Opinion: Remains of the Day: Square deal
Apple dispatches Eddy Cue to check in with Foursquare, Brazil offers the only iPhone you'll ever see running Android, and we think one CEO's a little obsessed with the Apple TV--and it's not Tim Cook. The remainders for yesterday, Tuesday, December 18, 2012 are changing the channel.

Opinion: Remains of the Day: Rumor, rumor on the wall
Begun, these iPhone rumors have. Elsewhere, Apple's radio service isn't getting play time from record labels, Eric Schmidt's got a head-scratcher, and Apple's getting greener (and not with envy). The remainders for Wednesday, December 5, 2012 are the fairest of them all.
