I’m a fan of Transformers, the movie, if to be precise. Since the trailer came out, i noticed the cool scream of decepticon Blackout when breaching the US security system. After asking my bro to extract the wav file from trailer, i did some cutting to it and the result is this cool sound (click to listen).
I think it is a perfect thingee as your new mobile ring tone, or even sound for incoming mails on your favorite mail client ;)

If you’ve seen Windows Vista with it’s new look, you might want to make your Windows XP look similar ;)
This XP theme will help you tune your old Windows - Royale Noir. Just download the ZIP package with files, extract them and follow the instructions given on that site. It works flawless, i’m using this theme on my PC at work and never had any problems with graphic drivers or anything. Enjoy!

Kindle from Amazon is a wireless reading device, or in other words it’s an electronic pager or book. But, it’s not just a book, it’s a device that lets you store hundreds of books (memory expandable with SD cards), it lets you search and buy books online from Amazon via its wireless connection (it is not a Wi-Fi, but a GSM connection, no hotspots needed!), and also keeps up to date with your subscriptions to newspapers or blogs. I’d say it’s almost perfect device. The only thing i don’t like is the price - $399.00
Watch the review video of Kindle from Amazon:
