iPhone farting app cleared at last

They said it would never happen. Actually, they may have said that they hoped it didn’t happen or at least that they didn’t really care one way or another, but that’s not important right now.

Taking travel services into your own hands: Becoming an on-the-go iPhone travel agent

Travel woes during winter are not new - canceled flights, delays, missed connections, you name it, it's likely to happen. Being stranded at a hub airport is probably the last thing you wanted to happen. Boy, that airport floor is a might comfortable bed, right? What's worse, if you're delayed you tend to have to wait in monstrously long customer 'service' lines to find out what your fate is. What's even worse is finding out that you missed an alternative connection while you were waiting in line!

green teaser

Could this be the thing we've been talking about since last year, even back when no one would believe us? You know, the thing that Konami said might happen, but then apparently didn't say might happen? The thing that Microsoft has recently been talking about being able to run on its platform and hoping to see soon?

Arresting MPs and nationalising banks happen in dictatorships

I've never actually seen a cabinet minister caught on camera with his (or in this case, her) eyes tightly closed before. When Andrew Marr began addressing the Home Secretary, Jacqui Smith, yesterday morning, she looked as if she was desperately trying to catch up on the sleep she had lost over the past three days.

GT5 not out until 2010 at earliest? What could happen if it is the case!

"They need to put out a game each 2 years, which allows the a year in pre-release period to work on the future iteration, like every other normal developer does, and they SELL copies and people would buy the NEXT iteration at the same rate, making them more $$ and getting the same, if not more support from fans.

Prototype Countdown - In 19 days, something's going to happen

A quick hit before your weekend starts: over on the Prototype website, there's a countdown clock in full effect. As of writing this article, there's a little over 19 days until something happens with this game featuring a leaping shapeshifter in a locked down New York. No other details are on the site, but that countdown would be ending right around the Consumer Electronics Show in Vegas.

PIPE Networks PPC-1 in financial trouble - what will happen to PPC-2?

"... Pipe Networks requested a share trading halt at the ASX after proposed financing arrangements for its PPC-1 cable between Australia and Guam fell through. Pipe's international unit said it had withdrawn from negotiations with financiers and that talks would now ensue with suppliers and customers to determine the future of the project. It also suggested that there were alternative arrangements in the offing but if they fell through the company would take a $30 million non-cash writeoff. A final resolution is expected in coming days, it said."

Paypal Ruins Christmas for eBay Customers

This could happen to you. I recently read a very sad story posted on eBay's (EBAY) Paypal discussion board. It's about a fantastic mom (eBay id: seasonalstuff) who sold holiday decorations to earn Xmas money for her family. Unfortunately all her hard work was for nothing because the Paypal Grinch froze her account two weeks before Santa's arrival.

Down on the floor it's another pill stampede

It can happen at almost any time, but invariably it seems to occur when you are too busy to deal with it.

Nikon D3X Shoots 24.5 Megapixels

Unless you happen to be a professional studio photographer, it's unlikely that Nikon's new D3X is aimed at you. That never stopped anyone from looking at such equipment and wondering what it might be like to own (without stumping up the $8000 asking price of course). The D3X comes with a 24.5 megapixel sensor (that means shots at 6048 x 4032), and can shoot bursts of five frames a second at full resolution. You get a regular ISO range of 100-1600 (expandable to ISO 50 and ISO 6400), with supposedly no grain at ISO 1600, as well as dual CF card slots and a 51 point autofocus system (which can also track and lock on to moving subjects). All that and a battery that claims 4400 shots from a single charge (naturally, it aint small). You can see some impressive shots taken with the D3X here.

FinMin plans to double 3G base price

Will the 3G launch ever happen in India? One has to keep fingers crossed. The Finance Ministry has sent a note to the Department of Telecommunications (DoT) to double the reserve price for 3G to $826 million (Rs 4040 crore) and $413 million (Rs 2020 crore) for BWA spectrum in the country.

One man and his blog - What a difference a year makes

It’s funny what can happen over the course of a year: Boris Johnson has gone from some-time quiz show host to mayor of London; Facebook has changed from something your slightly-odd nephew might use to an acceptable business tool; and the English cricket team has transformed from over-hyped and disappointing to… oh, hang on, no change there. Depressing thoughts on the state of our national team aside, the reason for my spot of backwards-gazing is that it has now been 12 months since the launch of Office Communication Server 2007.

WoW: Wrath of Lich King Free For Ten Days

Well, it was bound to happen eventually. Now that World of Warcraft's second expansion Wrath of the Lich King has vacuumed up millions in sales, they're looking to ensnare all of the recovering addicts and other Johnny Come-Lately's with a free trial for ten days. Curse you, Blizzard.
