Samsung's 500GB 2.5-inch drive arrives, alongside 22X DVD burner {Engadget}
Mar 9th 2008 9:47AM Correct me if i'm wrong... but didn't Sony say the PS3 will only recognize up to 250 gig hard drives? Anything higher than that will be usable but, the playstation can only see 250 gig so the remaining 250 gig will be unusable and a total waste to get this for a PS3. This is more suitable for a notebook.

Little do you people know about OSX. There is a way to prevent this and Apple them selves provided it. Its on the OSX install disc, you can run this app that came on the disc and you can password protect your mac from ANY install discs being booted. You can google this or find it on the mac forum.

AT&T says SIM-only service available contract free, 2-year plan was a mistake {Engadget}
Jan 22nd 2008 7:24PM Also how do i know you will be slapped with the ETF even if you choose to transfer your number when activating the iPhone? Because it happened to me before... My original iPhone was taken to the Apple store to do some repair on it, so i took out my original SIM just like the apple rep told me to... Fast foward... Apple lost my iPhone and gave me a brand new one in the box sealed and all. So i got home put my SIM i took out from my lost iPhone into the new iPhone and it didn't unlock, i said you know what let me just use the SIM that came with the new iPhone, so i choose transfer existing number in the ATT setup in iTunes and choose over the same plan, txt and so on... When my bill came i was slapped with the ETF lol i forgot how much it was, i think it's like $200. I had to call ATT and explain the whole Apple lost my iPhone and they gave me a new one. Thankfully the lady was nice and removed the ETF :-)

Jan 22nd 2008 7:11PM OK, to clear this up a bit... There is no IPhone specific SIM card, but i must admit the iPhone is a bit tricky. This one time i placed my SIM card from my iPhone running 1.1.2 into an iPhone running 1.1.1 and it didn't work... It said connect to iTunes to activate so i connect to iTunes and the ATT activation wizard came up. By the way both phones were already activated legally through ATT originally. I just wanted to switch phone with friend... So to avoid activating the phone again with my SIM card in it which is already activated on my iPhone, i just updated that iPhone to 1.1.2. Good so now it is running the same version as my iPhone... guess what it completely re-locked the phone as if it was just purchased, i couldn't even use the main menu or anything before even if my friend put back in his iPhone SIM... It just completely locked it self and only way is to put in one of our SIM and do the activation process again. Problem to that is, by doing that to unlock the phone even when you choose already ATT customer in iTunes you just wanna transfer number and so on... On your next bill you will be slapped with the ETF and you have to call up ATT and explain to them and crap. There is no iPhone specific SIM but be careful the iPhone is a pure trickster so i think this SIM free off contract will not work, it will probably ask you to connect to iTunes to activate when inserted, i think its some kind of security feature in the newer iPhone firmware to prevent stolen iPhones from being activated, the user may think twice before activating a stolen iPhone when it ask him to connect to iTunes, remember you have to input personal info during the activation process...
