Oh no! my Ps3 savings fund not yet reached it’s target and now according to GamesIndustry.biz website.

“All they’re doing is taking their stock in trade that they’ve got at the moment of the 60GB model, marking the price down and it will all be gone by the end of July.”

Mobile phone/internet gadgets are getting better and better everyday.. Now you can post to your blog directly from your mobile phone.. no, it is not the iPhone. Samsung Electronics will introduce a 3G phone SGH-L760 in Europe this coming months which can be use to post content into your blog. This is 3G technology so it will take awhile before it reached to the U.S.A. My take on this is that, this gadget is ideal if you’re posting video or photos in your blog but I don’t think this would be as good if you’re posting text with paragraphs unless you’re reader is cool with text-speak.  Source {here}

This guy used to put into blender anything and let people see what will happen (as if we’re not sure what’s gonna happen) and now he’s doing it to a (poor) iPhone.. will the iPhone blend? dumb question BTW as we all know that it is not blender-proof. Good marketing stunt.. bad for iPhone.

Watch the video on you own risk, and kids don’t try this at home, specially if you don’t own the iPhone!
