No more support for older browsers.
I'm dropping support for old browsers on both sites from now. No one really uses them anyway. No new pages will have it, and slowly I'll remove old code as well.

Canon MP-E 65 arrived
The lens is a monster! Never looked that big even closed, but once you open it for 5x magnification, OMG... Looks like bazooka. I took a few shots to test it. Results sucked :( Very difficut to focus at 5x magnification. Now I have to get the angle viewfider from Canon. Quite a money trap all this macro thing :)

Two new reviews in Kukri section.
Added review of 18" Ganga Ram Special(GRS) and the AK Bowie. Galleries for both have been up for a while now.
HDS EDC 60XR received - Today I received HDS Systems EDC 60 XR. Lots of improvements over older Arc 4 and Arc 4p flashlights. Of course the price tag is a match, at 245$. Damn, those pocket flashlights are getting more and more expensive :) I'll write up a review once I use it for a while, but first impressions are good, it is an improvement.

That nanopod or iPod Nano...
Scratchy as hell. Especially in black color. By now everyone knows it, except the apple themselves of course. Useful advice from them, don't remove that sticker. Year right. What the hell is wrong with those designers at apple anyway. As apple proudly announced it took them 6 month from concept to the shipped product. Damn, those guys could've waited 1 more day to carry it around and see all the scratches. Still, very nifty thing to have, but apple sux0rz big time for doing this. Looks like it was almost deliberate. Mine received first visible scratch in 2 minutes after removing that plastic sticker, after I wiped it with cotton cloth. Sheezzz... By now, after over a week it looks real beat up, even though I carry it in separate pocket with its headphones.
