NTT DoCoMo looks to sell handheld game manufacturers on 3G
Japanese telecom operator NTT DoCoMo is apparently in talks with heretofore unnamed manufacturers to get its 3G modules embedded in handheld game consoles. "We are discussing this with various players," said company president Ryuji Yamada. The Wall Street Journal makes an educated guess that Nintendo might be one of the "players" (or "ballers," if you will), which sounds pretty good to us: we know that the upcoming Nintendo 3DS handheld is still being tweaked, and including 3G would be a pretty big deal

FCC task force seeks to squash ‘bill shock,’ give you the 411 on impending overages
Call us crazy, but it seems as if the FCC has been earning its keep of late, and the toiling continues today with an effort meant to address " bill shock ." For those unaware, bill shock is a phenomena on par with bitter beer face in terms of significance, and it typically occurs when you accidentally roam internationally, text well beyond your monthly limit or burn through your minutes within the first week of your billing period.

They just sneak in to work Illegal aliens long suspected of carrying drugs from Mexico now also sell them ?
Undercover surveillance at a midtown apartment complex led to the seizure of heroin and methamphetamine and the arrests of three illegal immigrants Wednesday, a Tucson police spokesman said.
Police seized a pound of heroin, worth $16,000; 1. 5 pounds of meth, worth $18,000; two handguns; three rifles; an undisclosed amount of cash and drug paraphernalia at the apartment,Two of the men arrested – Oscar Alfredo Sillas-Figueroa, 29, and Pedro Martinez-Salaz, 18 – were booked into the Pima County Jail on Thursday, a jail clerk said.
Martinez-Salaz was charged with possession of a narcotic drug for sale, possession of a dangerous drug for sale and possession of drug paraphernalia, the clerk said. Sillas-Figueroa received the same charges as well as one for possession of a narcotic drug for transport, she said.
Both are held without bond because of their immigration status, she said.
The third person arrested, a 17-year-old, was booked into the Pima County Juvenile Court Center, Hopffer said. His name was not released because he is a juvenile.
The investigation that led to the apartment in the 4100 block of East Fairmount Street began in August, Hopffer said. All three suspects lived there, he said.
Although the bust was not record-breaking, it illustrates a nexus of new trends in local drug dealing, Lt. Kelly Lane of the Counter Narcotics Alliance said.
There has been a resurgence of heroin sales in the past six months, he said. “We’re starting to see heroin making a comeback at the street level in terms of popularity,” he said.
Different hard drugs are now being sold at the same location, Lane said. “It used to be that there were specialities. Now you can get several things in one place,” he said. Lane said that trend started about a year ago.
Drugs also are being sold locally in larger amounts, he said. Previously, drugs in large quantities were found being moved through town, instead of being sold for local use.
Illegal immigrants, long suspected of carrying drugs north from Mexico, are now selling drugs in increasing numbers, Lane said.
