HTC may develop its own processors for low-end smartphones

. HTC may be looking to follow in Samsung and Apple's footsteps in developing its own processors, according to a rumor from China Times. The Taiwanese vendor has reportedly signed a “memorandum of cooperation” with ST-Ericsson to co-develop a new dedicated chip for low-end smartphones that will come out in 2013. The joint venture will help HTC reduce its reliance on Qualcomm and NVIDIA processors, which are predominantly featured in the company's current smartphone offerings. HTC, which has seen slumping sales, focused previously on the high-end market.

Sprint reassures us that the Epic 4G Touch is receiving Ice Cream Sandwich this year

Not that we’re surprised or anything, but Sprint has announced that the Samsung Epic 4G Touch, their Galaxy S II variant, would be getting Ice Cream Sandwich this year. We pretty much expected it, alongside other high-end devices, to receive the update. Unfortunately, Sprint doesn’t tell us when, exactly, to expect it within the calendar year. Still, it’s nice to see they’re committed.

2012 KIA Rio EX 5-door Test Drive

For the past 2 weeks I've been lucky enough to test drive a new car. The first car was a 2012 Mazda Mazda 3 and this past week it was a KIA Rio EX 5-Door. I loved the KIA Optima I test drove last year, so I was excited to try the smaller, more economical Rio. Note: Click the images in this review to see a larger view.

I want to start this “review” out like I've done the other 2 test drive articles, by letting you know that this isn't going to be a super detailed vehicle review like you'd read in a car magazine or see on a car show. I don't know much about engines and don't car.
