  1. Kenteris on Gene Doping: Genetically Engineered Athletes · · Score: 1

    reece's biggest star might drop out of the Athens Games after missing a drug test, shaming the host nation as it opened its first Olympics in more than a century. Greece's Olympic Committee will meet Saturday to discuss the bizarre case of sprinter Kostas Kenteris, the 200-meter Olympic champion who is accused of dodging a drug test and was later hospitalized after a motorcycle crash. A source within the committee, speaking on condition of anonymity, told The Associated Press that one topic at the meeting will be whether Kenteris should withdraw from the games. Even if he drops out, the International Olympic Committee probably will proceed with its doping case against him. A hearing was set for Monday. Kenteris and fellow Greek sprinter Katerina Thanou were in a motorcycle wreck Thursday night just hours after drug testers failed to find them in the Olympic village.

    Sentimental Trailer,

    It's getting Slashdoted, so lets Spoil the Trailer:

    Background music is (What A) Wonderful World, Louis Armstrong, and story is following lyrics from the music.

    Blue stars, clouds, light/sun, then unzooming and showing our pretty little planet.

    And then.... BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM, Earth exlodes!

    Familiar title "DON'T PANIC" shows...

    Good job :).

  5. Re:They forgot GPS on HP Releases New iPAQs · · Score: 1
    Well, they've forgotten:

    better screen display

    more colors, currently cell phones are produced with 115K colors

    gps

    i don't see biometrics anymore

    more and more memory, 20MB iPAQ store and standard 64 MB ROM is weak for this beast

    But hey, they need to leave something for next releases.

    It will be very interesting to see competition's answer after this.

  6. Ugly, anyone? on HP Releases New iPAQs · · Score: 1
    I'm owner of iPAQ 5 serie and the only reason why I'm not buying this 6 beast is ... they are ugly.

    This retro design is too much. Compaq did better job in designing before.
