It's Wednesday, December 06, 2017. Hey, good morning! You look fabulous. Welcome to Wednesday, where the line between phones and PCs is blurrier than ever, and we’re entering a new round of Google vs. Amazon. Thanks to mobile CPUs. Late last year, Microsoft announced plans to make Windows 10 work on ARM CPUs -- usually used in phones and tablets -- and now we’ve seen the first real devices. The HP Envy x2 and the ASUS NovaGo both have Qualcomm Snapdragon 835 chips inside, but run all your usual Windows programs. The best part is that, just like phones, they’re instantly on and promise incredible battery life. Plus, AMD is getting in on the trick. | | Ooops. Some finicky software, a broken laptop and the skyrocketing value of bitcoin combine to make for one epic tale. | | Here we go again. Amazon only recently brought YouTube back to its Echo Show, and now Google says it will block the company’s devices again. Google is ticked off because Amazon isn’t selling some of its hardware or making Prime Video work with Cast, putting the two at odds.We’ll see who blinks first (or ever). | | Yes, we know you would rather use microSD. So many podcasts. | | Choose whatever carrier you like. If you’re paying $1,000 or more for a new handset, you should be able to choose your network at will, and now you can. | | But wait, there's more... | |
