I considered the latest (week round-up) news to be what some people want, so I’ve done it again. Not like the Britney Spears song but close it.

- The past week PayPal introduced a new service that gives the users the possibility to transfer funds via a mobile phone and text messages (SMS). The best opinion I’ve read was a comment of the news at slashdot, so good that I’ll even quote it:

I signed up for PayPal when they first started. They started out as a service for beaming payments between Palm Pilots. You put money into your PayPal account from your credit card or bank account. Then you’d sync your Palm with your PayPal account and you could beam money (via IR) to/from other peoples’ Palms. And, as a secondary feature, you could transfer money to other people’s accounts on the web site too.

Paypal is going back to the roots!

- Dell bought Allienware, interesting. A great company that makes stylish PCs for games being bought by one of the main PC makers in the world = a small player being eat. Read an interview with Mark Vena - Alienware’s vice president of marketing - for full facts and more info.

- 3 projects got delayed: Windows Vista, PS3 and and HD-DVD - nice article by i4u

- There were also a couple of vulnerabilities found on Internet Explorer 7 Beta 2, I remember reading about 3, some nastier than others.
