Trophy_App

Finally a PS3 trophies app for Windows Mobile, big thanks to KUV1977 from xda-developers for releasing this. This is a very early version and will as such have bugs and missing features. Also, even though you can specify when to download infos, there will be traffic that may cause additional costs for you – depending on your network plan. The app needs CF3.5

Current Features
- Watch your rank and trophy-details (no PSN-password required!)
- Watch trophy-overview per game
- Watch trophy-detail per game (due to trophy-source hiddens are still missing even after achieving them – only in detail-mode, overview works fine)
- add friends and see and compare trophy-stats

Planned Features
- downloading of thumbs for each trophy
- recent trophies
- bookmark trophies you want to tackle
- credit screen for SDK!
- an icon and startlist entry (so far you have to start it from the install folder -sorry!)

CobaltController 0.1 – Sixaxis/Dual Shock 3 Controller for Windows Phone

Cobaltikus from xda-developers has been hard at work on a Sixaxis/Dual Shock 3 Controller for Windows Phone, he also has plans for adding wiimote support. Use your Sony Playstation 3 Controller (Sixaxis/Dual Shock 3) as a Bluetooth HID device on your Windows Phone. It’s great for games, mainly emulators. The developer recommend trying this with SmartGear Emulator.

Version 0.1 is now out . It’s stable and runs fine, but just limited in functionality relative to it’s capabilities. Nothing is configurable at the moment and there is no user interface.

Prerequisites – what you need before hand:

A windows mobile phone with a widcomm bluetooth stack. I fully intend to include support for the M$ stack but I’m not done yet. Verified runs on HTC Touch Pro2 and HTC HD2, verified does not run on HTC Touch Pro(1) due to it’s lack of a Widcomm stack.
A way to set the controller’s master address to your phone’s bluetooth mac address. I would absolutely love it if someone could provide a better way to do this, but for now I will share the method I used. See below in Attachments 2 for instructions.

Blu-ray vs HD DVD is finally over

Saijo George — Sat, 16 Feb 2008 20:11:40 +0000

As per engadget.com Toshiba is shutting down its DVD manufacturing facilities in Aomori Prefecture, Japan, while official word is expected “soon”. so the format war comes to an end and I am happy with the result coz I own a PS3 and don’t have to worry about HD-DVD becoming the default format
