When 02 updated their web page to display their phone plans, they accidentally revealed some major information. They have priced iPhone Video Chats as the same as data. They also leaked that the iPhone 4g would have a front facing camera that people could use to chat.  It was already a rumor about the next gen iPhone would have video chat because of some leaked buttons images, but now it is official.

Here is a picture of the plans:

For all you people with Energizer Duo USB Chargers, Read This!

March 8th, 2010

Software that is packaged with Energizer Duo USB Chargers have found to be containing a Backdoor that will allow hackers into your computer. When you install this Software, it places “Usbcharger.dll” in the applications folder and “Arucer.dll” in the Windows System32 Folder.

Energizer has pulled the product from their shelves and wants you to uninstall the program. However, this doesn’t fix it so all you have to do is Remove the Energizer Program and delete the “Arucer.dll” file and also block port 7777 via Network Perimeter Devices or Firewall Software. This is also the same virus that was found in Photo Frames in 2007.

Stay Safe and comment in the comments area.

Taser’s Phone Monitoring may have your kid say, “I don’t want a phone anymore.”

March 7th, 2010

Taser International has made a program for your phone, that pretty much let parents approve, listen, and record every single thing coming to and out of your phone.

What this program does, is lets say your son or daughter gets a phone call, text message, or any multimedia message. It will send the text, phone call, and message to the parent’s phone. The way this may sound like over parenting is, the program allows you to listen in to the child’s and his/her friends conversation. Now, the company says that this is aimed so that the parent and the child are in loop with each other.

There is some downside to this that I see. One, lets say that your friend/or boyfriend/girlfriend are sending you a text or phone call like “What was the homework or help I need someone to pick me up…” and the parent doesn’t want to send it off cause the parent is angry at the kid or doesn’t like their friends, and the kid would never know. This also would bug the fucking shit, sorry for my language, out of the parents because every time someone calls your child, your child wants to receive/send a message, it would notify you.

This product was made so that both the Child and Parents know about it. The company will not install it on the child’s phone if the child doesn’t come or want it. They said in a podcast “If we wanted to make malware, we would.” Now, you can relax the monitor as you gain more trust in your child however, it will still check messages on a computer by using algorithms. However, this sounds like it would do more harm then good anyway. Maybe 4% of teens are actually doing dangerous things anyway. They are also making a product that will alert you when you go faster than 65 Miles Per Hour in a car, freeway or no freeway. They are thinking about putting this product out in Summer 2010 and pricing is still unknown at the time.

You can play a game blind, with a little help from your friends.

March 4th, 2010

Jorden Verner had a dream one day to beat the The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time. There was one thing standing in his way of doing that, he was blind. So to help him, a Gamer named Roy and his online friends went out and worked for 2 years playing the game blindfolded. They copied down every keystroke, that EVERY Jump, Roll, Slash, and movement. They then played these Commands aloud and Jorden copied them.

Jorden beat the game in November 2009 and tells that anyone can do anything, Disability or No Disability.
