Google’s Android OS has a new virus to worry about. This malware dubber “Geinimi” emerged in China and it allow hackers to gain access to the phone and all the personal data on it. This is not the first bit of malware on the Android but a report from Lookout Mobile Security said “This is one of the most sophisticated Android malware we’ve every seen to date.”
“Once the malware is installed on a user’s phone, it has the potential to receive commands from a remote server that allow the owner of that server to control the phone,” Lookout said.
“Geinimi’s author(s) have raised the sophistication bar significantly over and above previously observed Android malware by employing techniques to obfuscate its activities.”

OK EVGA published an image on their TwitPic account today of a new motherboard that supports 2 Intel Core i7 Processors. This is the motherboard that I have been waiting for. I just hope it doesn’t cost a thousand bucks. We will have to wait until CES to get more information about this motherboard. CES starts January 7th and runs until January 10 2010.
OK first thing I need to say is watch the whole video first.
Yes that is a real TV and real video on the screen. Now this would be awesome for video games and certain computer programs. I agree with Johnny Lee, we need some game made with this software.
MacRumors.com is reporting that Apple has applied for a patent for 3D computer displays. Back in 1995 Apple built a similar system called Hyper Reality display. The demo is amazing enough now just imagine what it could with a little fine tuning.
If I seen this robot walking down the road I would run. This thing is creepy. This is just one step closer to Skynet and Terminators taking over the world. Where is Sarah Connor when you need her? His name is Titan Robot and he was on display at Gitex Exhibition 2009 in Dubai. I wish they would have some of these tech show in Florida.
The T-Mobile Sidekick Disaster is why Cloud computing will never work. If you rely on Cloud computing and no local back up this will happen alot. Why would you only rely on that? I know its bad to say this but, if you don’t have a local back up of your data and someone else’s server crashes it’s your fault. Not the provider of the service. They should look at Dropbox. If you want your data any where you go Dropbox is the best answer.
If you are into Space and things like that you might want to check out Heavens-Above.com. Heavens Above allows you to track the ISS so you can watch it fly over you. You can type in your location using GPS coordinates or use there database of known location.
Typically you can see the ISS for about 5 minutes when it passes over. It looks like a bright star moving slower than a jet does when it flies over you.
I don’t care what any one says but I want one. This is the coolest damn thing I think I have every seen. Moé Passion has posted a few pictures of this Life-sized Gundam begin built.
Today was my final day before leaving Japan for ages. Was let off work early to get last minute things done. I decided to make another trip to Odaiba, an over an hour and a half trip from Yokosuka, to check the progress on the life sized RX-78 Gundam from the original Gundam series that I have been covering since May. I just updated on Sunday. Almost didn’t go. I mean, how much progress can they have made in just 2 days?
He has a 2 part story on his blog make sure that you check them out.
