Sony's breached
PlayStation Network may well be offline longer than the company had expected, according to a Sony executive.
In a post on Sony's PlayStation.Blog late yesterday, Patrick Seybold, senior director of corporate
communications and social media for the company, said Sony was still
performing security checks on the system and that it might not be back
up and running in the originally announced timeframe. Part of the
problem, Seybold said, has been the hitherto unknown size of a breach of the Sony Online Entertainment gaming network, discovered during Sony's investigation into the PlayStation intrusion.

Nvidia, an emerging power in the world of ARM processors for smartphones and
tablets, has published a demonstration game called Glowball the company says shows what can be achieved with its quad-core Kal-El mobile processor project.
In the demo, an internally lit ball rolls around a playing board. With "dynamic lighting,"
shapes on the ball's exterior casting shadows on stacked barrels,
lurking jack-in-the-boxes, hanging rugs, and a creepy clown face. The
game's physics engine is wired into the tablet's accelerometer to
determine how the ball rolls, the rugs hang, and the barrels tumble.
