A law allowing federal anti-terrorism agents to access information on the U.S. public without a warrant has been ruled as unconstitutional by a US judge in Washington D.C.

iPhone Price Down $200, New iPod's Introduced
Apple freaks who waited in long lines in June to be the first to own hot new iPhones may have come to regret their purchases after discovering on Wednesday that Apple was cutting the price of the devices by $200. The market wasn't too happy either, as Apple's shares on the Nasdaq Stock Market fell a few dollars Wednesday following the news. They started the day lower on Thursday but began to slowly rebound.
Those who feel they were cheated, however, may find solace in one of the new or upgraded iPods that Apple also introduced this week, including the iPod touch and revamped iPod nano.
