I was sick throughout the weekend, therefore I couldn’t be up to date with what was happening with the Sony PSP, but, apparently, the 2.0 firmware has been cracked.
It all started with rumors (well, one of them eventually turned out to be true), and then came the typical “Hello World” program, and finally the first […]

I just wanted to let everyone know that I have a WordPress.com invite.
If you have used WordPress, and want to pass on a WordPress blog to someone on Blogger or some similar service to get them away from a free service that isn’t very good, then this is the mini-contest for you.
Post a comment here, […]

It is aging fast, as the browser turned 10 recently. I know not many of the Forever Geek viewers use Internet Explorer, but the fact remains it is still out there, and has taken 10 years to get to where it is today.
Christopher Vaughan on his msdn blog talks about Internet Explorer, and has this […]

For all of us Geeks out there that are dating, I thought this article would be a fun read. It is more or less about the woman wearing the pants in the relationship. Most of my “geek” friends that have women, have women that are very strong willed, and so this applies to them. Hope […]

Aspyr has announced the release of the first playable demo of Doom 3 for the Mac.
DOOM 3 utilizes id Software’s revolutionary new 3D graphics engine to create disturbingly realistic graphics, with never before seen detail and real-time lighting. Players can fight the forces of evil as a lone marine or battle other marines in team […]

Quoting an InfoWorld article:
“Screw the nano. What the hell does the nano do? Who listens to 1,000 songs?” Zander said. People are going to want devices that do more than just play music, something that can be seen in many other countries with more advanced mobile phone networks and savvy users, he said.

Apparently Apple is fielding lots of complaints from customers who have purchased the iPod Nano, citing that the screen is very easy to scratch. One customer even complained that his clothes scratched it.
“In a week my ipod will look like crap,” said another nano owner, Daniel Busbin. “I bought it because its supposed to be […]

The Inquirer has an article up about the possibility of Google entering the Television market. I think Google would make a great IPTV content provider.
GOOGLE is apparently branching out into television.
A few bloggers have apparently seen an advertisement for a full time project manager for GoogleTV in Mountain View.
According to the blogs the job called […]

Engadget has an article up, pointing to a Toms Hardware article on how the iPod nano only costs around $90 to make.
It’s important to point out that iSuppli’s figure does not include Apple’s cost of business (marketing, operating their dozens of storefronts, employing tens of thousands globally, etc.), however, which they conservatively estimate as being […]

It looks like some minor updates are going to be done for the mini line of Apple computers. The updates will probably help those that have not switched over, see the advantage of buying a mini.
Think Secret had the details first:
The low-end Mac mini will be upgraded from a 1.25GHz G4 processor to a 1.33GHz […]

Okay, I for one was annoyed with the stupid Intel number scheme, what is a 420? And a 630? Well, it looks like they are going to drop that numbering scheme. Don’t clap yet, as they are looking at introducing a new one, which looks even more confusing.
The Inquirer has the details of the […]

It looks like there is now a device that will allow you to watch UMD’s on your TV. I think this should have been a standard feature of the PSP, but who am I to say anything…I am not a Sony Executive.
Gizmodo with the story:
So you received that free Spider-Man 2 UMD with your […]

The Bowen Research group conducted a survey asking people if they had ever been emotionally moved by a video game. Surprisingly, MMOs weren’t at the top of the list. Instead it was the RPG genre that took the podium, and among it the Final Fantasy Series were by far the most emotional games of all.
In […]

An interesting idea, a twist on NetFlix is Peerflix. It is a service where if you have ever traded a movie with a friend you already know the concept, but the pool of friends at Peerflix is much larger.
Peerflix Inc., an online peer-to-peer DVD trading service, today officially opened for business, ending a year-long beta […]

Seems Palm users are not impressed with the Treo, and are taking a stand against the company. I don’t know if this will fix anything or really effect anyone, but it is an interesting turn of events.
In fact, these phones suffered from extremely poor sound quality and buzzing, choppiness, speakerphone problems, poor and broken screens, […]

A weird concept with some pretty big legal issues, a record shop chain in New Jersey now has a policy where you can buy a cd bring it home, rip it and bring it back and get 70% of its value back in your picket. Meaning if you don’t want the CD, you can get […]
