LightScribe Rullz



I have my new laptop for about a month. I knew I had a LightScribe drive but I didn't knew what the hack it was. Lucky me that I found searched on Google. So...if you don't know what LightScribe is, I'm gonna tell you. LightScribe is an upgrade to the optic drive that allows you to burn images directly into the discs(see the image above). It's pretty cool, since you don't have to use stickers that peal or markers that get smudgy.

BB5 Unlocking

Dejan, a coder from Poland, launched today a free tool for unlocking BB5 phones. It's the first free program to do that. Until now, unlocking of a BB5 phone would cost you about 40$. If you don't know if your phone is BB5 encrypted, here's a list of BB5 phones:
1. Nokia 3250
2. Nokia 5200
3. Nokia 5300
4. Nokia 5500
5. Nokia 5700
6. Nokia 6110 Navigator
7. Nokia 5120 Classic
8. Nokia 6125
9. Nokia 6126
10. Nokia 6131
11. Nokia 6133
12. Nokia 6233
13. Nokia 6234
14. Nokia 6267
15. Nokia 6270
16. Nokia 6280
17. Nokia 6288
18. Nokia 6290
19. Nokia 6300
20. Nokia 6630
21. Nokia 6680
22. Nokia 6681
23. Nokia 6682
24. Nokia 7370
25. Nokia 7373
26. Nokia 7390
27. Nokia E50
28. Nokia E60
29. Nokia E61
30. Nokia E61i
31. Nokia E62
32. Nokia E70
33. Nokia N71-N75
34. Nokia N80
35. Nokia N90
36. Nokia N91
37. Nokia N92
38. Nokia N93
39. Nokia N93i
40. Nokia N95

You can obtain the unlocking software from here. The bad part is that you can't use your USB cable to unlock it. You have to have a serial CA43 or DKU5 Nokia genuine cable, but it only cost about 10 bucks. For more information see the readme file in the archive.
I'm waiting for your feedback. Happy unlocking!

New configuration

While I was in Portugal I bought myself a new PC. The old one was obsolete, but this...Well...for me it's more than enough. So...here's the configuration:
* Processors: Intel Centrino Duo de 2,0 GHz
* 2 x HDD SATA 160 GB at 7200 RPM
* 2 x 1024 DDR2 RAM (upgradeable to 4 GB)
* Graphics Card: nVidia 8600M GS(256 MB DDR3 expandable to 1GB)
* BrightScreen Widescreen de 17" Monitor
* WiFi+Bluetooth
* Vista Home Premium
* Finger Print Scanner
* DVD-Writer LightScribe
* Weight 3,5 Kg
* Multimedia Remote Control
* Web cam
* Stereo Microphone

So...These are the main components of the laptop. At least now I can open Photoshop in less then 10 seconds.
