Grabs: The New Palm webOS 1.4
As a new Palm device owner I felt the need to blog about this cool new update for the phone. the biggest one being video capturing, editing and EASY sharing and uploading. This update is now available for customers on the Sprint network in the US and on the O2 UK, O2 DE, O2 Ireland, and Movistar networks in Europe. The update is expected to be available for Palm webOS phones on other networks soon. Highlights of the latest update include:
The ability to capture, edit, and share video: Not only can you easily shoot video footage from your Palm webOS phone, but you can also make quick edits and upload your footage to YouTube or Facebook (or send them via email or MMS) with just a couple of taps. See the video capabilities in action in the video below.
Get more done faster: The Calendar, Phone, Messaging, and Email apps have all been enhanced with new features to simplify common tasks (many based on feedback from our customers). For example, in the Calendar app, you can now dial a number that appears in the subject of an appointment. In the Email app, you can now sort by date, sender, and subject. In the Phone app, the Call log offers more options to easily connect to a contact (such as via SMS). And there are some new shortcuts for zipping from one app to another (for example, moving from a chat view to a phone call with that person). You¹ll also see improved performance in these apps.
Enhanced notifications: The LED in the gesture area now lights up and pulses if you have a notification (even when the screen is off). You can also customize notification sounds in Messaging, Email (on an account-by-account basis), and Calendar. And there are new notification sounds in the ringtones library to give your more customization options for your alert.
Your phone will automatically update within a few days once Palm webOS 1.4 is available on your carrier. You can also trigger the update using the Updates app

BMI Racing 610hp Mazda Rx-8
Mazda frequently recognizes it's top tuners on their website and our friends at BMI Racing were just featured! A screaming four rotor that runs SPEC clutch for time attack.
This was a very exciting project for us to get involved with and under the hood is a 4 rotor engine! Here is a quote from the Mazdaspeed website about our product, "All that power is introduced to the pavement via an EMCO four-speed transmission fitted with a SPEC triple-plate Carbon/Carbon clutch, SPEC flywheel and a limited-slip rear differential provided by Tomei."
Here is a quick peak at the drivetrain:
SPEC triple plate carbon carbon clutch
SPEC Flywheel
Tilton Bell housing
Tilton Super Starter
4 Speed EMCO Transmission
ACPT Custom Carbon Fiber Drive Shaft
1.5 way Tomei Limited Slip Differential

A-Trak x Travis Barker Live Show
"Today MTV announced that Travis Barker and I are working together: we’re building a live show which we will be premiering in LA at the Roxy on March 9th & 10th (tickets go on sale tomorrow). I’ve been itching to work on a new live project for a while so I’m really excited about this.
Of course one can’t help but think of DJ AM at this time. All I can say is I’m proud to fill those shoes. What I’m doing with Travis will be considerably different, which I think is important. I can’t wait to put my own spin on the concept." - A-Trak

Random OD: Drake Dropping The Ball?
Los Angeles based DJ Skee is not only an established DJ, he is also a marketing pro who has lent his skills to various brands. Due to his experience it is no wonder why he has a lot of opinions on different ways to monetize the music industry.
Skee recently spoke to XXL magazine about different ways to monetize the industry and how Drake could have moved the music business forward but instead dropped the ball.
"I don't mean to give away the secrets on what I'm working on, but imagine going to company X, who cuts a check to have Drake be a spokesperson for the brand, then pays to create a music video that features and can also be cut into a commercial for company X that's shown on TV to millions of people thousands of times," he wrote this week. "To top it off, the consumer has to go to Drake's website to get the entire song (or mixtape/album) for free, where before they download they're forced to watch that 30 second music video/advertisement about the product...In the event it went nowhere, company X isn't committed to wasting a ton of money, and if successful, Drake is making more money than he could imagine. Immediately, if successful, this changes the entire model of the music business...In this marketplace, especially where the economy is, Drake went the 100-percent safe route, and at the end of the day, did what he felt was best for him. Maybe I'm looking too much into it and the rebel side of me just wants to see something new shake up everything, but I really think Drake could have revolutionized the music game, and to some extent, the entertainment and advertising industries. For someone with so much against him yet was able to do it all himself to just drop the ball at the buzzer disappoints me. I just think of what could have been."
A lot of people will take this as Skee hating on Drake but after looking at his statement with an open mind, one has to admit that Skee has a valid point.

Exclusive: Alexander McQueen Found Dead
London- Today the fashion world loss an icon as British designer Alexander McQueen was found dead in his flat in London. The British papers report that the 40-year-old designer took his own life by hanging himself. McQueen committed suicide days after his mother’s death last Tuesday. His company, who is referring to the designer by his given first name, had this to say in a statement:
On behalf of Lee McQueen’s family, Alexander McQueen today announces the tragic news that Lee McQueen, the founder and designer of the Alexander McQueen brand, has been found dead at his home. At this stage it is inappropriate to comment on this tragic news beyond saying that we are devastated and are sharing a sense of shock and grief with Lee’s family.
McQueen was scheduled to show his contemporary line today at New York Fashion Week but it is now cancelled.

Dope Sheit: Siri Virtual Assistant App
It’s been over six months since I first heard of Siri, the DARPA-inspired smartphone app that pledged to take all the hassle out of… well… just living your busy life. It’s a virtual assistant that can take care of menial tasks, things like finding restaurants, hearing reviews, and even booking tables — all with your voice. Siri asks simple questions and reacts to your answers, and while it seems to have lost some of its military feel since its DARPA beginings, it’s a great companion to your happening lifestyle. And did I mention, it’s free! I like free. Check out the demonstration video and hit up the App Store to do your downloading. If you’re on some other smartphone platform besides the iPhone you’ll have to wait, it’s iPhone only for now. With all the DARPA geeks working on this, can your very own Cylon assistant be far off? By your command.
