Kelly Fiveash shares some details about Mozilla’s upcoming Firefox 3.6 browser release.

“Mozilla has delayed the release of Firefox 3.6 until the first quarter of 2010. The outfit had been promising to deliver the next iteration of its celebrated browser before the decade was out. However, despite spinning out no less than five betas of Firefox 3.6, the final version of the browser won’t ship until next year.”

Rachel King offers her thoughts on a rumoured electronic reader product from Lenovo.

“At this rate, e-book readers will be the gadget of 2010, with rumours buzzing that laptop-maker Lenovo will also be developing an electronic reader of its own soon. Of course, there hasn’t been anything confirmed, but there aren’t any denials either. Hopefully, we’ll see some concrete information soon. Personally, I think the more e-readers out there the better. It makes the market more competitive, pushing manufacturers to develop more features and, most importantly, bring the currently exorbitant prices down.”
