iPhone 3G free* in UK with O2 - Will O2 Ireland follow suit?

Not likely, knowing those market -gouging toerags! However it’s an interesting precedent for the new iPhone.

Keep the dearly departed close- digitally!

I’m surprised that these aren’t yet available for human remains! Probably just a matter of time.

If you’re somehow able to gaze upon the Digital Photo Urn without emotion, you’ll find a fairly useful product. Still, we can’t help but be a little creeped out by the notion. Nevertheless, those with differing views can certainly procure one of their own, which was meant specifically to hold the remains (or at least some of them) of your lost pet and continually show pictures of its life on the built-in 7-inch display. In case you’re still not freaked out, the unit even supports audio, so you can “hear the precious barks, whines and purrs anytime.” At this point, we highly doubt you care about the 256MB of integrated storage space, USB connectivity or Oak / Walnut motifs, but those not shaken can secure one now for around $250.

The Heist is Back

Having survived the recent Yazsoft debacle the MacHeist team has returned with another very familiar looking software bundle to broaden the reach of the highly successful and frequently controversial software discount promotion. As with previous heists this one is donating 25% of all sales to charity.
