TidBITS#941/18-Aug-08
=====================
  Issue link: <http://db.tidbits.com/issue/941>

  It's editor versus editor at TidBITS, as Adam and Glenn square off
  over Eye-Fi wireless SD memory cards, with Adam excoriating the
  Eye-Fi Share and Glenn waxing rhapsodic about its Eye-Fi Explore big
  brother. Also in digital photography, readers offer great
  suggestions for storing and protecting photos while traveling, in
  response to Adam's article last week. In the news, Best Buy plans to
  sell the iPhone in the United States, becoming the only outlet other
  than AT&T and Apple; former Apple general counsel Nancy Heinen
  settles with the SEC over options backdating; and Microsoft releases
  security and performance updates to Office 2008 and Office 2004. In
  the Watchlist, we glance at releases of iPhone 2.0.2, Inquisitor
  3.2, WireTap Anywhere 1.0.1, TextExpander 2.4, and Airfoil for
  Windows 2.6.
