For a few months now I have been in the market for a new smart phone. For about a year now I have been using the Apple 3GS.  This phone is very functional, but boy is it slow.  So the time has come to get a new faster smart phone, and it looks like it is going to be the Samsung Galaxy S2.

The first thing is Traveller-AR is based on the pen and paper roleplaying game from the 1970′s.  Since then it has had four decades… Continue Reading»

The original mobile phones cost around £2,000 in the money of the day,  today that would be worth around £6,000, They also weighed in at around 6 Kg, and had to be carried around in a shoulder bag.

Engadget has released photos of an apparant 4G iPhone which was, apparently, left on the floor in a bar.

Pretty Soon We Will See the New 2010 MacBook Pro!

I have to admit here, that I am a long term Windows user. However I think it is safe to say that I would be lying if I said I did not admire the Mac’s sleek looks and fairly nifty GUI.

Nevertheless, Mac fans have been getting restless over the last few months, with next to no communication from Apple in regards to a new 2010 MacBook Pro upgrade. Some users… Continue Reading»
