iPod Nano har problem

iPod NanoCNet rapporterar att många som köpt iPod Nano har haft problem med att skärmen är väldigt känslig. Många har problem med att skärmen repas och för vissa har skärm spruckit eller gått sönder trots varsam behandling. En användare med problem säger att han inte bryr sig så mycket om chassit på MP3-spelaren repas men att det är svårt att leva med en skärm som ser ut som den sandpapprats, trots att produkten bara legat ensam i en mjuk shortsficka. En reparatör av iPods har temporärt höjt deras pris på reparation av iPod Nanos LCD på grund av att så många har haft det här problemet.

What the hell are you? I´m Batman!

Product Image: Batman Begins
My rating: 4 out of 5

As a young boy, Bruce Wayne watched in horror as his millionaire parents were slain in front of him–a trauma that leads him to become obsessed with revenge. But the opportunity to avenge his parent’s deaths is cruelly taken away from him by fate. Fleeing to the East, where he seeks counsel with the dangerous but honorable ninja cult leader known as Ra’s Al-Ghul, Bruce returns to his now decaying Gotham City, which is overrun by organized crime and other dangerous individuals manipulating the system. Meanwhile, Bruce is slowly being swindled out of Wayne Industries, the company he inherited. The discovery of a cave under his mansion, along with a prototype armored suit, leads him to assume a new persona, one which will strike fear into the hearts of men who do wrong; he becomes Batman!!! In the new guise, and with the help of rising cop Jim Gordon, Batman sets out to take down the various nefarious schemes in motion by individuals such as mafia don Falcone, the twisted doctor/drug dealer Jonathan ‘The Scarecrow’ Crane, and a mysterious third party that is quite familiar with Wayne and waiting to strike when the time is right.

Bra film. Mycket action. Men skulle verkligen klassa detta som en actionfilm. Dom har fått till mörkheten i Gotham City på ett bra sätt. Men jag tycker inte riktigt den kommer upp i samma klass som Tim Burtons Batman.

Sony Ericsson W800 får iTunes stöd

Sony Ericssons Walkman-serie av Sony Ericsson W800mobiltelefoner har lyckats bra i konkurrens med Motorola ROKR som är den första iTunes kompatibla mobiltelefonen. ROKR har inte direkt imponerat featuremässigt och den enda stora fördelen är väl dess integrering med iTunes. Nu ska dock en finsk hackare lyckats komma förbi detta till en stor del, han har nämligen skapat ett script som låter dig synkronisera din iTunes låtlista med din Sony Ericsson Walkman-telefon. Scriptet heter talande nog “iTuneMyWalkman” och även om det har vissa brister så kan det vara ett trevligt komplement till iTunes-användande Walkman-ägare.

Bruce Lee challenges the underworld to a Game of Death

Product Image: Game Of Death
My rating: 2 out of 5

Bruce Lee plays Billy Lo, a HongKong based movie actor, who is a box office draw. His girlfriend, Ann Morris is a singer who is also climbing to the top. Now it seems the syndicate wants Billy and Ann to join their “management firm”. But Billy knows that they will be treated like property, so he refuses and tells her to do the same. So they try to “encourage” him to join but he still refuses. He would be advised that they will not stop, so he must stop them, permanently. He is even more hesitant to do that but when an attempt on his life is made, he fakes his death and alters his appearance, and decides to go after the syndicate; taking them out one at a time.

Riktigt dålig. Beror säkrt på att filmen till största delen inte innehåller Bruce Lee, utan det är stnad-ins för honom, då han tyvärr dog innan filmen färdigställdes.

Microsoft höjer säkerheten.

I nya Xbox 360 kommer säkerheten vara högre, vilket ska göra det svårare att modda sin Xbox för att spela kopierade spel eller använda icke licensierad programvara. Microsoft säger att hackers säker till slut kommer lyckas hacka Xbox 360, men att det kommer ta längre tid då Microsoft nu ser över hela produktionskedjan.

En av de bättre Bruce Lee filmerna jag sett när jag tittade igenom boxen med fem filmer.

Every Limb Of His Body Is A Leathal Weapon!!!

My rating: 3 out of 5

Chein is a city boy who moves with his cousins to work at a ice factory. He does this with a family promise never to get involved in any fight. However, when members of his family begin disappearing after meeting the management of the factor, the resulting mystery and pressures forces him to break that vow and take on the villainy of the Big Boss.

Som de flesta av Bruce Lees filmer. Liknande story osv. Kanske låter som jag inte tyckte om den. Men tycker den var underhållande. Tror jag har svårt att smälta filmerna från förr. Även om de haft så enormt inflytande kring hur martial arts filmer görs idag.

Some memories are best forgotten

Product Image: Memento
My rating: 4 out of 5

Point blank in the head a man shoots another. In flashbacks, each one earlier in time than what we’ve just seen, the two men’s pasts unfold. Leonard, as a result of a blow to the head during an assault on his wife, has no short-term memory. He’s looking for his wife’s killer, compensating for his disability by taking Polaroids, annotating them and tattooing important facts on his body. We meet the loquacious Teddy and the seductive Natalie (a barmaid who promises to help) and we glimpse Leonard’s wife through memories from before the assault. Leonard also talks about Sammy Jankis, a man he knew with a similar condition. Has Leonard found the killer? Who’s manipulating whom?

Underbar film. Överaskade mig verkligen när den kom 2000. Tycker den är den näst bästa filmen som kom det årdet, efter Requiem for a Dream. Enormt cool idé med att visa filmen “baklänges”. Härligt också med ett väldigt öppet slut.

Welcome to the Real World

Product Image: The Matrix
My rating: 4 out of 5

Computer hacker Thomas Anderson has lived a relatively ordinary life–in what he thinks is the year 1999–until he is contacted by the enigmatic Morpheus who leads him into the real world. In reality, it is 200 years later, and the world has been laid waste and taken over by advanced artificial intelligence machines. The computers have created a false version of 20th-century life–the “Matrix”–to keep the human slaves satisfied, while the AI machines draw power from the humans. Anderson, pursued constantly by “Agents” (computers who take on human form and infiltrate the Matrix), is hailed as “The One” who will lead the humans to overthrow the machines and reclaim the Earth.

Detta är den första DVD jag köpte. Köpte den så “tidigt” att när jag köpte en DVD-spelare till datorn för att se denn visade det sig att mitt grafikkort var för slött. Hade inga problem när jag nu kände för att se filmtrilogin igen på projektorn. Fortfarande lika bra. Men 2:an och 3:an kändes faktiskt bättre nu. Mycket härlig popcorn-action 🙂
