Sony introduces $2,000 BD-Live-capable BDP-S5000ES Blu-ray player - Engadget HD

Wednesday at 7:56 pm - Link

From the page: "While some other manufacturers are churning out Blu-ray decks with price tags closer to the magical $200 mark, Sony's bucking that trend by aiming squarely at those with bulging wallets and even fatter egos. The November-bound BDP-S5000ES one-ups the BDP-S350 by being BD-Live-capable (as opposed to BD-Live-ready) and boasts an Ethernet jack, external flash memory port, a 1GB Sony Micro Vault Tiny (gee, thanks!), Quick Start mode for getting those BDs spinning quicker and an ultra-special 14-bit HD video processor, which 'improves standard-definition and high-definition picture quality with the help of HD Reality Enhancer and Super Bit Mapping technologies.'" - Dave Dugal

NettiCats Firefox extensions, Erweiterungen

Wednesday at 4:40 pm - Link

From the page: "Allows to easily resize or even move textareas input fields and pseudo areas. "TextAreaResizer does not need a grip, just resize by right clicking (or optionally double-clicking) anywhere inside of the area. So dragging becomes an really easy task and the often sensible site layout remains untouched. "Additionally you can move whole textareas to another place. Double-click (or right-click and select Move) inside of an area and all areas will get unlocked and movable. The repositioned area will stay fixed on the place of your choice even if you are scrolling the page. Double-click once more to lock the areas again. The extension's options allow some manual adjustments (e.g. use context menu item instead of double-click or additional key modifiers for mouse gesture users)." - Dave Dugal

Wednesday at 3:28 pm - Link

This thread on the FriendFeed group answers the obvious question about how to find FriendFeed Rooms covering a specific topic. Up until now, rooms could only be found via existing memberships of your friends (or friends friends). Tim H. gives some brilliant options for finding rooms on any topic. - Dave Dugal

Seems to be a more refined, cleaner version of MenuManipulator. So far, I like Menu Editor a bit better. Note that, as of version 1.2.6, it doesn't support Thunderbird 2. - Dave Dugal

MenuManipulator 20060418.1 - MozillaZine Forums

August 29 at 2:04 pm - Link

MenuManipulator allows you to change the order of menus within Firefox. Since some add-ons append entries in the Tools menu (for example) in an ad-hoc fashion, this add-on makes cleaning up the clutter a breeze. - Dave Dugal

From the page: "Pioneer's long-awaited announcement regarding its 2008 Kuro-branded plasmas, the successors to our favorite TV of 2007, the PDP-5080HD, includes a total of six new models. The company is claiming that the 2008 HDTVs produce "five times deeper" black levels than the 2007s, and during a side-by-side demo that included both 2007 and 2008 models, the new display certainly appeared a bit darker in the blackest areas." - Dave Dugal

The all-new TH-PZ850U flagship series by Panasonic looks to be trying to give Pioneer Kuro a run for it's money. Features of the 65" model, due out in Fall 2008, include a 30000:1 static and 1000000:1 dynamic contrast ratio, and Internet connectivity with native YouTube support. - Dave Dugal

August 29 at 8:48 am - Link

From the page: "Pioneer's range of ground-breaking Kuro TVs will be largely unaffected by the company's announcement today that it is to cease plasma panel production. UK PR Fiona Pinkney has confirmed to TechRadar that the eagerly-anticipated G9 (9th generation) TVs will arrive in May as planned. The only change for the G10 sets (due 2009) will be that the plasma panels inside them will be sourced from a third-party manufacturer, rather than being made by Pioneer itself." - Dave Dugal

REPORT: Chrysler may sell Dodge Viper rather than kill it - Autoblog

August 28 at 3:27 pm - Link

From the page: "The Dodge Viper has been Chrysler's halo car since it was introduced back in 1992, but times are tough. Faced with the fact that it might not be able to continue making the brutish sports car, the Auburn Hills-based automaker is reportedly considering doing something that's never been done before by a domestic automaker (as for as we know): selling the Viper's future to a third party." - Dave Dugal

P4P: faster, smarter P2P | Storage Bits | ZDNet.com

August 28 at 12:59 pm - Link

From the page: "P4P speeds up P2P downloads by localizing network traffic. Standard P2P traffic gets spread all over the globe, so a single packet may go through a half-dozen costly high-end routers and thousands of miles of scarce ocean-floor fiber on its way to your PC. Metro-area routing is both cheaper for ISPs and faster for the users. " - Dave Dugal

From the page: "Recently, a significant threat to DNS, the system that translates names you can remember (such as doxpara.com[doxpara.com] ) to numbers the Internet can route (66.240.226.139) was discovered, that would allow malicious people to impersonate almost any website on the Internet. Software companies across the industry have quietly collaborated to simultaneously release fixes for all affected name servers. To find out if the DNS server you use is vulnerable, click below.

IGN: Pioneer Elite BDP-09FD Preview

August 27 at 1:33 pm - Link

From the page: "The BDP-09FD is Pioneer's latest Blu-Ray player offering and the first to feature BD-Live connectivity. But this beautiful piece of hardware isn't your average, garden-variety Blu-Ray player. The BDP-09FD is host to some of the most complex on-board audio processing we've seen on a standalone BRD player." - Dave Dugal
