Alright no more Samsung Galaxy S III rumors or leaks to worry about ever again. The spec I must say are incredible, but what is gonna count is the way the phone is gonna work.

Review : Apple Universal Dock (2010)…
Apple Universal Dock looks really nice, it keeps your iPod or iPhone protected, by keeping it off your desk, it looks great along side other Apple stuff and it’s really simple and easy to use… However, it’s really expensive, it doesn’t really add any functionality to your iPod/iPhone and the remote is useless… The dock …

One thing that is missing from Google Maps is point coordinates (Longitude and Latitude)… There is no way to get the coordinates of a point in the map… A very simple JavaScript i recently found was : javascript:void(prompt(”,gApplication.getMap().getCenter())); Just create a new bookmark on your bookmark bar and add the above code… It’s obvious that …
