Men's HOLLISTER "Newport" Long Sleeve T-Shirt

2011-12-20T01:52:00.000-08:00

I bought myself a HOLLISTER "Newport" Long Sleeve T-Shirt on eBay few weeks ago, finally after a long wait it arrived in my letterbox today.
It really soft and confortable and looks great, just one complaint the sleeves are too long. I did a quick search on google and it seems like all of Hollister's clothes design have long sleeves, anyway it looks good and i am happy with this purchase.

Sandisk Cruzer Edge 16GB – Flash Drive Review

2011-12-14T05:46:00.000-08:00

Look what i got in the post today. Its a Sandisk Cruzer Edge 16GB Flash Drive! And here is my simple review of it.

My Impressions
The Cruzer Edge feels plasticy and very light. There is, however, a very nice solidity as you open and retract the USB connector. On inserting the Flash Drive into the USB port, you need to keep you thumb firmly in place to stop the connector retracting. This is something i hate and difficult to do because of its small size.

Video of explosion at Fukushima nuke plant, radiation leak reported

2011-03-12T06:48:00.000-08:00

An explosion at a crippled nuclear power plant in northern Japan on Saturday blew the roof off one building and caused a radiation leak of unspecified proportions, escalating the emergency confronting Japan’s government a day after an earthquake and tsunami devastated parts of the country’s northeastern coast.

Government officials said that the explosion, caused by a build-up of pressure in the reactor after the cooling system failed, destroyed the concrete structure surrounding the reactor but did not collapse the critical steel container inside. They said that raised the chances that they could prevent the release of large amounts of radioactive material and could avoid a core meltdown at the plant.

Kinect Confirmed As Fastest-Selling Consumer Electronics Device

2011-03-11T23:20:00.000-08:00

Guinness World Records, the global authority on record breaking, today confirms that the Kinect for the Xbox 360 is the Fastest-Selling Consumer Electronics Device. The hardware, that allows controller-free gaming, sold through an average of 133,333 units per day, for a total of 8 million units in its first 60 days on sale from 4 November 2010 to 3 January 2011.

The sales figures outstrip both the iPhone and the iPad for the equivalent periods after launch.

Quite a claim, isn’t it? Microsoft chief financial officer Peter Klein made a statement during a conference call that the company’s own Kinect is the “fastest selling consumer electronic in history”. That would make Kinect a faster seller than every other game console of this generation.

Klein also said during the call that that Microsoft’s Entertainment & Devices division has grown 55% in the past year. The division, which generated $3.7 billion in revenue in Q4 of 2010, encompasses Xbox 360 and PC gaming, the Zune, and the recently released Windows Phone 7. Growth has been attributed to the sale of 6.3 million Xbox 360 consoles during the holiday season, an increase of 21% from last year, as well as the sale of 8 million Kinect sensors in the first 60 days of launch.

Limera1n, Sn0wbreeze & Greenpois0n Patched!

2011-03-11T22:57:00.000-08:00

It seems Apple has developed a strong security this time. iPad 2 is now available. Interestingly, GeoHot’s Limera1n exploit has been patched. Not only this, last updated Greenpois0n tool is also closed for it. And we are not considering Sn0wbreeze as it also uses the same exploit that has been patched now. So at the moment none of the previous tool is capable of jailbreaking the iOS 4.3.

So now we will have to wait for someone like Comex, who specializes in userland-based jailbreaks, to do their magic and bring yet another JailbreakMe like tool to jailbreak iOS 4.3 firmware on the iPad 2.

High-speed bus smash terror

2010-02-20T02:47:00.000-08:00

On-board security camera video shows deadly road accident in Taiwan. On 16 of October 2009, a bus hit and mangled 13 vehicles in a chain of crashes on the Changhua County highway. Four people were killed in the accident. After the crash, the bus driver, who has about 20 years experience behind the wheel, said he was driving at about only 60-70 kilometers per hour at the time of the accident. Although, he could not recall the actual moment or cause of the crash.

