Wowza. Consider me impressed. It took Microsoft 3 years to develop Windows Phone 7 Series — but its only taken 2 weeks for some far-too-talented dabbler to recreate the look and feel of the new OS as a skin for older Windows Mobile handsets, relying on nothing but screenshots and demo videos. Get ready for tons of fake Windows Phone 7 videos and people saying “No! Seriously! I swear my buddy has Windows Phone 7 on his 3 year old WinMo handset!”. Read the rest at MobileCrunch > >

I knew you had to pay a little extra to get Windows , but $100,000 to get Linux on your Mini 10n netbook ? Good lord! What are the manuals written on? The skin of unicorns? Thanks, GT!

Dropcam gets an updated iPhone App

I like a secure household. I like to back up my seismics with a perimeter of screamers and I like to keep a webcam trained on my front door. One problem, however, has been viewing my perimeter remotely with my iPhone. It is a problem no more. Dropcam , makers of $199 wireless webcams, have released an updated iPhone app that let’s you add cameras to your system with a minimum of fuss and muss. Each camera pops up on the app as its started and you can view images over Wi-Fi and 3G anywhere in the world. The App is free and each camera costs $199 . I personally use Vitamin D for my home surveillance but this looks like a good solution for folks on the run from slamhounds.
