The new BlackBerry Bold ($TBA) finally shows that RIM isn’t going to stand around and let Apple snatch up all its users. Featuring a sleek black exterior with satin chrome bezel and leather-like backplate, the iPhone-esque quad-band EDGE and tri-band HSDPA smartphone features GPS and Wi-Fi, a half-VGA (480 x 320 resolution) color LCD, and the usual Blackberry email/web functions and QWERTY keyboard. The Bold is powered by a 624 MHz mobile processor and also features 1GB of on-board storage (as well as a microSD/SDHC memory card slot), Bluetooth 2.0, and a 2-megapixel camera with video recording capability, built-in flash and 5x digital zoom.

Put simply, the WildCharge pad is “flat and thin with a conductive surface — once a cell phone or other electronic device that is enabled with WildCharge technology is placed on the pad it will instantaneously receive power from the pad.”
Finally, a Chinese developer has released a handwriting recognition application for the iPhone that provides users with “a writing area that can take over the standard keyboard at the touch of button.” The software is still in beta and it has quite a few errors�it doesn’t work correctly in landscape mode and it doesn’t appear in Mail.app for now.

The format war. It’s over. Done. Break out the blue victory hats and Curaçao, right? Wrong. There won’t be a Blu-ray victory party. Don’t take my word for it? How about Sony Electronics CEO Stan Glasgow’s? “From our perspective, the battle really begins now.” Now that HD DVD is dispatched, the members of Team Blu-ray can start fighting standard-def DVDs, digital downloads, consumer apathy, the Chinese and—of course—each other. Here’s the current state of Blu-ray, post-war edition:read more here
I guess it all starts with a virus that is held on a cool little pacman/apple symbol USB key. Just plug it in and it dl’s by itself. Using the Macbook’s built in accelerometer, the virus dismantles everything on your desktop and basically applies gravity to it. Your menus and icons will fall to the ground and bounce around as you shake your computer. Pretty neat, huh?
So apparently after 6 megapixels, the more pixels your digital camera has, the worse the image gets. Camera companies know that people cream over the number of megapixels their camera possesses, and so they cram as many MPs they can onto the image sensor. With compact digital cameras the image sensor can only so big because of the cameras overall size, so the MPs get smaller as they cram more onto the sensor. This results in grainy images because there is then more ‘image noise’.
Anyway, don’t even bother reading my crappy explanation, just check out the real thing here.
Boom, head shot. Sony no-scopes HD in the face. Toshiba has announced that it will be giving up its hold on HD and allow Blu Ray to take over the market. Check out this great post about the whole thing here.
