Last Pirate Bay Co-Founder Has Been Arrested

The last free co-founder of The Pirate Bay, Fredrik Neij, was arrested in Asian yesterday November 3rd.  The 36 year old who moved to Laos with his wife and children to escape sentencing was taken into custody after attempting to cross the Laos border into Thailand.

Charges for “promoting other peoples infringements of copyright laws” were filed against all founding members of The Pirate Bay in January of 2008 but Neij has been eluding police for years until now. The other 2 founding members are Gottfrid Svartholm and Peter Sunde.


Although a May 2006 raid temporarily took the torrent search engine offline, changes to their domain name were made to avoid permanently going down. Even till this day, with the founders locked behind bars and all, The Pirate Bay’s website is still up and running.

PlayStation Phone 'Zeus Z1' caught on video again, this time you can actually see it (update)


Wow guys, we just spotted a new video of the PlayStation Phone, codenamed Zeus Z1, and this time we get a long, loving look at the entire device -- a refreshing contrast to last time's blurry tease. In addition to appreciating just how fat this phone is, and just how real it is, you can clearly see a "PlayStation" icon, which should hopefully put to rest any doubts that this phone will actually play PlayStation games. Check out a close-up of the icon after the break. Oh, and by the way, there's no audio on the video, your computer is not broken.

[Thanks, Sha]

Update: There's another video! Check out a brief look at the PlayStation app after the break...


Alexander Amosu introduces iPhone 4 Diamond Spider

The iPhone 4 is an exquisite gadget indeed, but with its sales surpassing 20 million units it takes extra effort to get noticed when carrying one. Fortunately the famous British jeweler Alexander Amosu will give you the chance with its limited edition Diamond Spider - a diamond-encrusted iPhone 4 with some exclusive features.
The sides of the iPhone 4 Diamond Spider are covered by 846 brilliant-cut VVS1-grade F colour diamonds totaling 5.66 carats (we wonder if those are as effective as a bumper in solving the antenna issues). You are free to transfer those diamonds to another handset or just turn them into some kind of jewelry when you decide to switch phones.
You can also pick any color for the back of your Diamond Spider iPhone - black, white (there Apple, was that so hard?) or any other you may want.

But as we told you - it doesn't end there. Every iPhone 4 Diamond Spider will come with a special golden number of your choice (the example given being 07XXX 111111). The price will also include a 24hr global concierge service, which promises to access the inaccessible for you.
And now for the pricing and availability - the iPhone 4 Diamond Spider costs £15000 and will be available in UK, Monaco, United Arab Emirates and… wait for it… Nigeria. Though, if you actually had the kind of cash to get one, we'd assume you'll be able to ship it to wherever else in the world necessary.
