It’s heartening, then, to learn that robo-butler Siri is opening its mind in the upcoming iOS 7 update, adding the ability to learn how …

Nokia has taken aim at Apple in an advert for the Lumia 925. In the ad, we see a man stumble upon a street full of zombies, shuffling with their inimitable gait. And they’re all using iPhones, unlike the main protagonist, who’s wielding a snazzy new Lumia 925 (and a rather dodgy undercut). Not only is Nokia labelling all iPhone-owners …

Steve Jobs thought his life’s work would be obsolete by the time he was 50. The revelation comes in a previously unseen interview with the late Apple co-founder. The interview is from 1994, when Jobs was 39 years old, and was working at NeXT, after being ousted from Apple. Just a couple of years later, he would return to lead …

We’ve heard plenty of rumours about the LG Optimus G2 before, but here’s a fresh one: the handset will have buttons on the back, according to a tipster talking to TechTastic. A previous rumour said the G2 would be so thin it wouldn’t be able to fit buttons on the top and side, so this seems a logical compromise. I’m …

The Premier League is seeking a court order to block a streaming site from showing games illegally, the BBC reports.

British tennis star Anne Keothavong will sport adverts on her fingernails and shoelaces, of all places, to show off the detail of 4K Ultra High Definition TV at Wimbledon. 29-year-old Keothavong will sport microscopic advertising — or microtising, if we have to — on her fingernails, the hem of her skirt, her shoelaces and her tennis bat, as she tries to …
