Firefox

I just recently upgraded my primary browser from Firefox 1.5 to Firefox 2.0. I’m happy to see that it is more compatible with more webpage. I used to get syntax error when I tried to do the search in T-Net site but now new Firefox opens without any issue. While I was browsing through Lifehacker site, I came across some neat extensions that I though I can share with Firefox users out there.

Mysterious Nikon D40 DSLR

I was browsing in Engadget site and came across this leaked Nikon D40 DSLR which is supposed to be a budge DSLR. Apparently it has 6 megapixel CCD and 3 point focusing but lacks auto focus motor and a status LCD.

I guess we just wait for Nikon to actually release this product with the price tag on it. This will be a perfect DSLR camera for people who's considering moving into prosumer photography.
