An Angry Birds plush toy, as well as two Apple iPads, will be sent to the International Space Station with two upcoming Russian space launches.

We all love owning and using our iDevices, probably a bit to much in some cases, but at the end of the day when the sun goes down there comes a point where we just want to slip under the covers and have an uninterrupted nights slumber. Depending on what apps you may have installed on your device, it could be set to push alerts for pretty much anything meaning that peaceful nights sleep could be well and truly thrown out of the window if you forget to flick that silent switch. Despite being an open mobile operating system which offers more freedom than competing platforms, Android comes with a bunch of small but nonetheless frustrating limitations. One such limitation is Gmail’s limited support for different file formats; it plays well with things like PDFs, DOCs and AVIs, but when it comes to ZIP files and other, lesser known formats such as 7z, the popular email client simply denies the user from downloading it. http://www.redmondpie.com/
