Android Dev Phone 2™
Sep 1st
I ordered my “Android Dev Phone 2™” on Sunday 27/08/2010 and thanks to UPS and the BrightStar i will hopefully have the phone anytime today!
It is shipped right from US. This is surprisingly a fast order&shipment service comparing to our local providers here in UK…
Anyway, when i get the phone, i will upload some photo from the un-boxing 
BrightStart: Deals with orders on behalf of Google. They offer both Nexus One and Android Dev Phone 2″.
Android Dev Phone 2 costs $399.00 and since it’s shipped from US to UK, I ended up paying $570.21. $108.85 is Duties/Tax and $62.36 for shipping. So if you are thinking of joining the Android Developers and test your first application on real device, you need $25 to register as an Android developer at Google Android developers and $570.21 to buy the device. This is if you are in UK, or at least this is what i paid so far!
How to get a screen-shot from iPhone display screen
Aug 31st
1. hold the “Home button” and press on the “Power button” once and release.
2. Go to Photo and you will find your screen-shot there.
Note: You can press the two buttons together at once. Just make sure that you always press the Power button while the home button is down.
I guess i made my point quite clear?!
How to tell if your Mac has a 32-bit or 64-bit processor
Aug 31st
Quite useful to know!
1. Choose About This Mac from the Apple () menu in the upper-left menu bar, then click More Info.
2. Open the Hardware section.
3. Locate the Processor Name.
4. Compare your Processor Name to information below to determine whether your Mac has a 32-bit or 64-bit processor.
Now Determine if your MAC OS is 32-bit or 64-bit capable
1. Type this command into the Terminal: ioreg -l -p IODeviceTree | grep firmware-abi
>> Output: | | “firmware-abi” = < "EFI64"> (Note: In my case, i got 64-bit)
In fact, the new MAC OS X (Snow Leopard) supports 64-bit computing but of-course requires a Mac with a 64-bit processor.

Some websites are just worth linking to!
Well hello all business minded people…
If you fancy interviews with those who make success from anything and everything, check this out: http://mixergy.com/interviews/
The guy who does the interviews is Andrew Warner. Unlike others he dares to ask forbidden questions, like all the hows and whats…
I have to say, that not all of his interviews are good, some are just long and boring.
Anyway, logon and you can also drop your own questions for the guest which i think is a plus. I enjoyed the “How A 16-Year-Old Made His First Million – with Christian Owens” interview.

Case Study
May 28th
Mass Merchandiser Prepaid Calling Cards
One of the UK’s leading telecommunications companies chose PomidorCart to develop an automated solution that could handle delivery of unique PIN numbers (PINs of Prepaid Calling Cards) to their customers via email and SMS, from their call shops across UK.
In order for this program to be successful, the application had to process orders that made directly by customers online or by companies’ staff in the designated call shops on behalf of their customers. Once order received, PomidorCart needs to verify the payment and deliver the PIN to customers via email or SMS. With our worldwide SMS coverage, the PINs can be delivered to many other destinations world-wide. More >
