But while it waits for FAA certification, Joby is teaming up with Uber to get more passengers in its newly acquired fleet of helicopters. Joby announced today that Uber customers will soon be able to reserve a helicopter ride on the ridehailing company’s app. The integration...

Apple introduces a lot of exciting products on Tuesday. But wait! There is one more thing, one thing that Apple didn’t show. Apple has released a new 40W Dynamic Power Adapter with 60W Max charging.
