Authenticator on sale at the Blizzard Store {WOW Insider}
Jun 30th 2008 8:09AM Yep, also found it on the EU site, sold out (why do I get the feeling there are millions of people trying to buy these right now and Blizzard have no chance of dealing with demand).
Strage EU prices, €6 or £6. All other items at the store have around a 1.5 exchange rate mirroring the value of the currency.
Season 4 does not begin June 17th {WOW Insider}
Jun 9th 2008 6:23PM I'm starting to regret waiting for S4 to buy some new honour gear but the chance of grabbing some PvP stuff and then find out a few weeks later the S2 gear will be out at the same prices would be even more annoying.
HTC Advantage X7510: now upgraded with 16GB flash memory {Engadget Mobile}
Feb 11th 2008 2:10AM Looks like a nice upgrade in general, although obviously they're still going for a tiny niche rather than expanding with a smaller or thinner model. As an Ameo owner I'd love to move to 16GB of flash and what will hopefully be a better keyboard.
Bit of a shame, from those shots, that they've removed the toggle stick and ok / windows buttons from the main device. The toggle stick is rather handy when you're not using the keyboard.
Shifting Perspectives: A look at leveling Balance {WOW Insider}
Jan 22nd 2008 12:31PM If you're grinding away then when an enemy is starting to lag and your DoTs would become wasted mana by not completing if you continue to wrath spam then a bit of melee to soak up some free mana is rather nice. Of course being a druid you also have to choice of shifting form and maybe taking out the next enemy as a cat while your mana continues to regenerate rather than being forced to drink all the time.
Now I'm in my late 60s I find my +dam and +crit means I rarely end up dps unless I've got an elite to take down but for the past 20 something levels it has been a great help. I even went as far as getting up omen of clarity which means I get a free heal every now and then when I do end up whacking something with a stick, although I'd expect most people to not go that far with the melee aspect of the spec.
If you are planning on a magic then melee combo then I'd advice having two weaons on you at all times, one to start with stam, int, and +dam/crit and boost the magic and stats and then move to a str, agi, +ap once you move to melee.
Shifting Perspectives: When am I outside? {WOW Insider}
Jan 8th 2008 8:42PM This is what I've always assumed.
It seems the original setting was to make anything where you stand on the 'world' ground was outside and anything where you stand on a 'prop' inside. World being the continuous skin of the level and props being structures placed onto that world.
This has obviously been refined with things like most props inside the main cities allow for mounting and some areas outside limited to prevent mounting to stop you moving too quickly or using the outdoor only abilities.
Microsoft rolls out Windows Live services for Nokia S60 devices {Engadget Mobile}
Aug 23rd 2007 12:41PM Shame they're releasing it on a limited selection of S60v3 devices. The original N93 is barely a year old and yet get shunned with this release. Hopefully it'll be reasonably easy to get it working on 'older' devices.

May 11th 2006 5:08AM The link isn't broken or the wrong file uploaded except for the embedded object in the RSS feed (and so iTunes feed).
The listen and mp3/ogg links above will give you the right file, I'm assuming most of the guys are rather busy right now with E3 to fix the RSS feed so give them a chance. If you've clicked through to here then you should be capable of manually downloading for this one episode.
