I just found out that Robert Schimmel is hospitalized following a car accident in Arizona. Schimmel’s daughter and son was also in the car when the accident happened. Apparently Schimmel 19 year old daughter was ay the wheel.

I wish speedy recovery to Schimmel and his daughter, as his son was unharmed in the accident.

Robert Schimmel’s “If you buy this CD I can get this car” is still in active rotation in my iTunes.

Everyone is an RF Antenna Expert Now.

Posted in Apple, Media, News, Tech, iPhone at 4:15 pm by 37prime

iPhone 4 has apparently encouraged people to become RF Antenna experts. Just look at the comments at Digg or Reddit, Apple-centric sites and anti-Apple sites. Everyone knows exactly what’s going on in the RF Antenna world. Not that it requires some kind of education in certain field to become RF Antenna expert.

I am for sure not an RF Antenna expert, but I always tkae everything I read with a grain or sometimes a boulder of salt. The last time I checked both iPhone 3GS and Nexus One suffers from the death grip issue. Even further, bot iPhone 3GS and Nexus One are dropping calls in the usual spots. Thanks AT&T. I do not have an iPhone 4, but I have tested a few of them. From what I’ve experience, my death grip skill must be really rusty. I could not drop any calls on the iPhone whichever way I held it. Then again it is likely that I was in the area where AT&T really pays attention to and providing really strong signals.

iPhone 4 is a big and convenient target. Everybody wants to be William Tell. Everybody is an RF Antenna Expert now.

Rant-o-rama: Leo Laporte needs to take a deep breath.

Posted in Announcements, Entertainment, Media, News, Rants, Tech at 8:12 pm by very

It is getting harder and harder to take Leo Laporte seriously. More and more Leo becomes more emotional about the news. Recently Leo calls Audible for the Android to be the killer app. Audible for sure has a great software for Android, but that’s not the problem. Let us all remind ourself that Leo Laporte and his TWiT network are sponsored by Audible. There are a lot of bias there. In the past, Leo was bashing WordPress and recommends SquareSpace. SquareSpace is also a sponsor of TWiT network.

Leo, whenever you read a news-piece you should stop for a second. You have been trolled too many times lately. Then again you’re still listening to the Microsoft P.R. that is Paul Thurrott.

Leo, your radio show becomes a playground for your own mistakes. A lot of “advice” you’re giving to your callers tend to be useless and wrong.

Anyway, this is all I can rant about for now.

Dear Steve Jobs, All I want for June 24th is a White iPhone 4.

Posted in Announcements, Apple, Media, News, Resources, Tech, iPhone at 1:21 pm by very

So, the iPhone 4 pre-order has begun. AT&T is having so much problems with the account verification. So, it’s not really a surprise. This is the fourth year AT&T having problems with regards to iPhone.

Besides the whole AT&T problems, apparently the White iPhone 4 is not available for pre-order or reservations. Should I send an email to Steve Jobs?

Another round of Cold is coming.

Posted in Announcements, Apple, Media, News, Resources, Tech, iPhone, iPod, iTunes at 12:26 am by very

I felt a little bit under the weather on Tuesday April 06th, 2010. I supposed I caught a Cold bug sometimes on Sunday or Monday. Unfortunately I am having trouble sleeping. I need rest now.

OK, I’m going to post this and try getting some sleep.

I’ll write more later today (Wednesday). As we all know Thrusday will be another Apple News Day with the sneak peak of iPhone OS 4 and I’m hoping the Developer preview will be made available on the same day.

As usual, Apple will be enforcing NDA on the iPhone OS 4 Developer Preview. I am sure I can show what they’ll be showing on Thursday.

Well, it is April 3rd and I’m too tired to go to the Apple Store for the iPad party.

Posted in Announcements, Apple, Entertainment, Media, Music, News, Resources, Tech, iPad at 2:08 am by 37prime

It is April 3rd, 2010 and Apple has been sending out the email about iPad being here. Let’s see. I did not pre-order one. I don’t really want to get one right now. I do want to go to an Apple Store to take some pictures and videos for the launch day. It is 2:10 AM and I’m tired. Went to see Bad Religion at the House Of Blues and I’m so spent. Still can’t sleep even though I’m so tired.

I’ll see if I have the energy to go to the Apple Store around 7 or 8 in the morning. The store opens at 9:00AM.

Still Got The Rootkit Blues.

Posted in Announcements, Applications, Apps, Media, Microsoft, News, Resources, Security, Tech, Troubleshooting, Windows at 3:10 am by very

From time to time I’d get a call from acquaintances regarding their computers. Usually it’s about the viruses, trojans, worms, spywares, etc.

Well, this time it’s a Rootkit!

I know that the most effective way is to wipe the hard-drive clean and fresh-install Windows. I opted to clean the system to see what kinda damges done on this computer. Thanks to ComboFix author!

I’m going to fresh-install Windows later.

Jason Calacanis, an attention whore.

Posted in Announcements, Apple, Comedy, Entertainment, Humor, Media, Movies, Music, News, Pictures, Rants, Resources, TV, Tech, iPhone, iPod, iTunes at 2:02 pm by 37prime

Separating from the “news” and personal opinion, that’s why I’m posting this on the blog part of 37prime.com.

Jason Calacanis is an attention whore.

For sure that Calacanis is not getting that much followers on Twitter as much as he hoped. I, Cringely picked up Calacanis’ tweets as story. Calacanis’ failed attempt at humor does show his true character, nothing but an attention whore. The only smart thing Calacanis ever done is selling Weblogs, Inc. to AOL for millions of Dollars. Since then Calacanis has been living large on the payout.

There I said it.
