* The Wall Street Journal is reporting that [Apple and Cingular will partner up][1], with Cingular providing service for Apple's new "iPhone" device which is widely rumored to be announced at Macworld. MSM tends not to go in for rumors, but then again you just never know do you?

* Microsoft has sent out some contradictory messages over the last few months about BluRay/HD-DVD and Vista, but now says, [according the the Times UK][5], "a substantial number of PCs running the new version of Windows operating system will not be able to play high-quality DVDs." Though that isn't really Microsoft's fault, blame Hollywood and an its DRM love affair.

* Yahoo! has [purchased][4] the blog tracking site MyBlogLog for an undisclosed amount. Rumors of the purchase surfaced way back in November, but today it appears to be official.

* As we [mentioned last week][2], a Brazilian Judge ordered Google to shut down YouTube. Naturally that isn't going to happen, but as [reported by Reuters][3] and several commenters on our original story, Brazilian ISPs began blocking access to YouTube on Monday.
