The Mini DisplayPort to HDMI Adapter Now Has Digital Audio [Adapters]
There isn't a whole lot to explain, other than the fact that the adapter is now basically set to deliver full audio quality to the video content played back on your Mac, and all through one HDMI cable.

Spotify Adds Offline Music Caching to Its Desktop Player, Makes iTunes Look Prudish [Software]
The feature, which lets users designate any or all of their content to be available offline, is only available to the £9.99/month or £120/year premium subscribers, but effectively hands them unlimited music, available at all times, for a flat fee. The mobile app is still the showstopper here—we've seen a few all-you-can-eat DRM music services before—but, you know, still, insult to injury. Our only consolation? Spotify thinks they can launch in the US before the end of the year, though I'll be eager to see if they can get as cozy a licensing deal as they found in the UK. [Techcrunch]

Why is Panasonic the First to Invent a Two-Way Iron? [Iron]

Best of all, Panasonic only charges $50 for this bit of ingenuity. [Amazon]
