Today's Story Highlights

Leaked Docs Illuminate Google's Nexus Tablet Aspirations
Google will unveil a 7-inch tablet based on the Nvidia quad-core Tegra 3
processor and running Android 4.1, aka "Jelly Bean," at the Google I/O
developers conference this week, according to Gizmodo Australia. The
device will reportedly be dubbed the "Nexus 7" and be built by Asus.

More Surface Rumors Bubble Up
Microsoft announced its Surface tablet just last week, and already the
whispers have begun. It's going to be WiFi-only, some rumors say. Its
battery isn't quite as good as the iPad's, according to others. Price
has also been subject to speculation, and one report has indicated
Redmond will price the device between $600 and $1,000.

The Death and Rebirth of Microsoft
Last week, Microsoft effectively ended the model that created it. This
shouldn't have been a surprise, as the model hasn't been working well
for years and, as a result, Microsoft has been getting its butt kicked
all over the market by Apple. Well Microsoft apparently has had enough,
and it decided to make a fundamental change and go into hardware.

Torvalds Drops F-Bomb on Nvidia
It's not often the "F-word" figures prominently in any major debate here
in the Recently, however, it was catapulted into a starring role when it
was uttered by none other than Linus Torvalds himself during a talk at
the Aalto Centre for Entrepreneurship in Finland earlier this month. The
topic was Nvidia, to be precise -- specifically, its longstanding
lackluster approach to Linux.

AudioGlove's Smart Design Makes iPhone Speakers Scream
If you're like me, you're not impressed with the Apple's ability to
create a decent speakerphone experience on any of its iPhone models. At
the same time, occasionally you want to watch a video or listen to music
on your iPhone and all you really have is the tiny built-in speaker.
Maybe you don't have headphones, or maybe they aren't applicable at the
moment in time you want to play something.

Nintendo Gives Mobile Gamers a Much Bigger Playground
Nintendo has long been known for surprises, but it caught the gaming
world off guard on Thursday, when North American COO Reggie Fils-Aime
revealed the 3DS XL during a Nintendo Direct video post. The new duo-
screen system reportedly will be 90 percent larger than the previous
version, with a 4.88-inch top display and 4.18-inch screen on the
bottom.

Leaked Proposals Set Stage for UN Squabble Over Internet Freedom
The United States is battling over proposed United Nations regulations
that could place new burdens and restrictions on Internet companies and
users. The trouble is rooted in the decision of the UN's International
Telecommunication Union to overhaul International Telecommunication
Regulations that outline the principles governing the way international
voice, data and video traffic is handled.
