  • Star phone hacker arrested - A 34 year-old Hertfordshire man has been arrested over allegations that he hacked into the phone line of television presenter Angus Deayton. The man is thought to be a BT engineer. A number of recording devices were found in a junction box near the north London home which Deayton shares with Lise Meyer and their 18 month-old son. The recorders were hooked up to Deayton's phone line and were thought to have been in place since the News of the World published its 'TV Deayton's drugs romp with vice girl' story.

  • The Volvo Safety Car running Win98 - It's billed as a $10 million James Bond-mobile. The Volvo Safety Concept Car is loaded with beepers, video cameras, video screens and computers.

The coppers claim that the new Airwave radios induce migraines, sleeplessness and concentration problems. The digital sets are due to be introduced nationwide by 2005 under a £2.9bn programme. Some scientists are concerned that the handsets pulse at 17.6Hz, which is close to the 16Hz at which brain signals operate.
  • Hitachi creates splash with water cooled P4 notebook - Hitachi has begun selling a wondrous-sounding water-cooled notebook computer in Japan, according to a report by IDG Tokyo correspondent Kuriko Miyake.

  • Radeon 9700 Gaming Experience - HardOCP has posted a subjective look at their Radeon 9700 gaming experience:  1) Quake 3 – 1600x1200x32; 4XAA; 16XAF – Running demo 001 in v1.17 the Radeon 9700 easily topped the minimum allowed deathmatch frame rate of 60fps. Compared to the Ti4600 on the same system, the Radeon 9700 easily capped its frame rates by a blistering 35% with no AF enabled on the GF4 card. 2) Jedi Knight 2 - 1600x1200x32; 4XAA; 16XAF - The "jk2ffa" demo had no issues racing past the century mark and outran the Ti4600 by a 20% margin, again with no AF enabled on the Ti4600; 3) MoH: Allied Assault - 1600x1200x32; 4XAA; 16XAF - We ran into some immediate problems here when going into the Basic Training facility to take a look around. We were met with two issues that were causing extremely noticeable visual artifacts. 4) UT2003 - 1600x1200x32; 4XAA; 16XAF - The Radeon 9700 doused the Ti4600 by about 25%. Now get a load of this, that is with the GF4 running without AA or AF. With 4XAA turned on the Ti4600 was crushed by nearly 300%.
