Microsoft Kin One and Kin Two to go up for pre-order on May 6th, shipping on May 13th?


Microsoft's always said its Kin phones would come to Verizon in May and Vodafone in the fall, and now it looks like an internal Verizon email has spilled the details for us: Kin One and Kin Two will go up for pre-order on May 6th, and they'll "launch to all channels on May 13th," according to these screenshots. We can't confirm it yet, but we'd imagine tween hearts are a-flutter all over the country. Just remember: Kin's not for sexting, now.

iPad 3G works on T-Mobile, can be hacked to send text messages


Here's a pair of interesting iPad 3G hacks for your lazy Sunday -- first, Apple's tablet is apparently unlocked out of the factory, so trimming a T-Mobile SIM to micro SIM size will get you up and running on EDGE with no further hassle. Not terribly useful in the States, but good news for Europeans who'll have several carrier options right out the gate. Secondly, MuscleNerd of the Dev Team has discovered it's apparently possible to send text messages from a jailbroken 3G iPad using a T-Mobile or non-iPad AT&T SIM -- the stock AT&T SIM restricts SMS and calls, apparently. Check videos of both hacks after the break.

Show Luo: Starlit Warrior takes the stage; Thanks parents for raising him

The first of the 3 consecutive concerts for the "2010 Show Lo Wu Fa Wu Tian World Tour" at the Coliseum had taken place last night. Spending $15 Million HKD for stage effects, giving the audience of the Coliseum their first of AS-3D, and on top of that Show performed countless dances, each performance as spectacular as the last, heating up the entire crowd!

While Show was doing a pre-concert ritual, he had covered his head in a hoodie. The fans that were there all screamed, "Husband, Wishing You a Successful Concert!" But Show didn't seem to make too big of a response at the time, but greeted his fans in private later. When 8:30 PM came around, it had turned out that he had some purple in his hair, so he was saving that show it during the concert. His guest for the night was Stefanie Sun, and a boss Pang Wei Ren brought his lady companion to support the concert, and to avoid media cameras, Chen Hui Hong sat between the two .

Usher: “Talent Shows Are Ruining The Music Industry”

Just weeks after appearing as a mentor on the current ninth season of American Idol, Usher has blasted TV talent shows for contributing to the demise of the recording industry.

(This coming for a man who’s latest single is entitled “Lil Freak.”)

The multiplatinum-selling crooner is frustrated with hit shows like Idol and The X Factor, which he credits with making celebrities out of talented singers only to cast them aside months later.

“The true art form of music is being lost, because it seems so easy that everyone can do it, and that it can happen overnight. Television is a lie. It can’t happen overnight. The artist who thinks that it can just comes and goes,” he says. “The reason why great singers cannot exist in this time is maybe because they’re not properly managed, and maybe they don’t understand the full gamut of what being an entertainer is. We’re dealing with an industry that is slowly but surely dying, every day.”

Conan Breaks Silence! Slams Jay, Tells Fans "I Didn't Get Screwed"


It's no secret that Conan O'Brien has been legally prohibited from appearing on television in any form since his nation-captivating ousting from NBC. That is, he was until today.

The once and future late-night host was finally able to break his silence about his treatment by the network (which, team allegiances aside, is hard not to acknowledge as bad), his new gig and, of course, Jay Leno, in an enormously anticipated interview with 60 Minutes conducted during his tour stop in Seattle.

Show Luo Suddenly Kisses On Rainie Yang's Cheeks

In yesterday's second show of Show Luo's 3D Show World Live Tour concert, Show invited his girlfriend from idol drama "Hi My Sweetheart" Rainie Yang as performing guest. The two acted like a couple that they held hands during performing. Rainie also leaned on Show's shoulders and bit his finger. When the two pretended to kiss on lips, Show suddenly kissed her cheeks and that caused fans to scream. Rarely exposing her back, Rainie wore a revealing top that showed backstrap of her bra.

Rainie said: "Today's outfit is sexier than the ones I wore during my concert, but it's just kinda transparent, good that I wore a pretty bra and took precautions. The crew said the stage is high and viewers won't see a thing if I exposed something, but I was afraid Show would see it!" Show laughed at Rainie exposed, said she made male fans who were sitting on the top to take pictures constantly. Talked about Show kissing her cheeks, Rainie said: "Just to suit with the MV scene, I pretended to kiss but I didn't know he would kiss me. He kissed on my cheeks too when we were filming. Show is very gentleman, I said he's daring after kissing me." Rainie joked if Show really did kissed on her lips, she would kick him away. Rainie then sang "Rainie Love" (雨愛).
