Corsair ships Vengeance gaming mice and keyboards, procrastinating shoppers rejoice
Like UnlikeFiled in: Mouse DevicesKeyboardsCorsairVengeance K60Vengeance M60Vengeance K90Vengeance M90
Remember that Vengeance line of gaming products that Corsair outed a few months back? We'll forgive you if not, and we'll also take this opportunity to refresh your memory while affirming that the company is shipping the bulk of 'em out just in time for the holidays. The Vengeance K60 and Vengeance K90 gaming keyboards and the Vengeance M60 and Vengeance M90 laser gaming mice and all clad in aluminum, with the K Series aimed at first-person shooter loyalists and the Ms aimed at those who just generally want to be awesome. You can catch up on the nitty-gritty just after the break, but here's the bad news: the K90, K60, M90 and M60 will go for $129, $109, $79 and $69 in order of mention.

Like UnlikeFiled in: Barnes & Noble
Barnes & Noble may have doubled its tablet shipments in the fall. Having shipped over 800,000 Nook Color devices in the summer, the company was said by part suppliers speaking to Digitimes late Thursday to be delivering a combination of 1.5 million Android-based devices during the fall. About 1.1 million of those would be the new Nook Tablet, with the remaining 400,000 being the price-discounted Color.
Long-term goals would have it shipping four million to 4.1 million Nook Tablets over all 2012, though, suggesting the company might be cautious about its expectations.

iPhone 4S jailbreak: Incredible Siri hack lets you shout settings
Like UnlikeFiled in: Cell PhonesAppleiPhone 4s
We’ve seen some impressive Siri hacks already, but this one is the ultimate reason you’ll be wanting an iPhone 4S jailbreak in your life: you can now tell Siri to toggle settings, and even read out the battery life.
While iOS has a thriving app community, there’s no denying that the inability to quickly turn off settings from the homescreen is a fundamental flaw – by contrast many Android phones have these settings in the ever-present pull down notification tray.

That certainly didn't take too long. The same day that the Galaxy Nexus (and therefore Ice Cream Sandwich) made its official debut in the US, Adobe updted the Flash player for compatibility with the new Android OS.
There had been some slight worry that Adobe wouldn't update Flash all that quickly and would leave Galaxy Nexus owners out of the loop, but those fears have been addressed. Today, Adobe released an update bringing Flash to version 11.1.112.60. The update really doesn't do anything except add ICS support, although Adobe does list a few known issues to be aware of, including:
