31 May 2007Here’s a list of Windows Mobile 6 (WM6 Standard) and Windows Mobile 5 programs that I find useful, most of them available for free. They work on my T-Mobile Dash (HTC S610) but they should also run on Samsung BlackJack, Motorola Q and other Windows Mobile 5 smartphones as most of them aren’t specifically coded [...]

30 May 2007We finally went ahead and ordered the Atmosphere air purifier (thanks to 6 months no-interest financing!). Originally I’ve been a huge fan of the Sharper Image Ionic Breeze machines but after doing a little bit of comparison, I’ve decided against it. Mainly, Ionic Breeze doesn’t clean air properly as it reduces up to 43% of [...]

29 May 2007Latest comic-book-turned-movie is Ghost Rider, the story of death’s bounty hunter whose head is a burning skull, and uses chains as whips.

26 May 2007For some reason, I haven’t talked much about music… so here’s my list of songs I’ve been obssessively listening to lately:
Vanessa Hudgens – Let’s Dance
Apart from the incredibly generic (instead of, say, branded!) title, the song’s addictive beat is hard to avoid.

25 May 2007Last time I tried the Xbox 360 Wireless Racing Wheel, I was put off by the lack of supporting games, requirement of setting up a table to best control it, inability to use it on a PC and somewhat high price. Microsoft dropped the price to $129 USD but it looks like it’s even cheaper [...]
