Blackberry Thunder Images

RIM’s answer to the iPhone 3G is the Thunder or Storm depending on who you read. Crackberry.com has photos of the Thunder’s keyboard and list of features.

  • Tactile Response - when you press on the Thunder’s screen, it pushes in “just” a little bit (the whole screen is sort of like a big button) and you get immediate “real” feedback - you hear an audible clickety sound, and can feel a buzz in your finger where you actually pressed on the display.
  • Full QWERTY and SureType entry - hold the phone in landscape mode and you can take advantage of a full-qwerty keypad. Use the phone in portrait mode and you can enter data on a SureType keyboard. You will be able to choose/change your screen/keyboard orientation at anytime.
  • Screen is made of glass and will feature multi-touch - the Thunder is said to be utilizing WebKit for it’s browser engine (same as the iPhone), so hopefully that means a solid web browsing experience for the Thunder.

New BMW 7 Series

The battle between Mercedes and BMW’s flagship models continues with the new 2009 BMW 7 Series. I’m more partial to Christopher Bangle’s design for BMW, the last few years have seen my eye wander toward Mercedes’ new design language. The new 7 Series could change that.

Are You Paying $100 For a Tank Of Gas?

I just paid $60 to fill up my baby Audi, I thought that was a lot until I read about people paying $120 to fill up. If it helps, FYI an Abrams tank gets four gallons per mile so you could be doing a lot worse.
