Archos 705 WiFi (80GB)

In the world of portable video players, there are swift little cheetahs like the Apple iPod Touch, midsize workhorses like the Cowon A3, and then there are breathtaking mastodons like the Archos 705 WiFi. If you take your gadgets extra-large, the Archos 705 WiFi offers a boatload of entertainment in a sturdy design priced at $399 (80GB) and $499 (160GB).

Design
With its 7-inch, widescreen display, the Archos 705 WiFi is an intimidating, metal-clad gadget that is equally useful for playing videos and clubbing assailants--seriously, this thing is enormous. Unlike its fifth-generation kin (the Archos 405 and the 605 WiFi), the face of the Archos 705 WiFi is utterly devoid of buttons, relying on its touch screen to take care of everything from menu navigation to volume control. Headphone output, power adapter input, and buttons for power and TV output are located on the left edge of the Archos 705 WiFi, leaving the right and top edges bare. The bottom edge of the Archos 705 WiFi is packed with ports for USB transfer, USB hosting, and Archos' own proprietary jack used for accessories such as the company's DVR Station, FM receiver, and battery extender. Flipping over the Archos 705 WiFi, you'll find a metal fold-out kickstand for hands-free use and a removable battery pack (replacements run $29).

Features
The majority of the features found on the Archos 705 WiFi are identical to the excellent ones found on the Archos 605 WiFi (the recipient of a 2007 CNET Editors' Choice). Packed within the 705 WiFi's giant metal husk are a music player, a video player, a photo viewer, a PDF reader, a Wi-Fi video rental portal, and an optional Flash-enabled Web browser (Opera), as well as optional widgets such as games, weather, an RSS newsreader, and more

Hellboy 2

With a signature blend of action, humor and character-based spectacle, the saga of the world's toughest, kitten-loving hero from Hell continues to unfold in "Hellboy 2" Bigger muscle, badder weapons and more ungodly villains arrive in an epic vision of imagination from Oscar-nominated director Guillermo del Toro ("Pan's Labyrinth").

In "Hellboy 2," after an ancient truce existing between humankind and the invisible realm of the fantastic is broken, hell on Earth is ready to erupt. A ruthless leader who treads the world above and the one below defies his bloodline and awakens an unstoppable army of creatures. Now, it's up to the planet's toughest, roughest superhero to battle the merciless dictator and his marauders. He may be red. He may be horned. He may be misunderstood. But when you need the job done right, it's time to call in Hellboy (Ron Perlman).

Along with his expanding team in the Bureau for Paranormal Research and Development-pyrokinetic girlfriend Liz (Selma Blair), aquatic empath Abe (Doug Jones) and protoplasmic mystic Johann-the BPRD will travel between the surface strata and the unseen magical one, where creatures of fantasy become corporeal. And Hellboy, (in "Hellboy 2") a creature of two worlds who's accepted by neither, must choose between the life he knows and an unknown destiny that beckons him.

STARRING: Ron Perlman, Selma Blair, Thomas Kretschmann, John Hurt
DIRECTOR: Guillermo del Toro

The Morph concept phone

Morph, a concept cell phone co-developed by Nokia Research Center and the University of Cambridge, is among the projects featured in "Design and the Elastic Mind," an exhibition of art-meets-technology advances on display through May 12 at the Museum of Modern Art in New York City. Morph is intended to demonstrate how nanotechnology might be used to make mobile devices stretchable, flexible, transparent, and easier to keep clean.

Announced in March of last year, the partnership between Nokia Research Center and the University of Cambridge is intended to initially focus on nanotechnologty applications. NRC has established a research facility at the university's West Cambridge site and collaborates with several departments, including the school's Nanoscience Center and Electrical Division of the Engineering Department. Although Morph technology likely will be incorporated first in high-end handsets, it eventually will find its way into low-cost mobile phones, Nokia says. source: CNET

AFP: Armed Forces of the President

The armed forces of the President, not the People

The media reported the thousands of outraged citizens who attended the massive gathering in Makati to manifest their outrage against Ms Arroyo and her gang of liars. But there were equally indignant citizens who could not do so because they were not allowed by the hypocritical soldiers.

Entry points to the great gathering of indignant citizens in Makati were blocked by the soldiers and policemen under the orders of their commander in chief. Thousands of Filipinos who wanted to join the angry protest were barred by the Armed Forces for shallow and stupid excuses.

The people were merely intending to add their voices to the indignant outcry against Ms Arroyo, her husband and their children, the blowhards in the Cabinet, the team who abducted Rodolfo Lozada and threatened his life, Mike Defensor who gave him P50,000 and Manuel Gaite who loaned him P500,000 supposedly from their own pockets and out of the goodness of their bleeding hearts.

But the people were denied this constitutional right by the AFP. Filipinos who could not exhibit their identification cards were denied free passage. In another entry point, the road was blocked by a big bus that the soldiers said could not be moved because of engine trouble.

STA. LUCIA CAPTURES 1ST ALL-FILIPINO TITLE

Last Sunday, I've watched the game 7 of the PBA All-Filipino Cup played between Sta. Lucia Realtors and Purefoods TJ Giants it was a very nice game, and every player seems to be the hero. The Realtors upended the Purefoods TJ Giants, 100-88, in a gripping Game Seven duel to capture the 2007-08 Smart PBA Philippine Cup championship before a sellout crowd at the Araneta Coliseum Sunday night. Kelly Williams came back strong from a mediocre nine-point showing in Game Six and the rest fought tenaciously in the battle that mattered the most in the tourney, claiming the coveted Commissioner Emilio Bernardino Jr. Trophy while Dennis Espino scattered a game-high 29 points and presided over the team’s telling run in the fourth quarter. He was later adjudged as the Finals MVP.

Windows XP Service Pack 3 Released

Windows XP SP3 combines all previously released performance, security, and stability updates. It also provides a limited number of new and enhanced functionalities, although it does not significantly change the Windows XP experience or bring functionality from newer versions of Windows to Windows XP. The goals of Windows XP SP3 are to:
 Provide a new baseline for customers still deploying Windows XP, to help them avoid the inconvenience of applying individual updates.
 Fill gaps in the updates users might have missed by declining individual updates when using Automatic Updates, and to deliver updates not made available through Windows Update.
Windows Vista provides the most advanced security and management capability, but for PCs that cannot be upgraded to Windows Vista right now, Windows XP SP3 ensures these PCs have all available updates and allows these PCs to leverage some new Windows Server 2008 capabilities, such as Network Access Protection (NAP).
For more information about Windows XP SP3, go to Windows XP Service Packs.
