Infinity Broadcasting Corp. on Monday became the first U.S. broadcaster to commit to offering visual radio, a mobile-phone service that lets consumers listen to radio programming while simultaneously receiving artist-related information and interactive services.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><br /><p><!--[if gte mso 9]&gt;  Normal 0       MicrosoftInternetExplorer4  &lt;![endif]--><!--[if !mso]&gt;--><br />
<span style="font-size:9pt;font-family:Verdana;">Infinity Broadcasting Corp. on Monday became the first </span><span style="font-size:9pt;font-family:Verdana;">U.S.</span><span style="font-size:9pt;font-family:Verdana;"> broadcaster to commit to offering visual radio, a mobile-phone service that lets consumers listen to radio programming while simultaneously receiving artist-related information and interactive services.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size:9pt;font-family:Verdana;">The service, developed by Nokia Corp. and hosted by Hewlett-Packard Co., has been available only in </span><span style="font-size:9pt;font-family:Verdana;">Finland</span><span style="font-size:9pt;font-family:Verdana;"> on Nokia handsets. Visual radio, however, was tested last summer in the </span><span style="font-size:9pt;font-family:Verdana;">United Kingdom</span><span style="font-size:9pt;font-family:Verdana;"> and </span><span style="font-size:9pt;font-family:Verdana;">Singapore</span><span style="font-size:9pt;font-family:Verdana;">, where the service will be available this year, along with </span><span style="font-size:9pt;font-family:Verdana;">Germany</span><span style="font-size:9pt;font-family:Verdana;"> and </span><span style="font-size:9pt;font-family:Verdana;">Sweden</span><span style="font-size:9pt;font-family:Verdana;">.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size:9pt;font-family:Verdana;">Visual radio allows subscribers to tune in to a local FM station with their mobile phone and simultaneously receive interactive information and graphics that are synchronized with the broadcast. Subscribers can view the title and artist of a song playing, check upcoming concert dates, purchase ring tones or other content from the artist and participate in radio station promotions.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size:9pt;font-family:Verdana;">&#8220;It&#8217;s all about enhancing the FM radio listening experience,&#8221; Debbie Brackeen, director of HP-Nokia global alliance, said from the National Association of Broadcasters convention in </span><span style="font-size:9pt;font-family:Verdana;">Las Vegas</span><span style="font-size:9pt;font-family:Verdana;">, </span><span style="font-size:9pt;font-family:Verdana;">Nev.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size:9pt;font-family:Verdana;">For radio stations, visual radio can increase listener loyalty and advertising revenue, HP said. Wireless carriers, on the other hand, are able to increase data-services usage and revenue.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size:9pt;font-family:Verdana;">HP, based in </span><span style="font-size:9pt;font-family:Verdana;">Palo Alto</span><span style="font-size:9pt;font-family:Verdana;">, </span><span style="font-size:9pt;font-family:Verdana;">Calif.</span><span style="font-size:9pt;font-family:Verdana;">, provides billing services for broadcasters and content providers, and also sells and markets visual radio worldwide.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size:9pt;font-family:Verdana;">Traditionally, </span><span style="font-size:9pt;font-family:Verdana;">U.S.</span><span style="font-size:9pt;font-family:Verdana;"> consumers have been slower in using data services on cellular phones than people in </span><span style="font-size:9pt;font-family:Verdana;">Asia</span><span style="font-size:9pt;font-family:Verdana;"> and </span><span style="font-size:9pt;font-family:Verdana;">Europe</span><span style="font-size:9pt;font-family:Verdana;">.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size:9pt;font-family:Verdana;">&#8220;We have very high hopes for the market in the </span><span style="font-size:9pt;font-family:Verdana;">U.S.</span><span style="font-size:9pt;font-family:Verdana;">, but the use of mobile handsets for listening to the radio is a lot more prevalent in </span><span style="font-size:9pt;font-family:Verdana;">Europe</span><span style="font-size:9pt;font-family:Verdana;"> and </span><span style="font-size:9pt;font-family:Verdana;">Asia</span><span style="font-size:9pt;font-family:Verdana;">,&#8221; Brackeen said.