Confirmed: Cobalt Blue DS Coming Feb. 10
We knew the Black n' Blue DS was coming anytime now especially since we found a Circuit City pre-order page, but a specific date had yet to be uncovered, until now. A GameStop window display advertisement has the the in-store date and it's showing February 10th. [Kotaku]

Motorola's Chief Technology Officer Officially Gone
Confirming our scoop from yesterday, InfoWorld's reporting that Moto's chief technology officer, Padmasree Warrior, is out the door, complete with her Soviet-like erasure from Motorola's websites. While the article says "it's hard to know if Warrior's departure is linked to Zander's," our original source later added that it's rumored Warrior and incoming CEO Greg Brown "never saw eye to eye."

Despite rumors the new, internally powered PS2 would run just $99, in Japan it's selling for the same price as the old model: ¥16,000 (US $140). Even though it's no lighter on your wallet and isn't any more svelte than the current model, it does in fact weigh less, and comes in black, white and silver. For now it debuts Nov. 22 in Japan only, but a Stateside launch is most definitely in the cards, hopefully along with that price cut. [Machine-Translated Press Release via Kotaku via Saving Progress]

iPod Touch Definitely Has No Bluetooth, So Enough Already UPDATED
The iPod Touch has been dissected by the ace mechanics at iFixit. And unless they overlooked something—actually, nevermind. There's no Bluetooth in the iPod Touch. That's it. Final. iFixit didn't mention a trace of Bluetooth and that's enough for us to call this silly rumor the result of an overzealous photoshopper who has probably already been fired (force-choked to death) by Jobs himself. Some other findings of note:
- Audio chip is identical to the iPhone's
- Samsung memory (like the iPhone's)
- Processor similar to the iPhone's
- Display is attached to the iPod with 16 screws (iPhone uses adhesive)
- Display is scratch-resistant, like iPhone
Oh yeah, and they also found that there's no freaking Bluetooth.
UPDATE 1: We're talking more to iFixit on the matter. There was a faulty consensus that their lack of report on Bluetooth implied that there was no Bluetooth. That was our mistake.
UPDATE 2: From iFixit: We're looking into it. It's hard to say because they can disguise bluetooth antenna on the PCB and the chip could be integrated into something else. I'll see what I can dig up.[ifixit]

Apple and O2 to Launch iPhone in UK Mid- to Late-October
We have received confirmation from two 100% proven sources that next Tuesday's UK-only Apple event will herald the iPhone's arrival to the United Kingdom. The first European iPhone will most probably arrive in mid- to late-October, not on November 1, as some media outlets have previously reported. Our sources are the same ones from when we broke the news of the secret meeting between Steve Jobs and Telefonica/O2's President Cesar Alierta and said Bollocks! to all the earlier rumors. Unofficially confirmed, but we stand by this one.

The rumors we posted are true: TiVo is finally getting its balls back. TiVo has confirmed with Gizmodo that TiVoToGo and multi-room viewing have returned to the new Series3 boxes—including the TiVo HD—and will be available in November. We are told that the hold up was DRM—getting the rights stuff figured out with CableCard was a hassle. But once that was solved, insiders say it took a "LONG time" to get the software to work right on the Series3 platform.
