Robopets, the Nook and Windows 7

Posted by: Jane Douglas

Among the top stories in tech news this week was the unveiling of the Nook, the promising first e-book reader from US bookseller Barnes & Noble.

It has a small colour touchscreen below the more familiar greyscale e-ink display. Which makes it not entirely unlike (though shorter) than the little-known Alex by Spring Design.

Research on robopets and other technological innovations to help the future elderly also went down a treat. Then there was the Windows 7 launch, of course, with PC World calling it the “fastest selling operating system" in its history.

And following on from last week’s ‘naked’ scanners kerfuffle comes word that a children's rights group has successfully objected to kids being scanned by the X-ray security devices.

The shark that is Tech & Gadgets, meanwhile, never stops swimming:
