However, a former RIAA executive and an ex-RIAA lawyer are now in head positions at the ESA and that has some people wondering if there is going to be a RIAA-style crackdown on the illegal filesharing of computer games. Some believe that this could even lead to targeting people who get pirated copies of the game solely to get around DRM. There is additional concern that the gaming industry is not big enough to fight back against RIAA-like lawsuits if indeed the same methods used by RIAA were implemented by the ESA.

iPhone 3G vs. BlackBerry Bold: First Head to Head

There are basically two camps on the year's most anticipated phone: iPhone 3G or BlackBerry Bold. They are different phones with different core audiences, which largely comes down to keyboard preferences. But Boy Genius gives us a lot to chew on anyway in the first live head-to-head (and not just the photos).
