So, today I've managed to get hold of this monster 4.3 inches touch screen Windows Mobile device from a very nice gentlemen. The first thing I've got to let you guys know is - it's bloody HUGE and  it's bloody HEAVY ! Mind you, I have a Nokia 8800 Sapphire Arte which already feel extremely rock solid and on the heavy side (150 gram to be exact), but this HTC HD2 is heavier than the gem-stone leather clad Nokia 8 Series. Unbelievable !

Chateau Cosmo !

This is a great example of a Hollywood restoration, taking a fairly standard Southern California home and turning it into something extraordinary.

Porsche, Rolls-Royce, Jaguar, BMW and Infiniti Modifications from Wald International !

One at a time, fellas. That's how most aftermarket tuners approach their projects. But not Wald International. The Japanese tuning house is launching a new line of modifications for some of the most eminently desirable luxury sedans and "four door coupes" on the market, all at once.

Vyrus 987 C3 4V, The Most Powerful Production Motorcycle in the World !

Generally speaking, though there are a number of different classes of motorcycles in the world, there are a few universal truths that span all makes and models.