The iPad that launched a thousand apps

2010-02-15T22:10:00.000-08:00

Data gathered in January show a rush of new projects on the iPhone operating system

Measured by the number of new applications being written for each type of device, Google's (GOOG) Android operating system was closing the gap with Apple's (AAPL) iPhone throughout the second half of 2009, according to Flurry Analytics.

Tracking new application starts, Flurry observed a 25% month-over-month growth in new Android projects over that period and, relative to Android, a slight slackening in the rate of new iPhone projects.

But in January, Apple surged ahead. In that month, Flurry saw the number of iPhone developers adding its tracking code to new projects jump three-fold over December.

"This represents the single largest spike in Flurry history, with over 1,600 new iPhone OS application starts for January," wrote Flurry's Peter Farago in a report posted Friday.

What caused the spike? Flurry attributes it to the imminent arrival of the iPad:

"Historically, Flurry has measured surges in new application starts within its system in anticipation of new device launches, including for the Motorola Droid and iPhone 3GS. As such, we hypothesize that excitement generated by Apple’s iPad event in January is driving this growth. For developers who get a jump on customizing their applications for the iPad, there may be an opportunity to stand out early on, and earn more downloads."

We'll find out in March whether the iPad excitement Flurry measured in January survived the unveiling of the device in February.

Google to make Buzz changes based on user feedback

2010-02-15T22:07:00.000-08:00

Google to make Buzz changes based on user feedback

Here are the changes
1. More visible option to not show followers/people you follow on your public profile
If you don't want to share the lists of people who are following you and people you are following publicly on your profile, you can always opt out during the profile set-up when you first use Buzz or at any time from the edit profile page. We are making this option more prominent in the set up process, to ensure everyone who wanted to hide these lists can do so easily.

2. Ability to block anyone who starts following you
We are making it easier to block anyone, by adding "Block" links to the list of people following you. Previously, you were only able to block people from following you after they had created a public profile. Now, you can block anyone, regardless of whether or not they've already created profiles for themselves.

3. More clarity on which of your followers/people you follow can appear on your public profile
Initially, we showed you a list of all the people who would be following you once they created a public profile. However, only those contacts who had already created a public profile would show up on your public follower list. We're making this clearer by explicitly distinguishing which of your followers have public profiles and will show in your public list of followers. With this change you'll be able to see who is on the public list of followers that everyone else sees.

We designed Buzz to make it easy to connect with others and have conversations about things that interest you, and it's great to see millions of you doing this already. It's still early, and we have a long list of improvements on the way. We look forward to hearing more suggestions and will continue to improve the Buzz experience with user transparency and control top of mind. For more information about the choices you have when using Google Buzz, please visit our Help Center.

Nov. 13 when a federal judge in San Francisco ruled (PDF, courtesy of Groklaw) that Psystar had violated Apple’s copyright and the Digital Millennium Copyright Act.

Apple wants to get more serious about game development??

2009-11-14T10:46:00.000-08:00

Folks who have been wanting to join Apple will want to sit up and take notice of Apple’s latest job listing. The advertisement seeks a full time employee with 3-4 years of video game development experience. Candidates will need to have shipped at least one AAA title to be eligible. Does this mean that Apple wants to get more serious about game development on its iPhone platform?

'Ravensword' and Many Other Unity-Powered Games Rejected by Apple

2009-11-14T10:38:00.000-08:00

Bad news that the long-awaited Ravensword and a number of other games built on the Unity game engine have been rejected by Apple from the App Store. The problem appears to be a number of API calls in the engine.

Apple considers these to be private APIs, and they also got games developer Storm8 in trouble earlier this week; their games were pulled from the store in response to a lawsuit alleging that they were collecting data from users without their knowledge.

Unbeatable protection from Proporta for the HTC Hero

The HTC Hero is the new and pretty young contender in the world of Smartphones, and is generating a bit of a buzz with its “future retro” style. And to keep this stylish little device safe and sound, Proporta has come up with a range of specially designed cases tailor-made for its protection.

