Six versions of ICub exist in laboratories across Europe, where scientists are painstakingly tweaking its electronic brain to make it capable of learning, just like a human child and hoping it will learn how to adapt its behaviour to changing circumstances, offering new insights into the development of human consciousness.

    The first wave of Gameloft products available now for BlackBerry smartphones include such hit titles as: "Asphalt Urban GT 2," "LOST" and "Prince of Persia The Two Thrones."

    The games will be priced from $5.99 to $7.99, depending on the carrier.

    Gameloft said it would announce more BlackBerry titles at a later date.

    BlackBerry smartphones such as the Pearl and 8800 models receive e-mail and have mini keyboards and computerlike features. Those devices compete with the Treo smartphone from Palm Inc. (PALM.O) as well as other mobile devices.

    Games have been available for RIM's 950 and 957 units.

    Electronic Arts Inc. (ERTS.O), the biggest U.S. video game publisher, is among the companies supplying games for RIM devices.

    Research firm IDC said U.S. mobile gaming revenue hit $722 million in 2006.
