iPhone 2.0 unlocked, iPhone 3G will hopefully follow soon…

Posted by Usman on July 22, 2008

Last weekend saw the introduction of an unlock solution for the latest iPhone firmware. The first-gen iPhone users will now be able to enjoy 2.0 firmware with any SIM card. The iPhone 3G is not there yet, but there’s some progress and we hope it would get unlocked some time soon too.

The popular iPhone Dev Team has come up with the latest version of their all-in-one Pwnage tool for setting your iPhones free via customized firmwares - much like the Windows Mobile community does it. However with the Pwnage Tool you can cook your own firmwares customized to your liking.

For those of you that are new to Pwning here’s a brief and simplified explanation. You take an original iPhone firmware file (freely downloadable), you run it through the Pwnage tool customizing stuff on the way (such as pre-installed applications, setups, even custom graphics) and finally you apply it to the iPhone the regular iTunes way. It’s that simple.

The new Pwnage 2.0 tool now allows you to (h)activate, jailbreak and unlock the first-gen iPhone running the latest 2.0 software. It’s a major upgrade to the iPhone functionality and actually makes the original iPhone software identical to the iPhone 3G.

Samsung claims world’s slimmest 8MP cellphone.

Samsung 8MP CMOS camera module claims to be world’s slimmest

If you like one of those who frequently use your mobile phone for taking photos, things just got a little clearer. Samsung recently unveiled what they claim is the world’s thinnest 8MP CMOS designed for use with cellphones.

The device measures just 28mm × 15.3mm × 8.5mm, and the small size is not all. Like many digital cameras, the little photo-taking module features face-detection, anti-shake, ISO 1600 sensitivity and can even detect and automatically snap a photo when it recognizes a smile.

Fortunately this isn’t just some hyped technology that Samsung is flaunting for years down the road. The company says the new slim 8MP CMOS should be available for mobile phones yet in the 3rd or 4th quarter of this year.

Who’s number one again? The PSP is!

Posted by Usman on July 20, 2008

Can anyone ever be sick of good news? Maybe you guys are tired of hearing how well our beloved handheld is doing in Japan. But we doubt Sony minds the good news, and neither do we. However, we do mind coming up with a new headline for the same good news every single week. Maybe you guys can give us some suggestions in comments …
Week of June 30th-July 6th, 2008:

  • PSP - 56,998 (559)
  • Nintendo DS - 48,540 (1,085)
  • Wii - 41,768 (2,757)
  • PlayStation 3 - 12,458 (1,901)
  • PlayStation 2 - 10,405 (1,363)
  • Xbox 360 - 3,807 (969)

The PSP outsold itself from last week, selling 559 more units. Its big brother, the PlayStation 3, didn’t fare so well — sales fell by almost 2,000 units.

Samsung has been at the forefront of providing large picture quality with their camera phones, and the SCH-B6000 is not an exception.

Samsung is doing another first with releasing a 10 megapixel camera phone. With this new phone they have made it slight lighter and slightly thinner than their previously released 7 megapixel phone, but still managed to add more megapixels with camera features that rival other 10 megapixel cameras.

There is also a TV out jack on this camera phone to show still or motion pictures on a television, as well as a Digital Multimedia Broadcasting function built in to connect. The SCH-B6000 utilizes Bluetooth technology and supports the AnyCall band for providers.

God of War III: Debut Trailer

Posted by Fawaz on July 16, 2008

God of War III: Debut Trailer

We have reported awhile ago, that God of War III might show at E3 2008, lo and behold, Sony shows a debut trailer of God of War III. It’s a pre-rendered trailer, showing destroyed world. Some man narrating behind saying something like ” Sacred walls of Olympus has been breached” and think Kratos did it. In the end, we see Kratos standing on a building structure with his toys saying,”IN THE END ….. THERE WILL ONLY BE CHAOS”. That was abit funny. Well enjoy the trailer.

The PSP phone — Comming when?

Posted by Vicky on July 15, 2008

   PSP_phone_T3-728-75                 Sony_Ericsson_PSP_Phone_Concept-728-75

There have been a few rumoured devices over the years that have got the minds and mouths of the technology community working overtime. The iPhone and the Wii are two such examples.

The Sony PlayStation Portable was introduced to similar fanfare in December 2004, and although its popularity has been average worldwide, that hasn’t stopped legions of fans longing for the day when the PSP phone finally lands on the shelves.

So what’s been said so far, what patents have been filed, what concept art has been produced and above all, how much of it is tosh and gubbins?

Xbox cuts price to $299

Posted by Vicky on July 13, 2008

Looks like after MGS 4 give a bit hit to PS3 and xBox is lacking in sales, Thats why Microsoft corp is set to cut the price of its best selling Xbox 360 pro model to $299 from $3449.

According to Reuters, Microsoft plans to lower the price of the Xbox 360 model with the 20 gigabyte hard drive this weekend before the video game industry’s biggest trade show, E3, taking place next week in Los Angeles.

A price cut has been widely reported by popular video game blogs and technology Web sites. Many posted snapshots of flyers from various retailers advertising the $299 price.

A company spokeswoman said Microsoft has nothing to announce at this time.

Microsoft last cut the price of the Xbox Pro in August, from $399 to $349, prior to the release of "Halo 3" the following month.

A cut to $299 makes the Xbox 360 Pro $100 less than Sony Corp’s PlayStation 3 with a 40 gigabyte hard drive. Microsoft is locked in a three-way competition with Nintendo’s Wii and the PlayStation 3, which comes with a high-definition Blu-ray video player.

Price cuts from Nintendo and Sony seem unlikely. Nintendo’s $249 Wii is still in short supply at many retailers, while Sony has said it aims to turn its video game business profitable this year, making a cut hard to swallow.

iPhone 3G Disassembly

Posted by Usman on July 11, 2008

Every that that has a start comes has an end, lolz …iFixit guys did it again,,, They disassembled the new Iphone 3G same day of iPhone 3G release… Milllions of people are dying for it standing in lines to get it, But iFixit guys did it the different way.

image  image

They performed this disassembly immediately following the iPhone launch at 12:01 July 11, 2008, New Zealand time. That’s 5:01 AM, July 10, Pacific time for those of us who aren’t islanders.

It’s open!
  • For comparison, here’s a link to last-year’s iPhone disassembly.

  • Our predictions:

    • Apple-labeled Samsung processor - correct

    • Either some kind of GPS chip, or none at all. If there isn’t a GPS chip, then it could be built into the processor. - unconfirmed

    • Lots of chips with only Apple markings on them. Sometimes we can tell what they are, but most of the time you have to take the chip itself apart first. - correct, but this one’s cheating

  • Removing the display!
