Eyes on Iran, lines for iPhone, jury award
The re-election of Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad over challenger Mir Hussein Moussavi sparked demonstrations, and coverage of the protests led to the ouster of Western journalists.

Hands on: AMD's new flagship Phenom II CPU
As was increasingly expected, AMD has officially updated its Phenom II processor line with two new, slightly faster CPUs. The unlocked 3.2 GHz Phenom II X4 955 Black Edition (about US$245) supports overclocking and is the company's fastest yet, while the Phenom II X4 945 (about $225) is clock-locked at 3 GHz.
