Recently, as you know, I got the Google Nexus One, meaning now I have two smartphones along with my Palm Pre.  Well, I’ve come to realize that it’s good to have the best of both worlds, let me give you a bit of comparison test between the Nexus One’s video versus Palm Pre’s video.

Posted on March 22, 2010 by max

I found this hack on YouTube by a kid named Ray, who shows you how to download and install paid apps for free.  Of course, it’s probably illegal and we highly recommend to buy your apps and it’s informational purposes ONLY!

Posted on March 21, 2010 by max

You know my friend has just got the Droid couple months ago.  Well, the problem is that the Droid and all Android 2.0.1 or 2.1 operating systems don’t support the Thai language (and many other languages) by default.
