Watch out: there’s fake Nokia N95 handsets about!

It’s all about flogging knock-off Nokias nowadays. At least, that’s what appears to be happening on eBay, where fake Nokia N95 8GB phones are increasingly popular. Check the YouTube video above, where someone’s helpfully outlined the difference between the real thing, and one of the fakes – which apparently are often claimed to be the Asian model of the handset. Buy one, and you’ll soon be swearing about the weedy camera and lack of GPS, Wi-Fi, Symbian or, er, 8GB of memory. And in any case, we bet you can get five for a pound on Deptford Market, rather than shelling out on eBay…

EeePC with Every Hack Possible GPS, Bluetooth, 802.11N, Airplay FM transmitter, SDHC card reader, Corsair VoyagerGT, Conexant Modem

This has been my little project the last couple of weeks. A massive internal modification to my Eee 4G. It includes the following: ● 2x USB hubs ● Bluetooth 2.0+EDR ● GPS module with antenna ● Voyager GT 4 GB flash drive ● SDHC card reader ● FM transmitter ● Draft-N wireless adapter with a third antenna from a Wii. ● Everything connected via a dip switch It's quite weird that Asus decided to leave that much free space unused in the Eee. The Eee could be slimmer and thinner if they really wanted to. Anyhow, let the pictures tell their story. I've created a Wiki page with all the nitty gritty details. USB hubs The first USB hub mounted next to the memory bay: Second USB hub over SSD drive: GPS GPS DIY kit from Ebay stripped down to only the necessary parts: GPS antenna mounted on the left-side of the display. I had to remove 4 plastic stubs to make it fit: GPS module mounted over the ethernet and audio chip: Bluetooth Bluetooth adapter mounted under the GPS antenna on the left si...

Eee pc Hack : Installing HSDPA Module on Eee

Well, apparently hacking Asus Eee pc is being a new addiction for JKKMobile. Last week this creative soul successfully transfor his Eee to a 7-inch tablet pc by making its Eee screen to a touchscreen .Addicted to hack his little machine, the guy trying to add an internal HSDPA module to Eee and success. Video after the break…. This hack required a ZadaCOM 3G+ HSDPA modem and need some soldering skill. This hack is applicableon any Eee pc without the extra pcie slot.

Load OSX 10.5 Leopard on the eeePC

So, ever since I got the eeePC I’ve loved how easy it is to tinker with. Since I’m not a Linux guy, I dumped the Xandros preload and opted for Windows XP so I could you my EVDO USB datacard and blogging software easier, but I wondered could I install OSX on it? And, after trial and error - you can! The only problem is that the eeePC only supports SSE2 instead of the SSE3 that Leopard is coded for. Kinda a bummer, and will require some extra tinkering to coax the OS on the eeePC. Thankfully Adam’s awesome tutorial over at Lifehacker provided an excellent foundation on how to do these hacks. First, download the Brazil Mac Hack from OSX86 Scene. This patch helps you create a X86 version of Leopard you can install on generic PC’s. Once that is done, you will need an DMG of Leopard, if you have a Mac you can create and Image in Disk Utility - just make sure your self created image is called osx-leopard105.dmg and it should be saved on your desktop. Or you can skip all the steps below and ...
