Yesterday, we heard that a California Supreme Court judge has ruled that early-termination fees on cell phone contracts are illegal. This is HUGE. Contracts and early-termination fees basically define the cell phone industry in the United States. Could we be headed for a major change if this decision holds?
By locking consumers into 1 to 2-year contracts with an early-termination fee tacked on, carriers are able to guarantee a certain amount of revenue from their subscribers. By doing this, they are able to offer subsidies on the actual hardware. This is why the iPhone 3G is only $199, but requires a 2-year contract.
This is completely different from Europe and other markets where consumers pay full price for their hardware, but are not forced to sign any contracts.
There will be appeals by the cell carriers, but if this holds, what could happen?
TMZ's got the gaming scoop of the century. The end of hardcore gaming is nigh. Ms. Product Pusher herself, Oprah Winfrey, bought a Wii at a Wal-Mart in Hawaii recently. How does this equal death to hardcore? Well, you can bet Oprah will soon be extolling the incredible health and family-fun virtues associated with owning a Nintendo Wii after which every housewife desperate to fulfill the next Oprah product prophecy will head to a Gamestop and buy up all the Nintendo they can get their mits on.
In what economists have not ever called The Oprah Effect, that increased demand will trickle down to all corners of society by way of gift-giving aunts and misguided girlfriends who buy up solely Nintendo products forcing Microsoft and Sony completely out of business, leaving Carnival Games 3 the hottest holiday item in 2009.
It is written. Deal.

According to the folks at Kotaku, employees at some of the bigger retail stores in Australia are saying that Aussies are going to be stuck with a fat bill if they're interested in getting the full Rock Band experience. The US bundle, which includes a mic, guitar, drums, and the game is going to run state-siders $160. But down under, they're going to get reemed as the game is not bundled to anything and the peripherals are mostly sold separately. So, let's do some math, shall we?
The White Knight Two was unveiled by Virgin Galactic at an airstrip just north of Los Angeles today. Attending the ceremony to celebrate were the plane's designer Burt Rutan and the plane's financier, Virgin owner and crazy genius Richard Branson.
The 4-engine jet with its singular wing design is the world's longest all carbon-fiber airplane and Branson calls it "one of the most beautiful and extraordinary aviation vehicles ever developed."
It also has the sexiest art for any space traveling vessel, ever (see right.)
Ubisoft's Alain Corre told gamesindustry.biz recently that Red Steel 2 will definitely utilize the improved sensitivity of the Wii Motion Plus to enhance sabre strikes in the game among other things.
He also said: "The Red Steel brand is strong — I think we released it on year one, and that people understood that it was a first try on new technology, technology that wasn't completely finished. But Red Steel is still selling well — at a lower price of course, but still it's in the top 30 or 40 in every country on Wii."
Red Steel 2 is an exclusive Wii first person action/adventure game developed by French juggernaut Ubisoft. There is currently no release date.
