Even though some libraries have already stepped into the digital age by offering eReaders to its members, this seems to be the first time a library develops such a wide program...
BGR is reporting that they have obtained images of some next-generation iPhone cases. But these aren't the same iPhone 5 cases we've seen popping up all over Asia for the past month. They are actually for the iPhone 4S.

According to CNET, Apple is about to launch a pilot program in which they will loan iPads to retail employees. The loan program will initially start in Apple's San Francisco flagship store, and might extend to other cities.
Employees will be able to check out an iPad for a week, just like they would be able to check out a book from a library. The goal, of course, is to have Apple employees become even more familiar with the device so they can provide an even higher level of customer service...
It was only five days ago that I predicted Sprint would have to put an end to its unlimited data plan, and it seems that I was right. Following Verizon and AT&T's lead, a leaked internal document reveals that Sprint will start capping their unlimited tethering data plan to 5GB/month, starting October 2nd.
In views of all the recent hints that Sprint will get the iPhone, this move was most likely made to prevent future iPhone users from going over the top with data while using their device as a mobile hotspot...

Former FTC official and new Google employee Suzanne Michel testified today before the Senate Judiciary Committee that all three major search engines had to submit a bid to Apple for becoming the default search engine in iOS.
