We’re talking about Google-branded hardware running a version of Android we haven’t yet seen. Over the next few weeks, Google Phones (most probably in early, prototype form) will flood the Mountain View campus.

Debate on procedural motion on health bill begins

WASHINGTON (AP) — A crucial first Senate vote on President Barack Obama's health care overhaul in a rare Saturday night session looms as a test of Democratic unity and the president's prestige. Democratic leaders are optimistic of success, but they need every Democrat and both independents to vote ''yes,'' and two moderates remained uncommitted ahead of the roll call, which is expected around 8 p.m. The vote will determine whether debate can go forward on Majority Leader Harry Reid's 2,074-page bill to dramatically remake the U.S

DNA mix-up kept suspected serial killer free

In Milwaukee, police say a mislabeled DNA sample made it possible for a suspected serial killer to avoid arrest for more than a decade. The man — now charged with seven murders — might have been arrested before some of the murders occurred if state officials hadn't lost his DNA sample.
