A system admin is wreaking havoc in San Francisco.

Terry Childs, 43, pleaded not guilty in San Francisco Superior Court, after being arrested on July 13 for computer tampering. He will remain in police custody on $5 million bail, while his next bail hearing is scheduled for July 23.

Child is accused of changing the administrative passwords of San Francisco’s FiberWAN network system, which makes accessing the system impossible now without the passwords only he knows. Furthermore, his motifs for doing it still remain unknown, but suspicions are his actions may have been triggered by a conflict with a superior.

2 new Hard Rock Cafes are opened for business. - Hard Rock Cafe Krakow and Prague. I love all things HRC and I’ve been to cafes in Hong Kong, Kuala Lumpur, Rome, Amsterdam, Pattaya, Jakarta. I hope I can visit this new cafes for some t-shirts.

Now that there are a million 3G iPhones sold, it will be good to show you guys on how you can keep them looking spanking new. Add a good casing and screen protector, I’d say. Here’s the Maya case from Proporta, my fav mobile stuff company that goes for $ 19.95. It looks kinda classic to me and it would have been better if they plastered Lindsay Lohan’s pic on it. Ha

Now the new 3G iPhone is finally available and out in the big wide world, it’s only right that it is kept fully protected from everyday hazards - but not just any old protection, protection with a touch of style of course. :o)

The Maya Case will be ready to ship at the end of the month, so get ordering and be one of the first to get your mitts on this lovingly handmade pouch style case.

Great job, Steve Jobs. Apple has sold one million new iPhones over weekend and it would seem that the server problem on Friday did not hamper the spirit of people who want a piece of this new gadget. Its crazy. People camping out in the cold just to be the first. I heard some people in Hong Kong camped for 3 days. Hahaha. Imagine the toilet problem. Well, I won’t be getting one soon until they fix the copy/paste problem. I love my Nokia N95.

The original iPhone, introduced in late June 2007 in the United States only, sold about 270,000 units in its first two days. Sales topped one million by early September. The new device is sold in 21 countries.

“IPhone 3G had a stunning opening weekend,” Apple’s chief executive, Steven P. Jobs, said in a statement.

Steven Hodges, president for the Northeast region for AT&T, Apple’s only carrier in the United States, would not disclose how many iPhones it had sold, but he said the iPhone would be AT&T’s key device for the holiday shopping season this year.

Still, iPhone sales pale compared with those of established mobile phone makers, like Nokia, which sells almost 10 million phones a week, or the Samsung Electronics Company or LG Electronics, which each ship more than 100 million a year.

Nintendo on Monday introduced an accessory that improves the motion sensitivity of the Wii video game controller. MotionPlus works in combination with the built-in accelerometer in the Wii remote and the sensor bar within the video game console to deliver more comprehensive tracking of the player’s movements. As a result, the accessory, which attaches to the end of the remote, provides a one-to-one response of a player’s movements and the video game.

I will be keeping an eye out on the upcoming Engadget & Joystiq live from Nintendo’s E3 2008 keynote. I wanna see what Nintendo is going to dish out this year for us Wii fans.

The always-popular Electronic Entertainment Expo has returned to its roots this year, with the annual game show moving back to the Los Angeles Convention Center after a solo season on the sunny beaches of Santa Monica. Kicking off on July 14 and running through July 17, E3 2008 showcases several of the year’s biggest software titles from the industry’s biggest publishers. In addition, special tie-in events like Gamecock’s BE-3 Initiative and Activision’s offsite press conference will spotlight new software as well.

Think about summer, think about the beach, the sea and all that fun! Play-Asia is a sea of popular games, movies, discs and toys, come catch your long time favorites and discover lots more, join the many happy swimmers, sun bathers and octopus catchers at the seaside this summer!

Get ready to hit the beaches as the Summer Sale will commence from this very moment onwards towards the 20th of July, all in stock items will be reduced by 25% (yes you’ve read correctly, a whopping 25%!), just spot our Summer Sales mascot, the octopus, on our many product pages and catch him.

The octopuses are running loose throughout the website and only stay on a product page for as long as it is in stock. Some products are restocked regularly so octopuses come back every so often while others have limited availability so the octopuses never return once they are caught.

To avoid disappointment, get your baskets and water tanks ready and catch them as quickly as you can spot them to avoid disappointment. This octopus catching season is only going to last for a couple of days, start catching now and save plenty of cash in the process.
