Wireless Tunes… WiFiTunes… wireless music on your Windows Mobile device

Posted on by Daniel Kirstenpfad

The one interesting thing is that this piece of software for Windows Mobile is giving you the possibility to listen to music which is streamed to you – hopefully wireless – from your iTunes on your Mac/PC. The second interesting thing about this application is that it’s entirely written in C# (.NET Compact Framework) and the sourcecode is/will be available. How cool is that?

“WiFiTunes is a solution that enables you to stream MP3s from a computer running iTunes to your Pocket PC. Since I last posted on the product in January, the developer has modernized the look and made the software simpler in use.”

“A C# implementation of the DAAP protocol was written using AppleRecords as a reference so thanks to Chris for doing all that tedious work. Thanks also to SPAlarm for starting a fmod C# wrapper.”

The title says it all. There is a new version of Avantgo available. And this time it does work with the newly available ActiveSync 4.0.

So if you have a Windows Mobile 5 device and you’re wondering why you cannot automatically synchronize your AvantGo account then be sure you have this update installed.

protect your property: build yourself a sentry turret

Posted on by Daniel Kirstenpfad

A quite nice job with some very interesting features. Please notices that this is NOT a real gun – it’s an airsoft replica of a FN P90.
These guys made quite an impressive job: Their turret is completly computer controlled and finds and follows it’s targets autonomously.



“Notice the tactical LED flashlight is glowing on the left side of the turret. There is absolutely no practical reason for that.”

Beside the complete building description there is also a short movie of the Sentry Gun in action on the website:
