8GB iPhone in China much cheaper!

Quite a surprise, the price of the 8 gigabyte model of Apple’s iPhone dropped a whopping 125 dollars since the last time we asked! Back in December we were running around in that big electronics store at the Hong Kong plaza and back then the price was almost 650 dollars. Now the 16 GB version is available for 690 dollar and thus the 8 GB...

iPhone Wallpaper: My Contribution.

I took personal favorites out of my 200 most popular flickr pictures and converted them into the iPhone accepted wallpaper size of 320 to 480 pixels. Feel free to modify them or whatever, they are all with a creative commons license. Enjoy these free iPhone wallpapers: That’s it for now.

Si, Super Mario! Thanks to Time Machine, reinstalling a oversized OS X is as easy as never before. Just restore everything from Time Machine except the applications, and you’ll get rid of all the caches and stuff that gets summed up in your hidden libraries. Awesome! And I got a neat new external 500 gigabyte big FireWire 400 hard disk for future video projects. It...

Perian: Awesome FLV QuickTime plugin.

Perian I just realized, while downloading the update for Perian 1.1, that I had never recommended it before: It calls itself the "swiss-army knife for QuickTime" and it has all the reasons to do so! Perian enables QuickTime application support for additional Media Types like FLV (used by YouTube ) or HuffYUV, FFVHuff and other codecs you will never ever use in your entire life.

Aliens vs. Predator – Requiem Trailer!

We finally get what we've been waiting for.

Old Shanghai in Ang Lee’s new movie.

Most of the story seems to take place in 'occupied Shanghai', so I am guessing in the late 1930's.