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size:9pt;font-family:Verdana;">Infinity has become the first </span><span style="font-size:9pt;font-family:Verdana;">U.S.</span><span style="font-size:9pt;font-family:Verdana;"> broadcaster to commit to offering the service, Brackeen said. The New York-based company, a division of Viacom Inc., operates 183 radio stations, with the majority in the nation&#8217;s top 50 markets, according to Infinity.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size:9pt;font-family:Verdana;">Financial details, as well as the timetable for delivering the new service, were not disclosed.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size:9pt;font-family:Verdana;">Visual radio today is available only through select Nokia models. The Finnish handset maker has said it would license the technology to competitors, but no timetable has been set. Nokia plans to ship 100 million handsets that support the service by the end of next year, Brackeen said.</span></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><br /><p>About <strong>65,000 children</strong> in the Caldas region of Colombia will soon be getting an XO laptop.</p>
<p>It has signed up to the One Laptop Per Child programme which puts cheap PCs  into the hands of schoolchildren.</p>
<p><strong> OLPC</strong> aims to boost the educational prospects of children in developing nations through technology.</p>
<p>Small towns and rural areas will get the first 15,000 XO laptops. The rest will be distributed over the next 18 months to the region&#8217;s larger towns.</p>
<p>Unveiling the deal <strong>Caldas&#8217;s</strong> Governor <strong>Mario Aristizabal</strong> said the region was &#8220;<strong>committed to giving each and every child of primary school age the same opportunity to access knowledge as the most privileged children in New York, Berlin or Tokyo&#8221;.</strong></p>
<p>A separate deal with OLPC is being negotiated to buy XO laptops for schools in and around the state capital Manizales.</p>
<p>In a statement announcing the deal, OLPC founder Nicholas Negroponte said the organisation was starting to get &#8220;good traction&#8221; from countries keen to sign up and buy the distinctive green and white XO laptops in large numbers.</p>
<p>The OLPC&#8217;s declared aims in its early days was to create a machine that only cost $100 and sold in the millions. So far it has failed to deliver on both those objectives.</p>
<p>Currently each machine costs $188 and OLPC has sold about 600,000 of them.</p>
<p>In mid-May the OLPC group unveiled a deal with Microsoft to put the Windows XP operating system on the XO. <strong>Professor Negroponte</strong> said many nations wanted the laptops to run Windows before they signed up.</p>
<p>The project has also unveiled reference designs for a second generation machine, which will take the form of an e-book with twin touch screens.</p>
<p>Mr Negroponte said he hoped the device could be released in 2010 and cost $75.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><br /><p><strong>Yahoo</strong> has said Microsoft is no longer interested in buying the company but that it &#8220;makes sense&#8221; for the two to discuss working together.</p>
<p>In his fullest comments since <strong>Microsoft dropped its $47.5bn</strong> bid this month, Jerry Yang admitted a merger would have had a &#8220;tremendous amount of power&#8221;.</p>
<p>He insisted that it had been Microsoft which had broken off talks over price.</p>
<p>But <strong>Mr Yang </strong>said <strong>Yahoo</strong> was still &#8220;<strong>listening</strong>&#8221; to proposals being put forward by its rival.</p>
<p>Despite the end of bid talks, there has been continuing speculation that the duo will strike some kind of commercial arrangement to help them compete with Google in the internet search market.</p>
<p>Speaking at a conference in California, Mr Yang confirmed the two firms were continuing to discuss the prospect of &#8220;other partnerships&#8221;.</p>
<p>&#8220;<strong>Microsoft is no longer interested in buying the company</strong> and they are discussing various other partnerships with us,&#8221; he said.</p>
<p>&#8220;<strong>We definitely have to understand what they are proposing</strong>. <strong>They clearly have an interest in Yahoo and we need to understand more</strong>.&#8221;</p>
<p>Yahoo always argued that Microsoft&#8217;s offer undervalued its business but several shareholders, led by Carl Icahn, have criticised the firm for not having an alternative growth strategy.</p>
<p>Yahoo was forced to postpone its AGM earlier this month after Mr Icahn threatened to unseat the board, but Mr Yang said the firm did not feel &#8220;under siege&#8221;.</p>
