Apple supporters always bragged about how secure their devices are. Well, that might not apply to the iPhone. After upgrading to iPhone's latest firmware (3.1), lots of Exchange users complain they can't sync with their iPhone anymore. It's because the latest firmware finally honor the "Encryption required" setting of Exchange accounts. Therefore, older models of iPhone that do not support such encryption (i.e., those prior to 3GS) are disallowed to sync with such accounts.
It also means that prior to the release of this firmware, users of these older models might think that encryption was enforced but it wasn't the case! No wonder why critics keep saying Apple is still not very adaptive to corporate/business usages.

Topic of the day: That Wells Fargo Foreclosure executive
By now most of us have heard about the story of a foreclosed property in the expensive Malibu neighbourhood being used by a VP of foreclosure department of the bank that owns the property, Wells Fargo. (She was fired by Wells Fargo) I suspected that came into light because the neighbours did not think she belong to the community. Apparently I was not alone (guess what's her race?)

Star of the day: Patrick Swayze
Patrick Swayze died of cancer yesterday. Most people will probably remember him for the movies "Dirty Dancing" and "Ghosts." These two are certainly among my favourite movies.
RIP.
RIP.

Topic of the day: Who is Syko Sam?
According to news report, this guy is a fan of the horrorcore genre (a sub-genre of rap that is about, of course, horror) He was arrested for killing a female friend he made on MySpace.
Well, crime as a result of meeting people on MySpace is no longer news. What else makes this story more eye-catching? (1) He is portrayed as a rapper. I guess anyone who rap qualifies as a rapper, professional or not. (2) When he was asked how he committed the crime by a reporter, he responded, "Jesus told me to do it."
So, I am pretty sure there will be tons of comments condemning his musical preference and his religion.
