Replacing the Nexus One’s Digitizer
Nexus One tear down

My Nexus One’s glass, or “digitizer”, was cracked during a bus ride. I have to say that I thought my phone was dead. But I decided to try to save it (it was only a glass after all). So I ordered a digitizer on Ebay – with some tools included – (You can find one for less than 30€) and [...]

IMG_20101021_202104

We’ve been playing with WP7 for a few days now (With the Optimus 7) and I can more easily give my opinions about this “new” OS. First, there are no doubts to me that WP7 is a new big player in the “hall of frame” of the best OS. It is beautiful, snappy, not buggy and it works very well. I like [...]

It should have a 1500 mAh battery, a 5 MP camera, … but We still don”t know much about the beast. I’m pretty sure it gonna have [...]

Tokyo Flash hands on
Sensai

Tokyo Flash is an innovative brand, with very geeky designs. We were able to try the Sensai (in black). This watch is really pretty, made of aluminium, with a black body… I really like this style and it is really cool to wear. Not much to say, it is easy, there are only two buttons, one to set the time [...]

During the flight QF32, between Singapore and Sydney, an engine failure occurred only few minutes after take-off. What happened? The aircraft suffered an uncontained failure of the engine N#2. Was it dangerous? Every failure can be dangerous for [...]

Skyfire 2.0 hits the Appstore
Skyfire 2.0 for IOS

Who said that IOS wasn’t able to support Flash? I don’t know, but that guy is wrong, well almost. There were – terrible – solutions already, very slow browsers, but today there is Skyfire 2.0. Skyfire is a famous browser, I don’t really like it myself but this is an interesting alternative, especially for iPhone users. Well Skyfire 2.0 is [...]
