To say we’ve been patiently waiting for the Xoom’s promised 4G upgrade would certainly be an understatement. It looks like those of you counting on blistering speeds this summer are flat out of luck, as the LTE overhaul apparently won’t begin until fall. Droid-Life‘s got a snap of a seemingly official Verizon memo, which alleges that the FCC-espied gratis upgrade will apparently land sometime in September.

Is today April Fool’s Day? Canon has issued a press release for a new product called the Canon X Mark I Mouse Lite. It is basically a mouse, calculator and keypad all in one device. Why does this press release appear to be a joke to us? Well, doesn’t every computer in the world already have a calculator application built-in and available for free? Isn’t this a bit redundant? This mouse also looks like it won’t be too comfortable and certainly won’t win any awards for ergonomics. The Canon X Mark I Mouse Lite will have an estimated selling price of $59.99 and is expected to become available in August. For $60 that puts it up there even if it does use Bluetooth.