Firstly, there’s the brand new Mizu Shell (HTC Hero). This super tough case fits the Hero like a glove, and offers robust protection against scratching, impact damage and knocks. Available in charcoal, red and clear, it’s as stylish as it is strong, and gives you the chance to look after your Hero whilst complimenting, rather than hiding, its beautiful looks. The Mizu Shell is a brand new design for Proporta, and could possibly be rolled out for other devices they cover in the future, so feel free to give your opinion and watch this space.

And if that doesn’t tickle your fancy, there’s Proporta’s trademark Aluminium Lined Leather Case, handcrafted from the finest quality leather incorporating a “Screen Saver System” that features a sheet of lightweight, aircraft grade aluminium to guard against impact damage and crushing. Along with the classic Advanced Screen Protector, featuring ultra high clarity plastic and an easy application card, these make a tried and tested team that will keep your Hero as safe as houses. So rest assured that, whatever you need, Proporta has it covered.

Maya Case by proporta

2009-01-20T17:56:00.000-08:00

Today what we have for review is a small, simple and nice looking pouch called the Maya Case which is made by proporta. The Maya case comes in a very nice designed box with a magnetic latch, so there is no need to use a knife to cut open the box and risk damaging your wonderful new case (Nice job Propota).
The Maya case is made from a very soft leather which feels very nice to touch. All the stitching is well done i haven't seen any tears of any sort.
On the back what you will see is a nice Lanyard point and the proporta name stamped at the bottom. There were issues with the Lanyard point on earlier Maya cases, but since that proporta has solved it by stiching the landyard point on to the back of tha case.
(Sorry for the camera work here)
The inside of the maya case is soft and smooth and there is no sharp and spiky edges that will scrach your phone.

The Maya Case is one of the best looking and best made leather case i have used so far. I highly recommended this case. Oh one more thing this case fits the ipod touch and Nokia N71.
The maya case sells for $ 20.45 at proporta.com

Letter from Apple CEO Steve Jobs

2009-01-05T08:35:00.000-08:00

Letter from Apple CEO Steve Jobs

Dear Apple Community,

For the first time in a decade, I’m getting to spend the holiday season with my family, rather than intensely preparing for a Macworld keynote.

Unfortunately, my decision to have Phil deliver the Macworld keynote set off another flurry of rumors about my health, with some even publishing stories of me on my deathbed.

I’ve decided to share something very personal with the Apple community so that we can all relax and enjoy the show tomorrow.

As many of you know, I have been losing weight throughout 2008. The reason has been a mystery to me and my doctors. A few weeks ago, I decided that getting to the root cause of this and reversing it needed to become my #1 priority.

Fortunately, after further testing, my doctors think they have found the cause—a hormone imbalance that has been “robbing” me of the proteins my body needs to be healthy. Sophisticated blood tests have confirmed this diagnosis.

The remedy for this nutritional problem is relatively simple and straightforward, and I’ve already begun treatment. But, just like I didn’t lose this much weight and body mass in a week or a month, my doctors expect it will take me until late this Spring to regain it. I will continue as Apple’s CEO during my recovery.

I have given more than my all to Apple for the past 11 years now. I will be the first one to step up and tell our Board of Directors if I can no longer continue to fulfill my duties as Apple’s CEO. I hope the Apple community will support me in my recovery and know that I will always put what is best for Apple first.

So now I’ve said more than I wanted to say, and all that I am going to say, about this.

Steve

Review: RadTech Omnicleanz

2008-12-29T07:14:00.000-08:00

Have you ever tried to clean your iPhone's screen ? Did you know by using Soapy water it leaves residue, water is bad for electronics and Alcohol leaves streak marks. So what type of solution should you use? I recently got a bottle of Omnicleanz by RadTech it is wonderful. I sprayed some OmniCleanz on my iPhone screen, and began wiping it down with the included Opex cloth and the result was amazing! I have never seen my screen so clean and with out any fingerprints and streak marks.

OmniCleanz is without a doubt the best multi-purpose shiny thing cleaning solution I have ever used.

Production will start on the 20th with 60,000 to 80,000/day pieces coming off the assembly line. Steve Jobs will be announcing it during the January MacWorld Show and you will find it in the stores shortly afterwards.”

