Today, Rovio launched the next entry in the Angry Birds series, the Facebook-connected Angry Birds Friends, for iOS devices.  

The core gameplay you’ve come to know from Angry Birds has more or less remained unchanged. In Friends, though, you can play againsts your Facebook friends. Expect new levels and tournaments to go live every week, as well as daily gifts and challenges. The game also automatically syncs with whatever progress you’ve made on the Facebook version, in case you’re partial to starting a play session on your computer and finishing it on your phone on the way to the bathroom.

Angry Birds Friends is compatible with the iPhone 3GS or later, iPod Touch third generation or later, and all iPad models. You can download it from the App Store. An Android version is also available in the Google Play Store.

Boox Go 6 (Gen II) e-reader with stylus

Boox has launched the Go 6 (Gen II), its new 6-inch E Ink reader and the successor to the 2024 Boox Go 6. The new model keeps the small, lightweight format that made the original popular, but adds one major upgrade in the form of note-taking support.

The Go 6 (Gen II) is now available for pre-order through the official Boox shop for $199.99, with shipping expected to begin around June 17. It is still very much a compact travel e-reader, but the stylus support gives it a bit more flexibility than the 2024 model.

iPad

AT&T has introduced a new wireless offering called Unlimited Day Pass, giving eligible iPad users access to 24 hours of unlimited cellular data for a flat daily fee of $3 - even if they are not AT&T customers. The new service is designed for Wi-Fi + Cellular iPad models with eSIM support and marks one of the first major attempts by a U.S. carrier to offer truly on-demand tablet connectivity without contracts, subscriptions, or long-term commitments.

According to AT&T, the first Unlimited Day Pass is free for customers, limited to one iPad per person. After that, users can purchase additional passes directly from their iPad using a debit or credit card. The company says activation can be completed directly through the iPad’s settings menu without requiring an app or even an active Wi-Fi connection. Users simply need to open the Settings app, navigate to Cellular Data, and add the AT&T Unlimited Day Pass. Once activated, the 24-hour unlimited data session begins shortly afterward.

If you have been holding off on getting a Kindle Scribe because of the price, Amazon just gave you a reason to reconsider. The Kindle Scribe without Front Light is now available for purchase on Amazon for $429.99, making it $70 cheaper than the standard Kindle Scribe.

Amazon first announced this model back in 2025, and it has finally arrived. However, the one catch is right there in the name. There is no front light, which means reading or writing in dim environments will be trickier than on the pricier model.
