UK ATMs set to offer WiFi access, free for BT and iPhone users

BT Broadband customers and O2 iPhone owners, rejoice — some 2,500 ATM machines near you will soon be converted to serve as free WiFi hotspots, courtesy of BT Openzone and Cashbox, perhaps the most mismatched pair of commercial metaphors ever put together. The initial rollout starts with 10 machines this week and numbers are expected to steadily increase. Non-BT users and iPhone heretics wanting to join in the fun will have to shell out £5.88 ($10) for 90 minutes or a more reasonable £9.79 ($16) for 24 hours.

Autobots and Decepticons Agree: Palm Pre Rulz, iPhone Sux [Transformers]

Slurp)

You may have thought, after eons of punching each other in movies with nonexistent plots, that Autobots and Decepticons wouldn’t agree on anything. But as proven on Attack of the Show, they both agree that the Pre bests the iPhone.

Video Game - E3 2009 - Attack of the Show

Thanks to Fractal the Meek for dropping a ~~Communist~~ international-friendly video in the comments.

We may have to change out opinion on this most contentious of debates. No, not the iPhone vs. Pre; we’re talking about the new film version of Brideshead Revisited vs. the classic 1981 miniseries. [Thanks, Stephen!]

iPhone 3GS takes plunge in pool while shooting video… and lives to tell the tale

Now, we’re hoping this isn’t some elaborate hoax perpetrated on the kind citizens of the internet, because if it’s real, it’s amazing. Here’s the deal: a man capturing video poolside with his iPhone 3GS somehow loses control of the device and ends up dunking the entire phone… while filming. Miraculously, he manages to fish out the handset and it’s still rolling. We don’t know what the lifespan was / is beyond this clip, but obviously long enough to upload the video or transfer it to a computer. Impressive stuff, though we strongly suggest you don’t test this one out on your own. Check out the full video after the break.
