Would you kill this cute little rescued polar bear cub?

after reading the above article. I'm wondering why the hell, animal activists are fighting whether to kill this bear or not. Some argue its wrong to rescue an abandoned cub and the zoo officers shouldn't have intervened. What difference does it make to this planet by letting this cute little cub to live? If thats the case, then that particular activist shouldn't be allowed to visit a hospital when he is ill and let to die - Amen.

The arrival of my dream gadget -- PSP!!

Fact: Almost 80% of the gals in US have iPods. So why would "Pavan" buy a girlie thing?? :D hehehe. Nowaysss, he wanted something way beyond iPod. Something, which is rarely seen in gal's possessions. Unanimously, the target locks on Sony PSP. What a cooool device is it!! lemme flaunt abt my PSP for a while.. :)

The evil Sony Corp. locks the full potential of a PSP by its proprietary firmware. But, thanks to Dark_Alex and others who decrypted the firmware and released custom firmwares aka Open Editions, which push the PSP far beyond what it was originally designed!!

Now, I can play games from ISO's, run Homebrew applications, take backups of my UMD's, play Flash games, run emulators and much more.

Custom Firmwares are better than Originial Firmware but there's a catch. Flashing the ROM inside the PSP has a potential risk of bricking ( turns the PSP into a $200 paperweight!! :) ). A little googling took me to http://www.pspiso.com/index.php?topic=31177.0 where "The__Android" meticulously explains the process to downgrade and then upgrade to a custom firmware even on a "downgrade protected TA -082" motherboard.
Now, I'm no more stuck at the 2.6 firmware :)

heres my psp's lifecycle: 2.6>2.71>1.5>3.10 OE-A (happy ever after??!! ;))

I can read pdf ebooks, browse internet on 802.11 b networks, watch movies, of course play mp3's and wma's and the most important "play coooool games".

Right now, i'm in "PSP heaven" downloading games for free and enjoying ;) I cannot be more happier with a handheld gadget than this!!

PSP is simply awesomeee!!! The carefully thought and super smart XMB (cross media bar) itself impresses any User Interface Designer.

I wish it had a touch screen :( but thats ok..i can live with it.

PS: ACCESSORIES REQUIRED TO ENHANCE THE FEEL.

1) Usb cable Just $1.95 at pcmicrostore.com includes free shipping (Best price you can ever get)
2) 2 GB pro duo card ( go for Ultra II from sandisk..Its better than sony Hi-speed pro duo)
3) screen protector
4) Extra battery and 4 in 1 charger from intec ( if you travel a lot )
5) Imtoo dvd to PSP converter ( software to convert ur dvd's into PSP format)

Essential Softwares for your PSP:
