BLUNKETT WILL GO (Dec 15 2004 12:59 GMT) - BLUNKETT WILL GOFor some time I have been convinced that one of the most dangerous men in politics is justifiably about to be thrown onto the scrapheap. For 20 years I have been very concerned about this man ? with a bit of luck his ignominious dismissal will be an extra Christmas present. |

Turkey to begin EU negotiations ... (Dec 15 2004 12:58 GMT) - Turkey to begin EU negotiations Just heard that the EU parliament has backed a proposal that Turkey can start membership negotiations with the union. I understand the worries of those who are skeptical to allowing a predominantly Muslim country to join, but I don't see a better way of helping develop a modern, democratic Muslim state than at least allowing Turkey to discuss membership. Not that I'm too happy about EU to begin with. |

AOL Canada To Offer VoIP (Dec 15 2004 12:58 GMT) - Lev13than writes "The Globe and Mail reports that AOL Canada will today announce plans to launch a VoIP service, starting with Toronto and expanding to the rest of the country by the end of March. It will be the first AOL unit to sell VoIP anywhere in the world. "TotalTalk" will sell for $30 a month after a three-month discount, including unlimited local calling, 60 minutes of North American long distance, call display, call waiting, three-way calling and call forwarding. A premium service that includes 1,000 minutes a month of North American long-distance time will sell for $45 a month after a three-month rebate. In comparison, Bell service in Toronto costs about $50/month for similar features and a few hours of Canada-only long distance. |

Official Nintendo Game Boy MPEG4 Player (Dec 15 2004 12:57 GMT) - Flash memory Game Boy cartridges are always welcome around here, so seeing this MPEG4/MP3 player with a built-in SD slot was notable enough—then I realized it was from Nintendo themselves, which is even more surprising. Obviously, it's not designed to play games, but the unit can play back movies for up to 4 hours at the Game Boy Advance SP's native resolution (352 by 288 pixels) as well as play back MP3s with the screen off for up to 15 hours on a charge. I have no idea if Nintendo plans to bring the unit out to the United States, but since it should work with the DS just fine, there's no reason they couldn't (like taking away from the DS's momentum, I'm saying). For gamers I still think flash linkers that let you copy ROMs over are a lot more convenient (and you can get ones that use SD and MMC cards, I know), but since Nintendo has quietly been selling a ton of video content on GBA carts, I wonder if they're thinking about moving over to an SD-based content distribution system. |

New and Improved X-Wing (Dec 15 2004 12:57 GMT) - Well, I grouped up with some friends this weekend and we went out killing Black Sun pirates. My ship was just left in the dust as these master pilots in their tricked out X-Wings slaughtered everything in just 3 or 4 shots, while it takes me 10-20. Well, I spent some time getting some new equipment and tricking out my own ship, and now I can take these guys down in about 6 or 7 shots. It looks like I'm going to have to learn all this "Reverse Engineering" stuff if I'm to get any better tho. The big weapons that those guys are using simply won't fit on my ship due to weight restrictions. |

Prince of Persia: Warrior Within (Dec 15 2004 12:57 GMT) - This weekend I got Ubisoft's new game Prince of Persia: Warrior Within, the sequel to the very popular Prince of Persia: Sands of Time. So far, I'm loving it It's a classic puzzle game, with a few fights thrown in for variety. You spend most of your time dodging traps, and executing high-flying acrobatics to clear giant chasms. |

The End of an Era (Dec 15 2004 12:57 GMT) - Well, those who know me knew this was happening, but for the ones that didn't: Today I tendered my resignation at Z-Kat. Laura can testify to the fact that I've been horribly conflicted in the last few days/weeks over this decision, but it's done and I finally feel better about it. In a small startup, it's all about Risk vs Reward, and the Risk has simply become too high for me. I wish all the Z-Kat'ers (and Mako'ers) the best in "the project". |
