o Microsoft Asks European Court to
Suspend Antitrust Ruling
Luxembourg -- Microsoft appeared before the European Court of
First Instance on Thursday and asked for the suspension of the EU's
recent antitrust ruling against the U.S.-based software giant.
Microsoft lawyers argued that complying with the ruling and sharing
software codes with its competitors in Europe would do
"irreversible" harm to the company and asked the court to suspend
the ruling pending its appeal. "The insights revealed will be
revealed forever, regardless of contractual safeguards," Microsoft
lawyer Ian Forrester told the Court. "The bell once rung cannot be
un-rung." Microsoft also argued that the early implementation of the
ruling was not necessary to protect competitors. In March, the
European Commission ruled that Microsoft had violated EU antitrust
laws and ordered the company to pay a record fine of $600 million,
provide rivals with software codes and offer a version of Windows
without Media Player. Microsoft is scheduled to appear in court
again on Friday.

o Senate
Postpones Vote on Controversial File-Sharing Ban
Washington -- The U.S. Senate has postponed a vote on a
controversial copyright bill scheduled for Thursday, the "Induce
Act," which would effectively ban peer-to-peer file-sharing networks
and most any technology that could be used to "induce" users to
commit copyright infringement. In recent weeks, the Senate has heard
opposition to the proposed legislation voiced by groups including
The American Conservative Union, National Taxpayers Union, Public
Knowledge and the Electronic Frontier Foundation.

Publisher Jamdat Raises $88.8 Million in IPO
Los Angeles -- Mobile game publisher Jamdat Mobile saw its shares

o Nintendo:
Game Boy Advance SP Sales Up 70% Since Price Cut
Redmond, Wash. -- Nintendo of America said on Thursday that,
since slashing the price of its Game Boy Advance SP handheld to $79
on Sept. 2, the device has seen sales jump 70%. The company also
announced that its "Pokemon FireRed" and "Pokemon LeafGreen" titles
for the device have combined sold more than a million units since
their release on Sept. 7. Nintendo credits the success of the
Pokemon titles partly to the new Game Boy Advance Wireless Adapter,
which contains wireless communication technology from Austin,
Texas-based Freescale Semiconductor, that lets players trade and
battle their Pokemon characters and instant message one another.

HBO's "Spawn" and "Higglytown Heroes" for The Disney Channel.

Networks Add Wi-Fi Service to Internet-Connected Jukeboxes
Las Vegas -- Ecast, a maker of Internet-connected digital jukeboxes
installed in bars and restaurants, announced on Thursday that it has
partnered with Wi-Fi network provider Pronto Networks to offer
wireless Internet access through its jukeboxes. The Ecast Unplugged
service will allow bar and restaurant patrons at locations with

o Briefly Noted: (Irvine,
Calif.) Japanese electronics firm Toshiba has announced that it will
begin mass producing 0.85-inch hard drives for consumer electronics
by the end of the year. Although the capacity of the drives has not
yet been decided, they will be even smaller than the 1.8-inch drives
Toshiba makes for Apple's iPod and its own Gigabeat players. The
company said the new drives will consume half the power and be able
to withstand much greater impacts than their larger predecessors.
Toshiba also announced a new DVD-R disc that supports Content
Protection for Recordable Media (CPRM), a digital rights management
standard that allows copy-once recording of scrambled digital TV
broadcasts. To record programs in the DVD-VR format, the 4.7GB discs
must be used in tandem with a digital video recorder that supports
CPRM as well.

product to be released alongside the "Star Wars: Episode III" game
on May 5, 2005. Miami-based Intec said these controllers will
feature "new video game technologies."

(San Francisco) Wired News on Thursday reported on "Debate
Facts," an Internet rapid-response effort organized by the Bush
campaign to rebut any challenges or misstatements made by Democrat
John Kerry during tonight's presidential debate. Debate Facts will
provide a live feed to about 5,000 conservative blogs, as well as to
the traditional news media. "Our rapid-response effort is based on
the premise that no attack or no misstatement will go unchallenged,"
Debate Facts director Michael Turk told Wired News. Other than live
commentary on Kerry's campaign blog, it appears that the official
Democratic online commentary on the debate will come in the form of
an email sent once the debate concludes.
