The 32GB iPod Touch is just one of 100′s or evens 1000′s of electronic gadgets that we painstakingly search for on the world wide web. What makes the iPod Touch so special is the un-believable intuitive touch screen which as we all know is what makes sets the Apple iPod touch apart.
The Apple iPod Touch 32gb (3rd generation), is currently the best selling electronic gadget on the market, lets take a look and understand the reasons why.
Nobody is going to argue with the fact that the Apple iPod Touch is “The Best” Mp3 music player around

In this instance, the TomTom has gifted the XXL 540 with a 5-inch screen. Many thanks to the unit’s round corners, curved edges and relative thinness it’s not necessarily as visually imposing as the 5.2-inch Garmin Nuvi 5000 or 5-inch Uniden Trax 5000.

5. Rebel Canon EOS T1i 15.1 MP CMOS Digital SLR Camera
Canon rebel Ti digital SLR
This is the same body as the XSi, and therefore a bit on the smaller side compared to other digital SLRs. I have small hands, so the T1i is comfortable for me. If you have big hands, I can see this being a very difficult camera to use over an extended period of time. If you haven’t handled a Canon XT, XTi or XSi, I would suggest you go to a store and hold the T1i yourself before purchasing it online.
If you are getting this camera don’t forget to Buy the Sandisk Extreme III card , it works the best with this camera – Sandisk Extreme III card

September 18, 2010 in Camera, Electronics, Gadgets, Laptop, Refund Scheme, Sony VideoCamera
Not any people are aware of this scheme and its truly legit and many people in australia just miss out because they were not just aware of this scheme . Its called the “Tourist Refund Scheme” or you could also call it the “GST REFUND SCHEME” because essentially it is giving you back the GST portion of tax that you have paid on the items
The TRS enables you to claim a refund, subject to certain conditions, of the goods and services tax (GST) that you pay on goods you buy in Australia. If you wish to claim a refund, you must get an original tax invoice from the store where you buy the goods. All stores registered for GST will be able to give you a tax invoice
- This refund is possible because the duty on cameras has been replaced by the GST (10%)
- GST can be claimed back if purchased within 30 days of travelling
- Must show tax invoice at customs
- Claims at airports are available up to 30 minutes prior to the scheduled departure of your flight
- Must take goods with you through customs
- Minimum purchase $300 (incl GST) on the one tax invoice
- You can open and use the goods within the 30 days prior to departure
You can collect your refund through one of the following methods:
* cheque
* credit to an Australian bank account
* payment to a credit card
For passengers departing from international airports, the process will only take a few minutes. However, you should allow time to complete check-in, security and outwards clearance formalities and also allow for queues at the TRS facility.
Full details are available – You can download a copy of the official TRS brochure ( link Below)

Yes that’s right !! Jack, speaking at the “Black Hat Security Conference in Las Vegas” , was able to hack ATMs using a $10 master key available online
Your money: May not be as safe as you think. Security expert Barnaby Jack showed off three different ways to hack an ATM last week, including one particularly flashy method that left the machine playing music and spitting out twenties.he had brought on stage both physically.
He was also able to hack it remotely, so long as he knew the machine’s phone number or IP address. The second method allowed him to gain access to previous users’ stored PINs.
Patches have already been developed the systems, built by ATM-makers Triton and and Tranax, Jack said. Triton patched the issue in November 2009, said Bob Douglas, Triton’s vice president of engineering.
Here is the video Demonstration to hack ATM showed at the DEFCON Security conference
( Video not showing –> : url here : )
Exploiting bugs in two different ATM machines, the researcher from IOActive was able to get them to spit out money on demand and record sensitive data from the cards of people who used them. He showed the attacks on two systems he had purchased himself — the type of generic ATM machines typically found in bars and convenience stores.
Here is another video showing the “ATM HACK” and the ATM’s playing music and spitting out money
( Video not showing –> : url here : )
Criminals have been hitting this type of machine for years, using “ATM skimmers” “to record card data and PIN numbers, or in some cases simply pulling up a truck and hauling the machines away.
Tranax has had security problems before. In 2006, CNN reported that a Virginia Beach, Virginia, criminal used a keypad code to reprogram a Tranax machine into thinking it was dispensing $5 bills. Then, using an anonymous prepaid debit card, he withdrew $20 bills, but was only debited for one-quarter of the money he took. A manual showing how to do this, was reportedly available on the web.
Jack had planned to deliver the talk at last year’s conference, but it was pulled after ATM vendors asked for more time to patch the issues he’d discovered.

Check out some samsung mobile phones on amazon here
Samsung, in it’s ‘Global Developer Day’ event in Bangalore yesterday, announced their hotly anticipated smartphone ‘Wave‘, the first device based on the proprietary OS ‘bada’. Samsung has stepped up its smartphone war against newer competitors such as Apple by unveiling a completely new mobile phone platform, while Sony Ericsson is betting on Google’s Android to pull it into the future.
3.3-inch Super AMOLED WCGA
5 megapixel camera
Bluetooth 3.0
HSDPA and Wi-Fi
The Wave – which it expects to begin selling in Australia by the middle of the year.
By launching what will be one of the most powerful smartphones in India, Samsung have ushered the era of ‘superphones’ in India. Wave has a 3.3-inch Super AMOLED WCGA capacitive touch screen that displays 16 million colours at a crisp resolution of 480×800.
And unlike the iPhone, Wave supports Adobe Flash, opening the handset up to run advanced browser-based apps.
Samsung, in a event, also announced the ‘Samsung bada Developer Challenge’. The challenge gives Indian developers and opportunity to have a share of the US$ 2,700,000 prize money set aside for this worldwide competition. Even you can develop applications for the platform, which Samsung labels as ‘user-interactive, service-oriented, open and configurable’. The top Samsung ‘bada’ developer will win a grand prize of US$300,000.
It offers a 5 megapixel camera with auto-focus, Bluetooth 3.0, HSDPA and Wi-Fi. But it’s the 1 GHz Snapdragon processor that elevates this phone to the ‘superphone’ status. It will also have accelerometer, proximity sensor, and TouchWiz UI 3.0. Oddly, however, Samsung didn’t announce the price of the device in the event.
