AMD 45nm Phenom II ES hits 6ghz
Well... the title pretty much says all that needs to be said. Click this link for more
If that title didn't say enough already, then your going to feel pretty lame when you read the following:
Amd has an engineering sample of the new 45nm Phenom based on the Deneb architecture and it hit 6ghz with LN2 cooloing in Austin, Texas on November 20th when the temperature outside was 52 degrees and.... why the hell are you still reading?
Expect a lot of people to actually hit 4ghz stable this time around. AMD is back, thank god for competitive pricing.

I got a new phone
AT&T released the HTC FUZE last week and I was the first person...and the only person in Santa Barbara waiting in line to get it.

The HTC FUZE is the exact same phone as the HTC Touch Pro only AT&T decided to change the number keys to look like a keypad on the number keys and remove the front camera which actually had no purpose other than to take pictures of yourself (The video conferencing fincionality didn't work very well apparently) .
Some people were a little wary about the change buy I found that this increased my typing speed. Overall the phone is very comfortable to type on and text messaging has never been more easy. It's code name is also known as the HTC Raphael known by those who might frequent the xda-developers site for some really cool apps.
I avoided the G1 because of all its current issues.
I avoided the iPhone because it's a device for Mac owners (Sync) or people that cannot program their own alarm clocks (it just works and there is nothing you can do to change it).
My Fiance has an iphone and overall it is much more intuitive to use, yes. But at the same time I feel like I would be stuck with another peice of Mac proprietary [insert negative word here]. I like just knowing that I will have the ability to insert a 32MB MicroSD card in the near future. I also like to be able to swap batteries without having to send my phone in for a few weeks. I also like how I didn't have to create a proprietary plan through Apple. I cannot even begin to tell you how much more money I'm saving than she is with extremely similar plans. I won't rant or rave about how awesome this phone is because everyone has their own tastes. I am a modder so I needed a modders dream phone... you cannot get that with any other phone... not even you Nokia! (Although the N-95/96 did have my interest for a little while)
I have yet to really mess around with it and install a mod OS to remove the bloatware, but overall I will give the phone a 9/10 so far. 10/10 if it had breasts.
It has a few minor lag issues due to the bloatware and I have yet to get the GPS working.
I'll post a PART 2 on the HTC Fuze someday...