Games : Brothers In Arms Review

2008-12-13T01:17:00.000-08:00

Looking for an action game for the iPhone or iPod Touch, Brothers In Arms Hour of Heroes is an amazing title to check out. This game graphics are in 3D and vibrant, and the sounds are very impressive.

Brothers in Arms: Hour of Heroes features 13 missions across three campaigns: Normandy, Ardennes and Tunisia. Your role is that of a soldier in the 101st Airborne throughout out the game you have the ability to command vehicles including Jeeps and Sherman Tanks; a choice of different weapons ranging from bazooka to sniper rifle, machine gun and more; and support for the iPhone accelerometer for actions like grenade launching.

The controls do take a little getting used to as the developers had to figure out a way to use touch controls in place of buttons. However, it doesn’t take long to get the hang of it, and once you do, you’ll be bearing down on the enemy on foot, or by commanding vehicles like Sherman tanks or 4×4’s.

If you’re a fan of shooters, this looks to be one of the best on the iPhone yet.

Brothers in Arms — Hour of Heroes is available in the App Store now for $9.99.

Games : Dr. Awesome Review

2008-12-13T00:23:00.000-08:00

Dr. Awesome by Ngmoco, priced at $1.99.

Dr. Awesome places you in the role of the titular Dr. Awesome. He’s an eponymous hero who has to save the world to cure patients of a virulent new disease going around.

To do that, you must tilt your device to move a cursor around the effected area, cutting off infected tissue without letting floating bateria touch the line you’re cutting.

Another neat touch is the use of your contacts list to populate your patients list.

The game is as challenging as it is addicting. Dr. Awesome is worth every penny. The game joins the short list of must have iPhone games.

And it doesn't require any software installation and so it is legal.

It works by a clever combination of javascript bookmarks and web services.

Krusell Orion for iPhone 3G

2008-12-04T05:14:00.000-08:00

This is a book style case with a wallet compartment in the case. The iPhone fits in a slider in the centre of the book case. The cover closes together with a magnetic strap which is good in my opinion at first i was afraid the strong magnet in the case will affect the working of the iPhone but all is well nothing is affected by the magnet.

The case is made from a really nice high quality fine grain leather on the inside the is laid with a very soft felt which will prevent the case from any scratches. Every thing is stitched together with a nice matching tread, all the materials match up nicely and the stitches are all well done, nothing will come apart.

Another cool function of this case is it includes a move stand, the stand just fold out from under the case, a very creative addition.

The bulk soft leather around case does provide some drop protection for the iphone.

This is great bushiness style case, the high quality leather give the it the high class professional style.So if you are lookig for a very classy, book style case, this should be at the top of your list.

Nokia's iPhone killer ?

2008-12-03T01:38:00.000-08:00

As everyone should know Apple's iPhone was on the top of the list for everyone looking for a smart phone and has 16.6% of the smart phone market.
But the global smartphone leader by a huge margin Nokia did not have such good sales, its marketshare shrank from 63.3 percent to just 43.6 percent.

Even though it's not like the Apple's iPhone is stealing Nokia's users directly, Nokia has come out with a phone that they hope can challenge with the all mighty iPhone the N97. First look on the promotion video are amazing, lets hope Nokia's new flagship phone will boost its sales.

The Nokia N97 is expected to begin shipping in the first half of 2009 at an estimated retail price of EUR 550 before taxes or subsidies.

Incipio Feather Case for iPhone 3G

2008-12-02T08:37:00.000-08:00

Want to protect your iPhone in a less bulky manner but don't like the invisibleSHIELD because of the peeling skin and troublesome installation procedure? Your answer is here the Incipio Feather Case for the iPhone 3G, a case to buy if you want to add the minimum amount of bulk to your iPhone while providing a fair amount of protection.

The feather case is really light and the soft touch rubber-finished plastic shell feels really nice in your hands and provides some additional grip, while still being rather smooth to the touch. Unlike the Airjacket. The feather case does provide a decent amount of protection from daily use scratches, and ironically delivers more screen protection than the most similar case designs. The feather snapped onto the back of your iPhone you truly may not realize it’s there. The feathers are available in 5 colors (Olive Green, Magenta, White, Turquoise, and Black), all of which look quite nice.

