New Kenwood AV Amp

Paul Westbrook | 27 June, 2004 19:38

Kenwood VRS-N8100
Gizmodo has an article on a new Kenwood AV Amplifier. It plays MPEG-1, MPEG-2 and Xvid video files. Also it play MP3, WMA and OggVorbis audio files. There is a 10/100 Ethernet interface to stream formats.

I wonder how much this will cost when it comes to the US. Also I wonder what the video interface will be. In order to make most computer video content to look good on a tv, especially a Hi-def one, there will have to be a good line doubler. I am sure that the hardware on this box will be pretty amazing.

sshd through dns

Paul Westbrook | 27 June, 2004 19:15

A while ago, I wrote about how t-mobile silently traps SMTP traffic. Boing Boing has an article about some one who as done a presentation on how ssh could be tunnled through dns.

This seems like this could be a way to get free internet access from an internet cafe. But, I also think that this would be pretty easy to block. All a dns server would have to do is to not forward dns queries that are not in a known format.
