I had found an interesting upcoming iPhone accessory at TouchArcade. The Belkin gaming controller accessory for the iPhone and it is in development.
The info claiming that the controller will support Apple App Store. If that true, this means Apple will be official support for the accessory in the iPhone SDK.
The other features of this controller includes 8 gaming button, audio output and Dock connector for power and syncing.

An advertisement for Apple's iPhone has been banned in UK after falsely claiming the gadget allowed users to access all content on the Internet.
The Advertising Standards Authority said it had received several complaints from viewers who said the claim was misleading because the iPhone did not support Flash or Java.
Flash and Java are pieces of software installed on almost all personal computers which allow people to access Internet applications such as multimedia, streaming video and interactive games.

The problems of Apple iPhone 3G network reception has been arise since after July 11st worldwide launch. Many claims suspect these issues are cause by the iPhone's antenna.
While the test conducted by Bluetest is reporting the iPhone's antenna are "completely normal". The results show the connectivity of iPhone was on-par when compared to a SonyEricsson P1 and a Nokia N73.
Steve Jobs has previously claimed that the issues were fix-able through software update. After that, the iPhone 2.0.2 update has been released and claiming it would fix the issue. However most of the users commented the problem still exist.
I believe most of the people won't forget the amazing facial animations videos showed at GDC'08 from Pendulum Studio's Alter Ego. Are we going to see these wonderful 3D facial animations technology in the next-gen gaming and animation? A big YES for me for sure.

When I was child, I always want my mum to buy some chick to me as pet but never came true. From the view of parent, the adorable little chick won't be the problem to keep them away from bring some little chick home. The main problem for them should be the chick grow up very fast, how to keep them in the apartment when the chick become chicken? Another reason maybe the recent diseases of the bird flu.
So that, a Japanese toy company has come up a solution with a robotic 'virtual' pet modeled on a 3 day-old chick. It will stay at chick and wont affected by virus forever haha.

The girl in the above video isn't real. Yes the girl does exist in the real world but the girl in the video just simply not record by her personally.
Credit to the Image Metrics Technology, real actress Emily O’Brien provided image with 35 facial poses in front of a pair of digital cameras. For the results, while not always perfect especially the eye emotion but still pretty extraordinary. This technology is already adopt by the film manufacturer in the Hollywood (Harry Potter) and games maker (GTA IV).
Maybe we have chance to see Bruce Lee and Jacky Chen showing there great effort in the same movie near future. Let's see.(Thomas)

Don't you remember the Hollywood's blockbuster "iRobot which on scene few years ago? My favorite actor Will Smith was a "half-robot" in that movie. Back to the reality, can you imagine that on one day, you found out that your girlfriend/wife who sleep beside you is a ROBOT!
Don't be too surprise when you are unfortunate enough to fall into this kind of circumstance. This is because a company over France is developing a robot women called "Perfect-Women" and now accept order. I'm kind enough to send a warning to my buddy here. On the other hand, my lovely sisters out there might have more competitors. Have a nice watch on videos below. (Thomas)