Included in the package are two screen protectors, a cleaning cloth, and application squeegee for the screen film a good deal for a case costing $20. As of today the Incipio Feather Case is my new favourite case for my beloved iPhone.

The Xylo T3 by Ivyskin for the iPhone 3G

The Xylo Touch-Thru (T3) iPhone casescase. This new crystal cases case comes with a hard screen shell to protect the iPhone screen, but let’s you use the iPhone screen at all time, while keeping it safe from scratches, drops, and falls. Wonder how the touch movements go through the glass panel? ivySkin says it operates by “ultrasonic waves” that are transferred from the panel to the screen and i say its magic.
All in all a great case, one of my favourite cases now!

iPhone vs Storm

iPhone firmware 2.2.1 to have push notifications?

2008-11-29T04:21:00.000-08:00

According to RussianiPhone.ru, the iPhone 2.2.1 beta firmware apparently contains support for both push notifications as well as over-the-air MobileMe syncing with Notes support.

For those of you who don't know what is push notifications, push notifications allow you to receive notifications pertaining to a specific application (e.g. instant messanging) on your mobile device without actually having the entire application running in the background, in the other hand saving battery power and improving performance.

iPhone-users were originally supposed to receive push notifications back in September, but according to an email sent by Steve Jobs, ”We’re running a bit late. We want to get it 100% right the first time.”

So lets hope this rumour is true and we will be able to see Push Notification in the next update.

Update i found a video which will explain on push notifications in more detail.

Speck ToughSkin for iPhone 3G

2008-11-26T07:43:00.000-08:00

This case is designed to provide the ultimate protection for the iPhone 3G. The case in my opinion is somewhere between the protection offered by The Otterbox Defender and the PixelSkin.

The ToughSkin does a really good job of protecting the iPhone from drops, but if you compare this to the Otterbox Defender the defender obviously give better protection. Similar to the Otterbox all the buttons, such as sleep/wake, silent are accessible through the case. Also there is a special feature on this case, the bottom part of the case folds away allowing you to dock the iPhone with out removing the case.

In all this case provides good protection to your phone for a affordable price of $17.47.

Enable Emoji Icons Outside of Japan

2008-11-24T10:10:00.000-08:00

As you should know that japanese iPhone customers got 1 more function that the rest of the world does not have, the Emoji Icons. You can see from an Apple discussion thread, customers outside of Japan are pretty confused as to why Apple would leave the Emoji icons out of the update for everyone else.

Anyway a 19 year old software developer Steven Troughton-Smith explains how to enable Emoji icons on a iPhone set outside Japan.

You need to edit the file /User/Library/Preferences/com.apple.Preferences.plist on the device -> whether you use a jailbreak to achieve this or merely some iTunes backup editor is up to you.

Add the following boolean key as ‘true’: KeyboardEmojiEverywhere

Then merely go to the Keyboards section of the Settings app, hit Japanese, and turn on Emoji. Will work for any text field/view in the OS, including on websites, AND including the titles of items on SpringBoard (e.g. if you save a bookmark to the home screen).

2nd Generation iPod Touch Faster than iPhone

2008-11-24T04:50:00.000-08:00

Reported by touchArcade.com

Handheld Games Corp’s CEO Thomas Fessler has reported to that performance of their 3D TouchSports Tennis game is noticeably different across different models of the Apple hand-held devices. In the video below it shows the the 2nd gen iPod Touch loads the game much faster than the rest.

The reason for the difference is that fact that the 2nd gen iPod Touch’s processor was boosted to 532MHz (up from 412MHz). Meanwhile, the iPhone 3G, Original iPhone and 1st Generation iPod Touch continue to run at the original 412MHz.

Speck SeeThru Hard Shell case for iPhone 3G

2008-11-24T04:17:00.000-08:00

Want a iPhone colour change. Get a Speck SeeThru Hard Shell case for the iPhone 3G. The Speck SeeThru is available in many cool, translucent colors. To add extra grip onto this case, two rubber strips on each side of the case. The case is a split shell design, and has a special function. The bottom of the case can be detached and used as a stand.

