Blizzard Entertainment is finally releasing the second installation of their popular RTS game, Starcraft II. Although it has taken them 10 long years (A little overdue…) I’m quite excited!
Next, when is Diablo 3 going to be released? Another 10 years

Apple’s Worldwide Developer Conference (WWDC) is one of the prestigious corporate events in the world, where company makes special announcements for the upcoming year. Now, all Apple fans are desperately waiting for WWDC 2010 so that they can see Apple’s CEO Steve Jobs on the keynote again.
According to some rumors, iPhone 4G will be launched in WWDC 2010. Apple always launch a new phone during WWDC and in WWDC’09 also they have released iPhone 3GS. Well, there is no confirmation on WWDC 2010 event, but Moscone Center Calendar indicates that there is a “Corporate Event” from June 28, 2010 through July 2, 2010.

Wishing one and all, especially my Buddhist viewers (if there’s any to begin with) a Happy Vesak Day!
To all non-buddhist ones, enjoy the long weekend!

Apple iPhone “HD” in white? Somehow I smell a rat here. If you take a look closely at the white Apple iPhone “HD”, you’ll notice a curiously big gap between the fascia and the aluminum mid-section, of course this is just a speculation, just as much as everything else with the next-gen iPhone.
Anyways, we’ll all be waiting for June 2010, after the WWDC.

There have been many online reports that Andriod FroYo 2.2 is available for update and download to all Nexus One devices? Is this true?
Any Singaporean Nexus One owners that can confirm this?

Visit Google’s search engine site and you will be greeted with a PacMan game. The game was first developed by Namco in 1980 (now Namco Bandai Games). Google has often used its logo as real estate to promote graphics, illustrations and national holidays, but the temporary replacement of the “I’m Feeling Lucky” button with “Insert Coin” marks a playful departure from Google’s iconic two-button search interface.
Happy Birthday, Mr. PacMan.

The NEX series will initially comprise two cameras – the NEX-5 and NEX-3. In terms of specifications, both cameras are essentially identical – the NEX-5 gets a slightly smaller magnesium alloy body and 1080i AVCHD movie recording but in ever other respect they’re the same.
A mount adapter will be available, giving the ability to use Sony and Minolta Alpha-mount lenses. The LA-EA1 adapter will have a motor to control the lens aperture but nothing to driving the autofocus (they can’t currently focus SSM and SAM lenses with built-in focus motors either). We have no pricing for the adapter yet but suspect the additional mechanical complexity of providing aperture support may mean it’s worth thinking very hard about how much it’s really worth to retain compatibility.
