>   No trends this week - just a lot of interesting news, starting off
>   with Lex Friedman's coverage of the Netflix iPad app's newfound
>   capability to stream Watch Instantly movies to the iPhone and iPod
>   touch too. Glenn Fleishman looks at how you can now place calls
>   using Google Voice in Gmail and how Virgin Mobile has upped the
>   mobile broadband ante with an unlimited cellular data plan that
>   works with the popular MiFi portable Wi-Fi gateway. Glenn also gives
>   the blow-by-blow description of how we were forced to move all our
>   Web services to a Rackspace Cloud Server last week. Then Adam
>   examines the iWork 9.0.4 update, which isn't interesting other than
>   the way it adds EPUB export to Pages, and Tonya runs through all the
>   things you can try doing to speed up an iPhone 3G under iOS 4.
>   Notable software releases this week include MacBook Pro EFI Firmware
>   Update 1.9, Camino 2.0.4, Security Update 2010-005, GraphicConverter
>   6.7.4, and Freeway 5.5.
