Motorola, Inc. (NYSE: MOT), the global leader in Bluetooth wireless accessories, today announced U.S. availability for its ROKR series of portable speakers that keep consumers connected to their music and their calls virtually anywhere.

Known as a Trust Extension Device (TED), the TED consists of software loaded onto a portable device, such as a USB memory stick or a mobile phone. It is able to minimise the risk associated with performing transactions in untrusted and unknown computing environments.

A report in the open access journal BioMedical Engineering OnLine refutes claims that portable music players, such as Apple's iPod, interfere with cardiac pacemakers.

Canon U.S.A., Inc., will showcase the versatility and usability of its current line of advanced portable and general digital radiography (DR) systems and solutions at the 2007 Radiological Society of North America Annual Meeting (RSNA 2007), taking place at McCormick Place in the South Building – Hall A in booth # 3311 (November 25 – 29).
