Either IWMOPS (I Want My One Point Six) are some of the most persuasive and influential people I know or Rogers is one of the nicest, most customer-oriented wireless providers (Oh, that was weird, did I just use “nice” and “mobile company” in the same sentence?). The title of this article says it like it is, Rogers HTC Dream owners will have the choice of exchanging for an HTC Magic.

What sparked this decision by Rogers is that my previous article regarding IWMOPS explained what updates each of the latter HTC devices would be receiving. In short the HTC Magic will be receiving Android 2.1 software and the HTC Dream would be getting nothing due to hardware constraints. Again IWMOPS complained and asked for a resolve and what they got was the decision to switch devices to the HTC Magic. Although many will not take the offer because the main feature separating the two devices is the Dream’s physical keyboard, which for some is a must-have. The official quoted statement is as follows (@RogersMary):

It’s great to hear that everyone is pleased by HTC’s agreement to upgrade Magic to 2.1. We pushed hard on your behalf and are pleased with that part. When it comes to Dream, we share in your frustration that the device does not have the required on-board memory for an upgrade. We’ve reviewed this internally and believe that Dream users should be able to have the same HTC Android experience as those who purchased the Magic. So, we are offering our HTC Dream customers a limited time opportunity to upgrade from their current HTC Dream device to the HTC Magic.

We’re working on finalizing the details of that promotion now but wanted to let you know the great news as soon as possible. Please be patient as this is not yet available in-store, online or through customer care. I will be back next week to provide you with more information. ‬

The Disney Marathon attracts more than 100,000 people every year, with nearly 24,000 people running in the full marathon alone.

Experts said dressing in layers is key. As runners got hot, they started taking off a layer at a time. All disregarded clothes along the course will be donated to charity.
A record 55,500 athletes have registered for the variety of events that make up the Walt Disney World Marathon Weekend. In 2009 the Walt Disney World Marathon was the eighth largest in the nation and the second largest combination race weekend. The main event – Sunday’s 26.2-mile journey through Disney’s four major theme parks – starts at 5:40 a.m. near Epcot.

Runners can look forward to VIP treatment as new “More Magic” options have been added. A pre-race pasta party and a post-race private celebration are new ticketed events available to those in attendance. On Thursday, Jan. 7, the Pasta in the Park Party at Epcot will giverunners and their friends and family a chance to “carb load” before the race and see a special viewing of “IllumiNations: Reflections of Earth,” a nighttime fireworks display. After the marathon on Sunday, the chance to ride select attractions and unwind with a live DJ and Disney characters is available when Disney’s Hollywood Studios hosts a private Victory Lap Celebration.

The VIP Race Retreat package is available again this year offering special race-day upgrades for participants and their friends and family, such as exclusive meet and greets withDisney characters and pre-registration for next year’s marathon.

HTC Magic owners disappointed by Rogers’ announcement that the Dream was going to stay at Android 1.5 may have cause to rejoice. A post from a Rogers rep over at Android forums claims that Rogers is putting together a promotion that will provide current Dream owners a limited time opportunity to upgrade to the HTC Magic. Rogers is reportedly still working on the details of the promotion but if it pans out, Dream owners may have a shiny, new Android handset in their future.

We popped over to Sling Media’s booth here at CES and took the new Sling Touch Control 100 for a spin. Overall, it’s pretty impressive and nifty, albeit a bit large, but the big, vivid screen makes up for it. Now, instead of picking up your heavy arm, grabbing the remote control and pushing all those buttons, you can set this thing down beside you and navigate your DVR or Blu-ray player over your wireless network with just the touch of a finger. The layout and set-up is very similar to what you’d see online for navigating content, so it’s quite intuitive. But if you miss that good-old-fashioned remote control look, you can get that up on the screen, too. Hit the break for the video demo!

Though most rumors as of late concern an Apple-designed tablet to be revealed later this month, the next version of the iPhone is getting its share of buzz as well. On top of a rumored CDMA version popping up on the Verizon network, here are additional details that we have caught up with recently.

We have already seen some evidence that Apple might bump the iPhone’s camera up to five megapixels, but there is also evidence to suggest the company may add an LED “flash” to improve its low-light picture-taking abilities. Sources for AppleInsider suggest that Apple is currently seeking a supplier for “tens of millions” of LEDs, with Philips’ LUXEON LED supposedly leading the pack of possibilities. The LED “flashes” used in mobile phones are actually constant light sources, so they could be used for shooting low-light videos too.

Imagination Technologies, the company that develops the PowerVR graphics processors used in the iPhone, has also announced an improved SGX545 graphics processor core. It’s compatible with OpenGL ES 2.0 3D graphics API, as well as OpenGL 3.2 and even OpenCL. The processor core is designed to be used in multi-core applications for even more of a kick, but would likely only appear as a single core in iPhone applications for better battery life. Imagination says that the tech is already “licensed by a lead partner,” and Apple’s investment in the company certainly qualifies it as one of those partners.

Finally, The iPhone Blog reports that buzz around the CES show floor is that Apple plans to add some form of limited multitasking to the next version of the iPhone. The details are naturally non-specific, though Apple has cited battery life and user complexity for not allowing multiple third-party apps to run simultaneously. Apple may include a PA Semi-designed, low-power ARM Cortex A9 processor in the next iPhone, which would negate the extra battery drain and keep performance at acceptable levels.

Next-gen iPhone hardware may make an appearance at the event supposedly focused on “mobile” devices that is expected later this month. However, if recent history is a guide, we won’t see the new hardware unveiled until shortly before its release this summer.

Posiblemente sea sólo un rumor ya que desde que Ferrari presentó al 288 GTO, en 1984, la denominación GTO no ha vuelto a usarse. Pero como a los amantes de los coches nos encantan los rumores, se cree, que Ferrari podría estar trabajando en un proyecto para recuperar la denominación GTO.

Como ya os hemos comentado hace unos meses, el modelo se basará en el 599XX y se convertirá en el modelo mas potente de Ferrari. Si nos basamos en los trabajos realizados sobre el 599XX, el 430 Scuderia y su predecesor el 360 Challenge Stradale, no es difícil imaginar que lo que podría estar preparando Ferrari es una verdadera bestia.

Todo apunta que el modelo montará un V12 de 6 litros con una potencia en torno a 700CV. El motor tiene un régimen de vueltas elevadísimo, unas 9.000 rpm, lo que le permitirá acelerar de 0 a 100 Km/h en menos de 3,2 segundos.

Exteriormente se cree que será un descendiente del 250 GTO o del 288 GTO. Según la revista EVO, Gran Bretaña recibirá unos 50 coches con un precio de 300.000 libras cada uno y que su entrega se realizaría en Mayo de este año.

Google has lost their minds. The living God of the universe will judge accordingly and someone will be held accountable. May god forgive you and your hatred.

I’m pretty sure people have sent me something on this before in the past, and maybe we’ve covered it, but if we have let me just reiterate what I think is obviously going on here: Google is scared.

Because even if the suggestions are automatically generated based on a proprietary algorithm someone could get killed for suggesting that “Islam is Bullshit”. Which is pretty good motivation for overriding the system.

Google this. Type this in Google “Christianity is…” and see what Google will suggest. It will suggest as the first option this: Christianity is Bullshit. Try it.

Now try “Islam is…” What does Google say? Nothing. There is no suggestion at all. What is this Google? Why is there “Christianity is Bullshit” but no “Islam is bullshit” in your search engine?