The case is well cut, everything lines up perfectly. The dock connector, headphone socket, sleep wake button, volume and silent switch are all easily accessible. Every thing that comes from Speck is top class even the box the case comes in looks great.

In a bombshell if you want a case in many colours and provides sufficient protection the Speck SeeThru Hard Shell must be in your choice list.

iPod Touch Hack Firmware 2.2 Google Street View

2008-11-23T07:55:00.000-08:00

As you know the iPod Touch did not get the Google Street View as in the iPhone Firmware 2.2 update. But i have some good news iPod Touch Fans member timmyj9 played around with the Firmware and found a hack to enable the feature.

1. get this file via ssh: /System/Library/CoreServices/SpringBoard.app/N45AP.plist
2. convert to xml at http://iappcat.com/plist/bin2xml
3. add

telephony

maximumGeneration
2.5

underneath

standAloneContacts

4. save then using that website again reconvert to binary
5. rename original file N45AP.old
6. copy new N45AP.plist in (make sure permissions are 644)
7. reboot ipod
all new Maps features work however you get a searching for service (replaces the word ipod in the top left) and waiting for activation message that pops up occassionally, music settings disappear also music slot in prefs disappears (hjrry)

Hopefully someone can patch the frameworks or springboard which wouldnt require this to be done! Anyway if you're desperate to try it out, thats all that needs to be done theres nothing wrong with stability or anything so you're not going break anything permanately trying this out.
enjoy

Guide: How to create iPhone ringtone using iTunes

2008-10-18T12:10:00.000-07:00

In this guide I will teach you how to create an iPhone ringtone using iTunes.

Step 1:
Add file(s) to your iTunes library.

Step 2:
Right click Get Info, then options tab.

Step 3:
Make the start time and stop time the duration of the ringtone you'd like to use (no longer than 40 seconds though). For example, if you'd like to use the first 40 seconds of a song, make the start time 0:00 and the end time 0:40. If you want to use from 1:40-2:20 then do it like that, just make sure you use whichever part of the song you want to be your ringer and also make sure it doesn't exceed 40 seconds. After you've selected which part of the song will be your ringer, click OK.

Step 4:

Right click the song, and click 'Convert Selection to AAC'.

Step 5:
Go to your desktop, and make a folder called Ringtones. Once you've done that, go back to iTunes, right click the newly created clip and click copy. Paste it in the folder you just made.

Step 6:
Rename the file from whateversongyoupicked.m4a to whateversongyoupicked.m4r (in order to see file extensions you might have to play with your settings a bit) (whateversongyoupicked is just the example, you don't need to change the name of the song, just the extension).

Step 7:
Go back to iTunes, and delete the 40 second AAC clip you've made, drag the m4r file on to iTunes.

Step 8:
Sync/Resync your iPhone, and it should automatically add the file to your ringtone folder.

Review: Zagg iPhone Full Body invisibleSHIELD 1 month Review

2008-10-17T10:27:00.000-07:00

So i have been using the Zagg iPhone 3G Full Body invisibleSHIELD for 1 month and this is my review of it.

There is this part near the Camera its not sticking properly on the back and dust is collecting under it.

Ok. Now on the back corner the shield is pealing off and yes dust is collecting under it.

Another area of peeling is the front corner.

This is a scuff mark left by a key and the phone in the same pocket.
invisibleSHIELD + key = NO!

Basically the invisibleSHIELD on the iPhone still looks great. The phone is protected by the invisibleSHIELD, if not for this i am sure to see more scraches on the phone. Installation of the invisibleSHIELD is the most important part, if you do it properly the shield will look great even after time.

incase Leather Folio for iPhone 3G

2008-07-23T07:06:00.000-07:00

The Leather Folio is an excellent case for those looking for a simple, elegant, leather holster. The case is well-made: the leather is pleasant to the touch, the Velcro works well, and the belt clip is sturdy. The leather is also thick enough, and padded enough, to keep the iPhone from harm if you accidentally drop it.
