Samsung plans to introduce a 7 mega pixel camera phone. Read a few details here. What is the use of a 7 Mega pixel phone. Doubt its going to fit into a shirt pocket. OK maybe now I can take pics of people at the office in odd poses and print at A3 size.

Coloured iEverythings

iPod, iBook or iMac mini they all look very cute so long as you are happy with just white. Yeah ok iPod mini is colorful, but I dont like the colors. If you love the design and technology but you want it in another color you can cisit Colorware. They even will color stuff for you. Maybe my wife would look good in a shade of alien green.......

Google Desktop

The Google Desktop search has come out of beta. They seem to have covered my gripe about it not doing pdf files. Happy. I liked this interface much better than any of the other desktop searches. It can also do plugins to add functionality.
