," said Embarcadero CEO Wayne Williams.

Story Highlights
------------------------------------------------------------

------------------------------------------------------------
1. Birdman Takes to the Sky on a Wing and a Wii
------------------------------------------------------------

Dutch mechanical engineer Jarno Smeets created a stir on YouTube
recently with a video that shows him flying by flapping a set of wings
attached to his back -- without any connection between the wings and his
arms. However, many questions have been raised regarding the video's
authenticity.

2. Does Your IaaS Environment Have Sleeper Cells?
------------------------------------------------------------

As many active users of IaaS can tell you, IaaS, whether implemented by
an external service provider or provided by an internal service provider
team, arguably grants you much more control of the underlying technology
"substrate" than other cloud deployment models. In some cases, this is a
good thing.

3. The New iPad Is a Sizzler in More Ways Than One
------------------------------------------------------------

During the new iPad's first weekend out of the gate, the tablets sold
like peanuts at a baseball game, but it didn't take long for a potential
problem to crop up with the device. Concerns raised in online Apple
forums about heat produced by the tablet set off a string of stories
that culminated Tuesday with the company denying that the new iPad is
suffering mass malfunctions.

4. TEA: A Smooth Text Editor That Hits the Sweet Spot
------------------------------------------------------------

The TEA Text Editor is a very handy writing tool that delivers a much
different user interface. For most computer users cranking out words or
program code for digital consumption, text editors are often preferable
to feature-bloated word processors. TEA pours on features yet keeps from
getting too steamy.

5. Plan Afoot to Tame the Wild World of WiFi
------------------------------------------------------------

Users of mobile devices on GSM networks may soon be able to roam
seamlessly from one WiFi hotspot to another without having to repeatedly
log in and authenticate their devices. The GSM Association and the
Wireless Broadband Alliance are collaborating to create technical and
commercial frameworks for WiFi roaming. The idea is to let mobile
devices seamlessly connect to WiFi hotspots using a SIM card.
