Section: Communications, Cellphones, Cellular Providers, Smartphones, Mobile The release date and all that good stuff still remains a mystery, but the folks over at the Boy Genius Report have gotten their hands on the AT&T Palm Pre Plus. And like all good tech bloggers would do, they offered up an unboxing gallery. Interesting to see, but at the same time the Pre Plus appears to be the same as what we have seen with AT&T. Of course, the outer packaging is clearly AT&T. Otherwise, it was noted that the AT&T Pre Plus does indeed have the Address Book backup service (as expected) and that its built into Synergy. Looks like a release is coming sooner than later at this point, but until then hit the read link below and check out the rest of the images.

Section: Business News, Apple The Wall Street Journal has officially unveiled details in regards to the iPad. What we have is brief, but should be enough to convince anyone either way. First things first though, the pricing. The iPad edition of the Wall Street Journal will be going to $3.99 a week, which amounts to $17.29 per month. Overall, that is not that bad of a price, except it does see a little on the high side when compared to other Wall Street Journal subscription options including the print edition for $2.29 a week, the online only edition for $1.99 a week or the print and online edition for $2.69 a week. Additionally, iPad users will still be able to grab the free WSJ app that is currently available for the iPhone. As for those that want to pay up, here is what you will get for your $17.29 a month. - “Now” issue featuring updated coverage throughout the day, with top article picks from Journal editors
- Market data including quote search and customizable Watchlist
- Videos and slideshows
- Subscriber only content: Business, Markets, Opinion and more
- 7 day archive downloaded for reading anytime, even offline
- Saved sections and articles for later reading
- My Journal for saving and sharing articles across WSJ.com and mobile
It was also noted that current WSJ subscribers will get “full access to the iPad app for a limited time.” Of course, in the end the people most likely to pay for a WSJ app are either already doing so, or in a position to not question the $17.29 monthly subscription cost.
