POPSDeaf Jam Determined to bring the deaf and hard-of hearing community into the music world, D-PAN has further partnered with the University of Michigan's College of Engineering. The university is championing ways to apply new wireless technology that will aid the deaf and hard-of-hearing community in a live concert setting, and augment their capacity to "feel" the music. Forbes has his eyes on the hearing-centric music festivals. "I would love to see myself and other deaf artists going out performing on stage. Like at Lollapalooza.

POPSMTV To Shoot 20th Season Of The Real World OK, so it's not actually the 20th anniversary, considering that The Real World only began airing in 1992. Still, this forthcoming milestone provokes a number of reactions: 1) Does anyone really care about this franchise anymore? Fewer and fewer viewers seem to. But it's hardly surprising that Viacom green-lighted another season -- after all, it's still one of MTV's top-rated shows. Or to put it another way, much of the rest of the network's roster is really struggling. 2) Wow, reality programming is getting long in the tooth. But before you dismiss it completely, check out this defense of the genre from The Atlantic Monthly (www.theatlantic.com/doc/200705/reality-tv). 3) Congratulations thirtysomethings -- you're officially old! - Louis Hau

POPSPogue's iPhone FAQ Mossberg, schmossberg. I found David Pogue's video review of the iPhone yesterday and FAQ today a bit clearer and more useful. Amazingly, after the nauseatingly enormous pile of stories about the iPhone that I've already read, I'd still never heard the answer to the question of why exactly Apple chose to uses a 2G instead of a 3G network. Also interesting were Pogue's response to whether the iPhone was really as fluid as it appeared in TV commercials, and whether it would work overseas.
