Meet Pebble Time, The All-New Smartwatch From Pebble





Pebble helped in popularizing two big concepts in gadgets: Kickstarter and the smart watch. Now, the company is back with news that applies in both areas, with a brand new Pebble smartwatch called Pebble Time that’s debuting today on Kickstarter.


The new hardware has a full color, always-on e-paper screen, but features a slimmer, sleeker design and maintains its week-long battery life. The software is new, too, with a focus on providing you with all the information you need at a glance in one place, both for now and for the future.

After buying Travelocity earlier this month for $280 million, Expedia continues its online travel acquisition spree. Today, the company announced an agreement to acquire Orbitz for $1.6 billion — or $12 per share — in cash, a premium of 29 percent on Orbitz’s current share price.

The deal speaks to ongoing consolidation in the market, but also Expedia’s bigger competitive threat in the form of Priceline, which owns Kayak and other large travel properties, and the fact that perhaps Orbitz saw the consolidation writing on the wall itself.

Drone Maker DJI Rolls Back Buggy Update That Restricted D.C. Flights Following White House Crash!

 

 

DJI, the maker of the drone which crashed on the white house lawn last month, is rolling back the software update that was designed to prevent flights  over much of Washington D.C., citing “a small number of reported issues” with the software download. The update was pushed out fairly quickly after the national security incident, and used "geo-fencing"(A virtual barrier) to prevent drones from taking off within restricted flight zones, and flying around the Washington D.C. metropolitan area.The software, which was released for the company’s Phantom 2, Phantom 2 Vision and Phantom 2 Vision+ drones, added a “no-fly” zone that was centered on Washington D.C. and then extended for a 15.5 million radius in all directions. It disabled Phantom pilots from being able to both take off and fly in the restricted airspace.
