...Meriweather Burruss channeled “geek-chic” via her Bill Gates-inspired number, created from an oversized, pink and white striped Oxford. The technologically-advanced accessories, including a bow crafted from the interior of an old keyboard, were a big hit with the judges. Burruss’s model requested to wear the dress out later that night for a little trouble-making, just like Gates would have done during his stint in the Yard...
...Saens’s “Piano Concerto No. 2,” featured a 13-year-old soloist, George Li, who has already toured around the world. Li’s playing was spectacular. Sitting at the bench, his feet barely reaching the pedals, he commanded the keyboard like a professional, with dazzling technical ability and power.The virtuosic writing did not hinder Li’s musicality, as he expressed dark, haunting melodies in the first movement. The second movement highlighted the depth of Li’s ability, alternating mercurial running scales with a jovial, romping tune...
...Gmail's optional features - along with more sensible applications like keyboard shortcuts, an e-mail signature or a profile picture - Mail Goggles operates on the theory that if you're sober enough to complete a series of simple arithmetic problems, you're sober enough to decide if you really want to e-mail your ex-boyfriend and tell him you still love him.

...Storm eliminates that problem with the clickable screen. It further improves the touchscreen experience with two other features designed to separate navigation and confirmation, which, Lazaridis told TIME, is the trademark of the Storm. One is the virtual keyboard: each letter lights up as you tap it so you know instantly whether you hit the right key. The second is the cursor: as you move your finger across the screen, a small arrow - which looks like a mouse cursor - appears to show exactly where your finger is pointed. Then, to confirm your selections, you push down on the entire screen...
...reputation as a secure and reliable, though somewhat stodgy, e-mail device for corporate types, but the Storm could help recast BlackBerry as a viable, exciting option for consumers as well. Unlike most devices from the smartphone maker based in Waterloo, Canada, the Storm won't have a physical keyboard, allowing for a larger, 3.2-in. touchscreen and a much neater appearance. And with a wide range of after-market applications - including Facebook, a blackjack game and a GPS navigation program - it should also be a lot more fun to use. All apps can be downloaded via a built...
