Today is a Great Day in America's history: President Obama has revealed himself as a Jedi Master, playing with a lightsaber while making sounds like *swisssssh* and *swoooosh* with his mouth. The Star Wars Kid has been vindicated, at last.
Oh Installer, Installer, we had so much fun together, you and I. When Apple didn't have any iPhone app store, and whenever Apple blocked some essential iPhone apps, you were always there. And now... now you are dead like Zed.
Finally, February 6 is the date for the much-awaited movie about the Star Wars fanboys who break into Skywalker Ranch to torture George Lucas for doing the prequels. OK, it's not about that. I wish.

The new iPhone OS 2.0 software has been unlocked and jailbroken. It was released just hours ago and it has already been cracked by the iPhone Dev Team. The first one took a couple of months, but this one was actually unlocked before Apple released it to the public. And you have had the proof in front of you all morning
The apparently incombustible Meizu CEO, Jack Wong, has just announced that they are going to add Live Messenger to their M8 cellphone, the rather pathetic and sad motherboard that wants to be an iPhone clone when it grows up (if it ever gets released). In other words: new vaporware announced for vaporware. The usual…
