All major development work will be done on the Mozilla trunk, and these releases will coincide with Gecko version revs." Yahoo...

Well, I never heard of it, but they’ve been here since July 7, 2005. I found a link to the new Google Toolbar for FF on the main Google page and from there a link to the Google Firefox extensions page. Apparantly Google has already made three extension, being ‘Google Toolbar’, ‘Google send to phone’ and ‘Google Suggest’ of which the latter is my favourite: it auto-completes search terms that you enter in the Firefox Search bar. Another interesting note I found was in a recent GoogleBlog entry by Justin Voskuhl, in which he thanks the Mozilla foundation...

Looking for the Bluetooth software (A2DP Profile)? Get it at YSE   My latest purchase are the latest Bluetooth Headphones available for the HP iPaq model I have (rx3715). As a matter of fact they seemed to be the only Bluetooth Headphones available for my model, according to many people Bluetooth hands free kits do not work on this particular range thanks to HP’s lack of a decent audio gateway hardware/software. The Product: I received the product in the post yesterday (19th July 05) after purchasing it from eBay at £28.99 (+2.50p&p). That is officially the cheapest...

"People have tried modding their iPods using wood before, but it took the genius of ZapWizard to create the Real Wood iPod. Hand carved from a solid piece of African hardwood to a thickness of just 2mm, the end result has to be seen to be believed. Wood grain is the new Apple White! I’m not gonna lie – I was dead impressed when I saw this, I just wondered if the click wheel actually worked! To see more view the following: Bi-Tech ZapWizard
