Earlier this year, Verizon announced some new 3G prepaid plans for $ 60 and $ 70 dollars that offered 500MB and 2GB of data, respectively. Now, it looks like the company has silently bumped those allotments up to 2GB and 4GB without touching the price. Android Central reports that the changes go into effect immediately for those with existing plans, but new customers won’t get hold of the new rates until June 6th.

It’s a nice bump, but you can probably find lower prices and higher caps elsewhere, although your best option will depend on the coverage in your area. But in the future, as more and more of Verizon’s traffic gets pushed onto its newer LTE network, we expect the company to keep milking its existing 3G infrastructure with…

That didn’t take long — just days after its first test fire, the Liberator, a 3D-printed pistol designed by Defense Distributed founder Cody Wilson, has caught the attention of the federal government. It’s hardly a surprise: the arm’s blueprints were downloaded more than 100,000 times since going live on DefCAD this week. It’s not the amount of downloads that’s causing trouble, though, it’s who is downloading them. In a letter from the US State Department, Wilson was told that it’s a violation of the International Traffic in Arms Regulations to “export any defense article or technical data for which a license or written approval is required without first obtaining the required authorization from the DDTC (Directorate of Defense Trade Controls).”

The letter goes on to explain that these downloads legally count as exports under the law, telling Wilson to remove the plans from public access immediately. “That might be an impossible standard,” Wilson told Forbes. “But we’ll do our part to remove it from our servers.” As it turns out, most of the gun’s downloads were served via Mega, making full removal near impossible. Still, Wilson seems optimistic about the situation, explaining to Forbes that conversation will help mold the discussion on 3D printed weaponry. “Is this a workable regulatory regime? Can there be defense trade control in the era of the internet and 3D printing?” We’re looking forward to discovering the answer ourselves.

At a recent design day event in Norway, Windows Phone design studio general manager Albert Shum and Todd Simmons, creative director at Wolff Olins, held a talk about “re-imagining” Microsoft. After switching its Windows, Office, and Microsoft brand logos last year, it appears the company has some additional plans for Bing, Skype, Yammer, and Xbox. Simmons revealed a concept video from two years ago of how Microsoft looked to rebrand its key products. Part of the video includes a new Bing logo that looks very similar to a paper airplane.

At first it seems the clip is simply an old concept, like similar ones Microsoft has experimented with previously, but later in the presentation Simmons reveals design work for the same Bing logo and…

In addition to the dour news that Verizon will be strictly enforcing a 24-month upgrade cycle, the company is extending a small olive branch. Customers who want to get a new phone before their contract is up (or, presumably, anytime) will be able to do so without paying the full device cost up front. Instead, Verizon will let consumers sign up for a “Device Payment Plan” that will break up the full retail price into monthly payments over the course of a year. A Verizon spokesperson tells The Verge that smartphones and tablets costing more than $ 349.99 will be eligible, but there’s also a $ 24 “finance charge, billed at $ 2 each month.”

The plan was originally leaked by Droid-Life earlier today, and it’s mainly an extension of a program…

Microsoft is announcing today that is has sold its IPTV business, Mediaroom, to Ericsson. The software giant says Ericsson will continue to invest in the Mediaroom platform that is currently used by 22 million set-top boxes in 21 countries around the world. Microsoft’s announcement means that customers of AT&T’s U-Verse and other Mediaroom set-top boxes will be reliant on Ericsson to provide future functionality and software updates.

Ericsson and Microsoft have not yet disclosed terms of the sale, but Ericsson’s acquisition appears to be part of an effort by Microsoft to focus on its Xbox console and brand for TV. The sale had been recently rumored, and Microsoft’s focus on Xbox for entertainment apps has been clear over the past 18…

After spending a week relaxing in the Cumbrian countryside, EE’s back on the roadway, bringing its 4G LTE network to some relatively more inhabited areas. The business has actually revealed 13 additional areas it’s finish with high-speed protection today: Bradford, Bingley, Doncaster, Dudley, Harpenden, Leicester, Lichfield, Loughborough, Luton, Reviewing, Shipley, St Albans and West Bromwich. This brings the overall lot of regions under the 4G umbrella to 50, which EE claims, coincidentally, covers 50 percent of UK residents. A higher June rollout target has actually also been set– switch-flipping is prepared in 30 additional towns and cities prior to the end of that (hopefully) summer season month. EE is definitely rushing to get as much protection as feasible, along with your business, prior to any of the other players get a possibility to join the 4G club. Oh, and if it’s glossy brand-new phones you’re after, bear in mind Galaxy S 4 pre-orders are live on EE’s website today.

T-Mobile must not want to await a unique occasion to lure consumers with its doors: it simply launched its spruced up, distinctly UnCarrier-like plans a couple of days early. As became clearer this weekend, limitless voice, text and standard data are now things you can take for given on Magenta’s network. It’s only the cap on throttle-free information that figures out the amount of you pay: rates offered with T-Mobile itself begin at $ 50 for a fundamental 500MB of on-line use and climb in steady 2GB increments that each cost an extra $ 10 per month, up to a full of 12.5 GB for $ 110. You can still get really unlimited service if you desire, for $ 70– although you’ll need to bolt on a separate hotspot plan that the capped tiers get free of charge. Expenses at resellers are anticipated to run slightly greater, and it’s still clear that T-Mobile is boldy courting those of us who see internet access as the very main reason to have a smartphone in the first location.
