Warning: SPOILERS for Tony Stark: Iron Man #18 The future of Tony Stark has never seemed less certain, with his secret brother becoming Iron Man 2020 in the new year. But the biggest change in the Stark family isn’t in Tony’s life, but that of his parents… now that Howard and Maria Stark have returned from the dead in Marvel Comics. The deceased Starks are practically household names thanks to the Iron Man and Avengers movies of the MCU, where Howard Stark played a major role since the first Captain America movie....

The ruling could impact a wide range of products with certain audio features, like the Nest Hub, Nest Wi-Fi point and Pixel smartphones. Google suggested the ban will not impact the sale or importation of its products. However, Sonos’ lawyer called the case an “across the board win” for Sonos and made clear the company expects Google to start paying royalties for the use of its patented technology. “There is a possibility that Google will be able to degrade or eliminate product features in a way that circumvents the importation ban that the ITC has imposed,” Sonos Chief Legal Officer Eddie Lazarus said in a statement....

However, with a release of iPods this big looming (They booked Moscone West?!), it would make sense that iTunes would get an upgrade. How big an upgrade? At least a point upgrade to cover the new hardware…so at the low end, we are looking at a bug-fix upgrade: 7....

Alongside iPad Pro, Apple revealed a new tool to accompany the device, the Apple Pencil.

Now Ive, Apple’s Chief Design Officer, has sat down with Wallpaper Magazine and The Telegraph to discuss his inspiration to make Apple Pencil…...

Steven Spielberg has built a career on directing quality films, but easily one of his most beloved is 1993’s Jurassic Park, the epic tale of a prototype dinosaur theme park where things go horribly wrong in just about every possible way. Spielberg himself would return in 1997 to direct first JP sequel The Lost World, which while nowhere near as popular as the original, still has its fans. Joe Johnston took over the franchise with 2001’s Jurassic Park III, which stands out for most as the low-point of the original trilogy....

The nearly constant stream of rumors, speculation, and entertaining fan theories surrounding the Justice League and Green Lanterns of the DC Extended Universe is hard to ignore, and even harder to resist getting swept into. And that doesn’t just go for the fans, either. As the rumor mill of whether or not Justice League will debut the new live action Green Lantern - and which version it should be - continues to heat up, the only other absent member of the DC super-team is taking the opportunity to get in on the fun....

The past week has shown that public awareness of the “Snyder Cut” of Justice League is swiftly increasing. Zack Snyder stepped down from Justice League following a family tragedy, with massive reshoots being implemented on the film. As the two-year mark for the release of the movie nears, the ongoing campaign for Snyder’s original cut of Justice League hasn’t slowed down. In fact, there are now unambiguous signals that the notion of there being a completely different version of the superhero ensemble is rapidly gaining more mainstream attention....

. It appears those who ordered the LTE iPad minis late last night in the U.S. will start receiving theirs about Nov. 23, according to what we heard from a number of early buyers. Orders placed overseas are generally less specific. Apple notes only LTE models will ship “mid-November” in its advertising: Nov. 23 is Black Friday, for those who keep track of such things.

First, Fortune follows the Apple Sanity Board (oxymoron?)who have been tallying order numbers from iPads purchased today. They’ve figured that between the start of sales at 8:30am ET until 10:30am ET, 51,000 orders were taken. While “50,000 iPads sold in two hours” makes a good headline, there were probably a few iPods and Macs sold during that time period as well. Apple receives 15,000 orders on a normal day. Silicon Alley Insider thinks 20,000/hour are selling, which from the above, seem pretty reasonable....

Apple today removed the October 14 release date for the iPhone 4S from its site. Apple now says it will be a week or two before most US and overseas customers get the iPhone 4S, starting at $199 for the 16GB version. Carriers say waits could be as long as a month. AT&T, Sprint Nextel and Verizon say it could take even longer to get units in buyers’ hands. The demand for the phone — announced just a day before Apple cofounder Steve Jobs died at 56 last week — seems to have taken every one by surprise....

O-Film was one of three companies making triple-lens camera modules for Apple, alongside LG InnoTek and Sharp … Background O-Film was first reported to have become an Apple supplier early last year. A subsequent report said that LG Innotek was the lead supplier, with O-Film and Sharp as secondary ones.
