TheStreet.com reports that Verizon is considering backing out of its plan to offer the Palm Pre early next year, choosing instead to focus on BlackBerry and Android phones (among others) in the wake of the Pre's somewhat disappointing sales.

Yahoo! bought Flickr some time ago, but you wouldn't know it from your first glance at the site — until now. The Flickr logo now says "Flickr from Yahoo!" and some users are reacting against the move.

The iPhone is finally getting MMS support on AT&T via a software update that will be available on iTunes sometime in the late morning tomorrow.
