CNN: Dad invents new baseball gadgetA logger inspired by his 10-year-old son gets bright idea for a baseball invention. CNN's Tony Harris reports.
Nokia is considering selling off its headquarters in Espoo, Finland, and then renting much of the facility back, in another attempt to cut costs as Windows Phone slowly tries to gain traction. Worth between €200-300m ($ 258-387m), according to Finnish paper Iltasanomat, the possibility has been confirmed by Nokia spokespeople but is, they insist, just one of a number of cash-saving possibilities the Finnish firm is looking at.
“We are evaluating different options for non-core parts, such as real estate holdings, and that includes the headquarters†Nokia spokesperson Maija Taimi said in a statement on the rumors. It’s unclear if any potential suitors for the building â€" and its guaranteed tenant - have been approached at this stage.
Nokia has struggled to build significant momentum with Windows Phone, and has seen several underwhelming financial quarters despite a regular tithe of around $ 250m from Microsoft in return for using the OS. The company’s new range of Windows Phone 8 devices, the Lumia 920 and Lumia 820, are expected to launch imminently, though existing owners of first-gen Lumia devices have been left behind with Windows Phone 7.8 rather than getting a full upgrade to Microsoft’s very latest version.
Smartphone sales aren’t the only string to Nokia’s bow, however. The company recently announced a deal with Oracle to provide the enterprise services company with NAVTEQ-powered mapping systems, an agreement which follows a similar contract with Amazon to power the underlying map engine of the retailer’s Kindle system.

Apple has yet to confirm that it is making an iPad mini but that hasn't stopped purported sightings of the new tablet including photos of its parts.
The pictures were taken by an unnamed source at a factory in China, according to UkrainianiPhone.com, a website that posts Apple news. They include a photo of the front panel, two shots of the back panel and a picture of LCD displays, although they may belong to a tablet other than the iPad mini, 9 to 5 Mac speculated.
The front panel, which you can see above, matches the look previous reports have suggested the iPad mini will take. It has slimmer bezel frames on its sides than the 9.7-inch iPad. UkrainianiPhone.com also lists the screen space at 7.85-inches, matching the size many have been predicting. You can also see a hole for a front camera.
iPad mini: Rumor round-up
A shot of the back panel, meanwhile, shows its exterior could be made of aluminum similar to the back of the black iPhone 5, and there also seems to be a hole for a back camera.
Another shot of the interior of the back panel hints at what the iPad mini may include. For starters, it appears the iPad mini will use Apple's new Lightning connector.
A SIM card tray and an opening in the panel also hints that Apple may offer a cellular connected version of the iPad mini. That would give Apple an advantage over Google's Nexus 7 and the 7-inch Amazon Kindle Fire HD, both of which can connect only to Wi-Fi.
This week, another report said Apple will likely send out media invites next week for the iPad mini's announcement event, which is expected to happen later this month.

Logitech’s latest universal remote, the Harmony Touch, has broken cover, and as the name implies it’s centered around a full-color touchscreen for easier channel surfing. Compatible with 225,000 devices from among 5,000 brands, the Harmony Touch has a 2.4-inch touchscreen bracketed by traditional physical controls for the best of both worlds, and supports macros for shortening multi-step processes â€" like turning on the TV, choosing source, and powering up your surround sound speakers â€" into a single tap.
Up to 50 favorite channel icons can be stored in a shortcut list, and up to fifteen devices can be registered to a single remote. Logitech uses its MyHarmony online configurator to set up the Harmony Touch itself, an easier process with a mouse, and existing Harmony remote users can log in with their account and transfer settings across to the new model.
The integrated rechargeable battery is juiced up by the supplied docking station, and the buttons are backlit for nighttime use. The remote also works directly with the
