Users running OS X Mountain Lion version 10.8.5 are beginning to see an “Open in iBooks” button for purchased books in the iTunes Store, replacing the previous “Download” button text. The button, while functionless on Mountain Lion, is yet another indication of the imminent launch of OS X Mavericks late this month. Clicking the button on a computer running Mavericks will indeed open the selected book in the all-new iBooks application....

As Apple previously announced during its Q3 2012 earnings call yesterday, Mountain Lion is officially available for download in the Mac App Store for $19.99.

Netflix is giving Gwyneth Paltrow and her infamous lifestyle brand Goop a TV show - called The Goop Lab - but this decision feels wildly irresponsible. Over the past decade, Oscar-winning actress Gwyneth Paltrow has become primarily defined by two aspects of her career: Playing Pepper Potts in the Marvel Cinematic Universe and her wellness company Goop. Originally launched as a weekly newsletter in 2008, Goop has turned into a multi-million dollar empire of new-age advice, lifestyle merchandise, food, and beauty branding, and even an annual celebrity-laden summit....

In one episode of Netflix’s The Goop Lab, you can’t help but wonder if Gwyneth Paltrow even believes in what she’s selling. Ever since Oscar-winning actress Gwyneth Paltrow created Goop, her infamous lifestyle brand that has since grown into a multi-million dollar business, the company and its boss have been subject to ridicule and skepticism. It’s hard not to be somewhat suspicious of a group that makes outlandish claims about the benefits of jade vaginal eggs, sells “psychic vampire repellent”, and espouses the health boosts provided by coffee enemas....

While these technological improvements are still part and parcel of research projects, many publicly funded grant programs now require researchers and technologists alike to consider the businesses and vertical sectors that their work will enable and support. Like ICT itself, wireless networks can enhance the running of any modern business. From manufacturing to agriculture, healthcare to environment and water management, and onto smart energy and smart cities, each sector requires its own specific support from wireless networks....

At CES 2020 today, the Bluetooth Special Interest Group has announced a new Bluetooth standard for audio. The new standard is called LE (Low Energy) Audio and is designed to enhance the Bluetooth audio experience with features like audio sharing, native support for hearing aids, and more.

Bloomberg has a story about New York-based books publisher John T. Colby suing Apple in federal court today over an alleged infringement of their ‘iBooks’ trademark: Patently Apple pointed in April of 2010 to Apple’s ‘iBooks’ and ‘iBookStore’ trademark applications with the United States Patent & Trademark Office. Back then, Apple asserted a claim of priority for iBooks based on Trinidad and Tobago application number 41872, filed earlier that year, probably in an effort to have their ‘iBooks’ trademark claim granted ahead of any possible lawsuit....

There’s a furiously healthy grey market in the iPhone in China — we wonder how it works? Turns out it is quite complicated, involving early morning queues at US Apple Stores, backstreet sales deals at stores in Chinatown, unlocking, shipping and later sale in China, where the devices actually get made. The interesting tale is available at the New York Times, which tells us it works like this: “People wait in line at an Apple store to buy the newest iPhone for $600, paying a premium to skip the AT&T contract....

In a move bound to set the scene for another round of Apple-related prognostication, the company is also offering attendees who sign-up for the event by October 14 a discount on the regular price. Does this connect to other rumoured events on that date? Probably not, but outside of parts of Apple HQ, no one really knows. But Apple’s recent move to liberalise its iPhone SDK will at least mean developers speaking at the event will be able to go into much more detail on their experiences building applications for iPhone than ever before....

As one of the genre-defining teenage dramas of the 2000s, One Tree Hill introduced a new generation of viewers to the concept of the guilty pleasure of rooting for your favorite relationships - and rooting against those you absolutely cannot stand. From the very beginning, the series was driven by love triangles, ones that spanned generations and found children repeating the mistakes of their parents. But along the way, love stories were told that defied all expectations of teenage dramas and their typical cliches....

We know Adobe has introduced a feature for Flash developers which lets them purpose versions of their applications for the iPhone. The upcoming version of Flash CS5 will allow you the option to “Export Project to native iPhone application.” While Apple hasn’t yet uttered comment on this, we’re hopeful the company will not oppose the first third-party development IDE for its device. We’re most intrigued, however, by ARM’s announcement that they have optimised Adobe Flash Player 10....
