In this particular case, the US District Court suppressed evidence of child pornography on a hard drive because proper warrants were not obtained before imaging the hard drive and calculating MD5 hash values for the individual files on the drive, some of which ended up matching known MD5 hash values for known child pornography image and video files. More details at Kerr's posting." Update: 10/28 16:23 GMT by T : Headline updated to reflect that this is a Federal District Court located in Pennsylvania, rather than a court of the Commonwealth itself.

This weekend I have installed copy of Wordpress at home and found a way how to integrate iMatrix code to each post automatically. Process is simple. If you like to add this to yours - contact me. Soon, integration guide will be availalbe online...
One of popular blog agreed to test it today:)

Today, one of the most popular blogs about iPhone, iPhoneWorld.ca, integrated iMatrix. Each post is marked by iMatrix code in title. Now iPhone users can open articles directly from mobile phone just shooting a code from monitor. iPhone users get pages adapted pages for best readability.

Note (9/12): there is an application in the iBrickr PXL repository called 'Balls' which links to this page. I have nothing to do with that app; it was created by Grudgnor over at the MacRumors forum.
Those who have followed this blog will know that I like to like to play with unusual input methods (see my earlier posts on , ambient light sensors, and the SmackBook).
As it turns out, the iPhone has a built-in LIS302DL, a tiny 3-axis accelerometer. While some have attempted to use it from within the Safari browser (the Tilt game detects changes to the width of the browser page; it is basically used as a 1-bit input device), its potential is still somewhat untapped.
After a rather lengthy bout of reverse-engineering (I had barely touched ARM assembly before this), I finally figured out how to access the raw data from the accelerometer itself, as can be seen in the video above. Source code will be posted as soon as possibleis posted here. (update: yes, it is possible to access the accelerometer directly through UIKit without this hack -- however, you'll be locked to the default sample rate, which is too slow for some of the fun stuff)
