Apple is having a momentum with the introduction of the iPhone 3G and while the other Apple businesses are doing quite good we haven't seen any major change in form or any upgrade to the mac business platform.

We all the mac fans have much in common, we love our fruity company and its products, the mac os x, the Newton makes us cry and the Classic gives us rejoice… 14 years and still running, but there is one thing that is inseparable of mac users is that we are hardcore gamers in the wrong platform. Wrong platform? yep and it is almost clear that nothing will change unless Apple takes drastic measures.

Here is a really quick and rough tutorial for enabling the Japanese keyboard on your iPhone, which allows you to type in hiragana, katakana, and kanji. For some reason, even though there is rumor that the iPhone will be making its way sometime not too far from now to Japan, the Japanese language keyboard is not enabled on the device, though its functionality is clearly working and arguably ready to go.

LG Electronics (LG) announced today the global launch of the LG-KF510 boasting an extremely-slim body with dynamic functional design. The eye-catching color gradations of LG-KF510 are the first ever to be used on a mobile phone, with choices of Stardust Dark Gray and Sunset Red on the full metal exterior.

This new ad is totally different, it is about human, about people interacting with their PCs, creationists, designers, celebrities, teachers and even the Conquistador himself (Bill Gates), but it is totally impossible to take apart from those humans the bad experiences they have suffered using Windows, how viruses destroyed their long hours work and how a scanner driver reset the whole computer and put your time in captivity.

Do you remember something about Origami? No, no the japanese papel folding techniques, the Microsoft "outofthisworld" device/platform that will change how we interact with our mobile devices…

We all know that with Windows Vista Microsoft lose the orientation and turned it into another Windows Me. Microsoft spent 5 years creating the most advanced Operating System in decades, sophisticated filesystem, new interface and a long list of features enought to create two OSes, but something happened in the way to heaven and the system suffered some delays, features cut and ended up being a Windows Me Light, nothing resembles in Vista to what they promised.
