Amazon Officially First To Drop Major DRM: Sony the Fourth and Final Big Label Onboard
Less than a week after it came out Sony BMG was planning to sell music not loaded down with copyright protection, they're officially selling DRM-free MP3s through Amazon's MP3 store later this month, making it the first store to carry DRM-free music from all four major labels. UPDATE: Regarding the lack of numbers in the press release, we've been told Sony BMG's "entire digital catalog" will be available later this month—still working on more details. More »

Dell Latitude XT Tablet PC Gets Official At Under 4 Pounds With Capacitive Touch
Dell's Latitude XT 12.1-inch convertible Tablet PC is finally official, and it's being paraded as the world's "only sub-four-pound 12.1-inch convertible tablet" with capacitive touch capability—meaning it'll sense your finger (sorry, only one) without any pressure at all. Also on the touchy-feely side, it's got palm rejection, a no-battery pen eraser and Dell says its response times smoke Lenovo's X61T. The 3.57-pounder is available next month starting at $2499 with Core 2 Solo or Duo options and the choice of a sweet 64GB SSD or 120GB HDD. And the whole presser and spec sheet: More »

There's a lot to digest in Newsweek's seven-page all-out feature. Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos sums it up: "This isn't a device, it's a service." Kindle starts shipping tomorrow for $399 and is "a perpetually connected Internet device" running off of EV-DO—it calls the service "Whispernet." It's totally computer independent: You browse for books (88,000 at launch) and buy them in a "one-touch process," it comes with a personal Kindle email address and it can browse the regular internet—keyboard sounds useful now, doesn't it?

Zune 2 and Flash Zune Official
The next-generation Zune has just been announced, coming at you with a price tag (which we already saw) of $249 for the 80GB hard drive model and $149/$199 for the 4GB and 8GB flash-based models respectively. The new features in all models, which were leaked early, are wireless syncing with your computer automatically when you're in Wi-Fi range—something users have been clamoring for since even before the first Zune—as well as videos in the Zune Marketplace and new music, some of which are DRM-free. The Zune Pad is actually touch sensitive, much like the iPod's Click Wheel.
We're live-updating as we find out more after the jump.

In the hot summer months, rumor was that the critically acclaimed BlackBerry Curve was coming to T-Mobile—and unlike the AT&T "exclusive" edition, the T-Mo one would have Wi-Fi. Last week, Jason Chen reported that the Curve would be equipped with T-Mobile's Hotspot @Home for unlimited Wi-Fi calling at home or in Starbucks. Chen also posted that the 8320 Curve would cost $249 with a 2-year contract. You got the news. All that remains is to tell you that it's living up to its promise so far. (Final press release after the jump.)

Palm Fesses Up to Treo 500
We've seen enough legit-looking pictures to know the Palm 500v was real, but now we really know that it's real because Palm has confirmed the product. Coming in "glacier white" and "charcoal black" as we reported earlier, the new WM6 Palm will abandon touchscreen in favor of a Blackberry-style setup along with full QWERTY.
Of course the device is 3G and will feature SMS, IM and push email. A 2MP camera will support pictures and video, while 150MB of internal memory can be expanded through a microSD slot. And yes, there's Bluetooth. Vodafone will launch the first units in October and Palm is describing it as a premium product that will still be free with contract on most carriers. I've officially gone from hating this device to looking forward to its promise. What about you? [pocketlint]

Latest by ctettleton: I think a lot of y'all are missing the point here: this is Palm's foray into a lower-end market. There's no reason to expect this device, at this price point, to have all the features the top-of-the-line Treos don't have. more »

Palm to Release "New Category of Mobile Devices"
Ah, Palm's rumored groundbreaking gadget, dubbed by fanboys as "Hawk", after Palm-founder Jeff Hawkins. We knew the time, and the place, and maybe even had a hint at the device being a UMPC-ish thing. But had no proof. Until this little press release hit the wires. More »
