Since the release of the Apple iPad recently, people began measuring the capacity of the device. One particular and dominant complaint about the Apple iPad is its seemingly weak Wifi capability. There is currently a running thread on the Apple.com website forum about a topic entitled ‘ Weak Wifi ‘ for iPad Owners to discuss the solutions to the said problem as well. Some quotes from users who are experiencing an Apple iPad Weak Wifi problem: “Signal is weak, downloading anything is painfully slow and it will drop the signal and go offline every 5-10 minutes,” “It will work fine for a while, but show a low signal. Then, after a few minutes of use, my connection will drop completely and I will have to reset my wi-fi radio.” On a positive note, Apple will be releasing a new 4.0 Operating System for the Apple iPod Touch, Apple iPhone 3G and the Apple iPad included.

$16.4M Fine Issued for Toyota Motors

Federal safety regulators said Monday that they intend to fine Toyota Motor $16.4 million for for failing to disclose problems with sticky accelerator pedals to consumers at an early time. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration disclosed that Toyota was at fault in failing to disclose the problems earlier, causing a 4-month delay in informing Toyota car owners of the massive recall. Toyota knew in September that it had a problem with accelerator pedals that required fixing, but failed to recall 2.3 million vehicles until January. The $16.375 million penalty is the maximum NHTSA can levy under law. Congress increased the penalties in 2000. Previously, its largest fine was $1 million against General Motors in 2004 for failing to disclose a defect with windshield wipers in 600,000 vehicles for more than two years. Toyota could face more fines in the long run.
