This week, we mentioned a little tiny development called the iPhone 3G S. And a few new MacBooks. But it wasn't all about what Apple announced--or didn't announce--at WWDC 2009. Here are just a select few of the other stories we had our gadget-trained eyes on.

• Pulpy book vs. Kindle alternative: See which won the showdown.

• Speaking of Kindle, we looked inside the DX.

• What's little, green, and sounds like the USS Enterprise entering warp speed? Find out here.

• Raindrops on roses, and whiskers on kittens...these are a few of Bonnie Cha's favorite things. Oh, and multitasking and Synergy on the Pre.

• We can finally say it: RIP analog TV.

• Eric Franklin had a talk with his fiancee--and then did a little PS3 power-consumption experiment.

• Samsung heated up another phone for sun worshippers.

• A former electronics retail employee let us in on a few good secrets.

• How'd you sleep last night? The Zeo can tell you.
