More Android "openness"
http://daringfireball.net/linked/2010/09/07/buchanan-bing
The Samsung Fascinate (these names keep getting worse) on Verizon only
offers the option of using Bing for search and Bing Maps (which is
apparently terrible) for mapping.

HP is releasing an Android tablet which, reportedly, doesn't offer
access to the Android Marketplace. You didn't really want apps anyway,
right?
Android: just open enough for carriers and device makers to fuck it up.
Incidentally, what the hell is HP's tablet strategy these days?

Global Warming and what you can do against it
Dear All,
As you know global warming is endangering the future of life on the
planet. It will also affect us;
rising sea levels, dwindling water supplies, mass deaths due to heat
waves, stoppage of the gulfstream, which
brings milder climate to north of Europe, super hurricanes, less food
due to droughts are some of the effects.
As you also know global warming is produced due to CO2 emissions
coming from burning of fossil fuels. So what
can every single person do to reduce global warming ?
1) Insulation: Do you know that you can save 50% of heating energy
(and money) by insulati

Why isn't Windows smart enough...
"Disable A Laptop Touchpad While You Type, Win 7 Edition
By Rick Broida
PC World - Many moons ago I wrote about TouchFreeze, a free laptop
utility that solves one of life's most maddening problems: accidental
swipes of your touchpad while typing. (Why isn't Windows smart enough to
do this on its own? Just saying.)"

Most Striking iPad Problems
Multitasking Inability
One of the biggest problems with iPad is that you cannot multitask on it!
You cannot prepare a presentation and listen to your favourite Linkin' Park
song on the iPad at the same time. This is one of the biggest iPad problems,
as despite positioned as a replacement for netbooks, it stymies
multitasking! However, the upcoming iOS4 update in September may solve some
of it. Another way to cross this hurdle is to run the "iPod" application

issue on their hands. We have been getting reports that at least three iPad
owners have claimed that their devices had shut off due to being in the sun
too long.
They claim that Apple has gone back on its words, when they made claims that
the iPad could be used as an e-book reader like the Amazon Kindle. The three

"Apple loves to tout the HD video recording and editing capabilities
of its new iPhone 4. Shoot.Edit.Share, says the slogan. Unfortunately,
something nasty happens between the shooting and YouTube sharing:
compression. Apple squashes your magical 720p memory into a rather

Apple claims ownership of magic, demanding that Copperfield immediately

No question, magic has been in the air in Cupertino. Following Steve
