We had an intriguing discussion about bluetooth hacking today evening, while me, Ravish and few other friends of ours were having the usual coffee break at Cafe Coffee Day, some of us believed that this is not possible but then we found out that there are certain applications which if used correctly are capable of hacking the mobile phones in the vicinity of your bluetooth network. It has been successfully tried on Sony Ericsson or Nokia cell phones.

I am always on a look out for the softwares and new upcoming developments for my windows mobile. The most basic things sometimes get cumbersome while browsing on the windows mobile.
One such issue with most mobile web browsers is that they generally don’t support the additional plugins and add-ons that work great on the desktop operating systems. This is prime problem with windows mobile.
Using the websites like del.icio.us to store and share your bookmarks, it is a major hurdle to submit bookmarks using a Pocket Internet Explorer. Only good hope is that some people have done efforts to build and develop add-ons that can help window mobile users.
One great news for the Windows Mobile users is that someone has developed a del.icio.us plugin for the Pocket Internet Explorer. This plugin is written in C++ and requires Windows Mobile 5.0 or newer, and the .NET Compact Framework 2.0. Read more about it here.
Many of us have been looking for virgin mobile ringtones, I’m sure you already know you can get free ringtones and wallpapers, but how exactly do you do it? To get free ringtones and wallpapers (without using a promo code or a special promotion), you need to either have a data cord for your phone, or get on a web browsing plan. The web browsing plans are only about $5 a month or so.
Such web browsing plan on your phone will let you download some ringtones (kazaa, bittorrent, torrents, etc) or make your own ring tones using thier software. Take the ringtones and upload them to putfile.com or any other file sharing website, and then take the URL that putfile gives you, and enter that URL into your phones web browser, this makes it easy for you to download it on your phone. After entering the URL to the ring tone or wallpaper, your phone will automatically save the ringtone.
The url you get will most likely be something like http://www.putfile.com/songname.midi. You must type the exact location of the ringtone in order for it to download.
