Google is floating an idea with Arizona-based Space Data to deliver wireless coverage to rural areas using hot air balloons, reports The Wall Street Journal. Cost is the motivation: $1,500 wireless receivers could be carried in $500 balloons, a fraction of the cost of a wireless tower.

NBC Mobile is offering movie fans instant text alerts of Oscar award winners as they are announced on Sunday, along with the usual red carpet and backstage video interviews. Coverage kicks off tonight at 4 pm ET.
