In American, we always get the bad rep for being the most unhealthy individuals in the world and although that may be true. Look at what our counterparts in Asia are eating. The promotional McPepper is not just a Big Mac, but 2 Big Macs with a lots of black pepper sauce. With all the heat that the Big Mac has gotten in the States for its spread on health concerns, I’m guess the Mega McPepper is not good for you…
BTW I had one the other day and it’s not too bad 
The iPhone Dev Team has released PwnageTool 2.0. This jailbreaks iPhones/iPod Touches running firmware 2.0 to support non-App Store third-party application. The first-generation iPhones can also be unlocked, but the iPhone 3G cannot be unlocked or used with BootNeuter.
I tested this and the Pwanage Tool is flawless. Everything has worked for me so far and I provided an outline of what I did to get my iPhone 1st Gen unlocked and jailbroken with the 2.0 firmware.
Warning: Jailbreak / Unlock at your own risk. I will take no responsibility what so ever for what may occur before, during, after the Pwnaing process. I tried it myself and was successful. Please proceed with caution.
To Jailbreak and Unlock a first-generation iPhone:
Last Friday, China’s first Apple store opened in Beijing. In time for Olympic Games I suppose. The store is selling all Apple products except the iPhone because it has not launched there yet.

VB’s new secret project as been announced to the world: Qore, an interactive program on the Playstation Network. The premier episode includes in-depth exclusive and never-before released content on upcoming PlayStation titles such as SOCOM: U.S. Navy SEALs Confrontation, Star Wars: The Force Unleashed, Secret Agent Clank, Soul Calibur 4 and Afro Samurai, as well as the latest Blu-ray Disc trailers, an exclusive SOCOM: Confrontation theme with an invitation to the SOCOM: Confrontation beta, art galleries and other surprises.

The introductory price for Qore is $2.99 for a single episode and $24.99 for an annual subscription of 13 episodes, using your PLAYSTATION Network wallet.
Today, the iPhone 3G finally comes to Hong Kong and I stopped by to party with the mac heads.
Only the 1,500 lucky preregistered customers, which were chosen randomly will be able to get an iPhone 3G in Hong Kong; thats is at least until Three is able to get more supply (I’m guessing it will take at least 2 months). 
There are no long lines for the iPhone 3G in Hong Kong due to the pre-registrations process they have setup.
The 1,500 iPhone 3G owners will get a special gift pack that includes a limited iPhone 3G case.
No reason for me to complain. Fortune has done the analysis and it turns out that Hutchison Three in Hong Kong and Macau is the cheapest way to get your hands on a iPhone 3G with a plan.
Some comparisons (all expressed in U.S. dollars for the equivalent of a 2-year contract):
* Hutchison in Hong Kong: $955 (500MB voice and data) to $1,532 (2,200 min., unlimited data)
* O2 (TEF) in the U.K.: $1,698 (75 minutes, unlimited data) to $3,588 (3000 min., unlimited data)
* AT&T (T) in the U.S.: $1,879 (450 min., unlimited data) to $3,318 (unlimited voice and data)
* T-Mobile (DT) in Germany: $1,366 (500MB data) to $3,374 (5GB data)
* Rogers (RCI) in Canada: $1,624 (150 min., 400 MB data) to $2,932 (800 min., 2GB data)
AT&T wireless is overcharging iPhone users for no apparent reason. This is nothing new and has gone on since the inception of the iPhone (one year ago). More recently I was a victim to this foul practice, racking up over US$7000 in false data usage. I refused to pay this outragous amount, thus I disputed the charges for over two months until ATT finally credited my account. The credit was applied in increment, why? I have no freakin’ idea. All I know is AT&T does not know a think about customer services. If it wasn’t for the iPhone, I would have left AT&T a long time ago.
I found this Do-It-Yourself Resignation Letter that Wired contributing editor Mat Honan created on TechCrunch. This is a great tool to have given the madness surrounding Yahoo. I am guessing it is not much an environment anyone wants to work in at the moment.
Jake: I think its time to put this to use and get the hell out of there.
I recently came across Charice Pempengco video on YouTube and I was blown away. She is a 16 year old girl from the Pillipines (Manila) and she clearly has the voice of a Mariah Carey or a Whitney Houston. Her stage presence is out of this world and her charisma will very soon maker into a international superstar.
Charice Pempengco started singing at the early age of three. Her mother and aunt has been her coach throughout the years. She has appeared in countless television spots in the Philippines, but did not reach international notoriety until her appearance on Star King (a Korean show) which was uploaded onto YouTube. After generating million upon millions of views on the net, it caught the attentions of major television networks across the globe and since then Charice has signed a record deal and has appeared on Ellen, Operah, and many popular talk shows.
