š Big iPad energy: Apple might drop a nearly 19-inch(!) folding iPad in 2027 or 2028, alongside a folding iPhone. Appleās largest tablet is about 13 inches. The pricing is under wraps, but some estimate between $2,100 and $2,500. Tagline? Appleās foldables: finally, tech that collapses under pressure just like you.

Iām way more into movies based on true stories. Real people, real drama, thatās my kind of thing. You can keep the wizards and aliens. Give me a story where something unbelievable actually happened.
I put together this list for you as proof that tech isnāt just lines of code or shiny gadgets. Itās ambition, hype, brilliance and yeah, sometimes a total train wreck. Youāre gonna want to see each one.
I am hearing more and more reports about a certain travel scam that is not making the tech sites or mainstream news.
A ātravel agentā or travel site selling fake plane tickets. You pay real cash for a flight that doesnāt actually exist, like booking a table at a restaurant that burned down in 2006.
How much a Bay Area tech trio is willing to spend on a 6% stake in the San Francisco 49ers. Vinod Khosla, Byron Deeter and Will Griffith are dropping half a billion to own a slice of the 49ers, valuing the team at over $8.5 billion. If approved, itāll be one of the priciest valuations for any sports team on the planet.
The number of Ford Expeditions and Lincoln Navigators recalled over brake issues. Apparently, Fordās version of stopping power is just hoping real hard. The recall affects 2022ā2024 models with front brake lines that might leak, reducing function. If your brake pedal suddenly feels like a soft pillow, maybe donāt test your luck.
The bounty Coinbase is offering for tips leading to the capture of the crooks who tried to extort it. When cybercriminals demanded $20 million in Bitcoin to keep stolen customer data secret, Coinbase slapped a $20 million bounty on their heads instead. Itās like Catch Me If You Can but with way more crypto and way less Leonardo DiCaprio.
The estimated value of unsold Cybertrucks collecting dust on Tesla lots. With over 10,000 cars sitting in dealer inventory, the stainless-steel behemoth is shaping up to be less āfuturistic tankā and more āElonās very expensive parking lot decor.ā Turns out the PS1-looking fever dream isnāt exactly Americaās sweetheart.
How much funding Perplexity AI is about to land, pushing its valuation to $14 billion. For context, it was $3 billion last June. So whatās the buzz? Theyāre pulling in around $100 million in annual recurring revenue and plan to launch an AI agent web browser called Comet. You could say investors are seeing stars.
U.S. viewers now watch Prime Video, with ads. Amazonās ad-supported Prime Video tier has more than a third of the country tuning in, commercials and all. 88% of them also shop on Amazon, so those pause-screen ads? Basically product placement with a buy button. Wow.
And growing as Coinbaseās market cap crashes the S&P 500 party. After nearly 13 years of crypto chaos, Coinbase is officially joining the S&P 500, replacing Discover Financial. Shares jumped 8% on the news, because apparently, being the cool new kid at Wall Streetās lunch table has its perks. Bitcoin hitting $104K probably didnāt hurt either.
