Turn your Cell Phone into a VOIP Phone

A few weeks ago I discussed about a new software called Fring. It converts your cell phone to VOIP. And just when you thought there was just one, several others came onto the scene.
What this means is that within time cell phone and VOIP service will exist sooner than you think. It's all a matter of getting all the networks to talk together.
Here is a list of more VOIP providers for your cell phone.

Hopefull Microsoft will integrate this viewer on all future updates so that every computer is able to read the XPS file format.

Backup your Blue-Ray DVD's

** The following information is for experimental purposes only **

Right now this software is still in development but hopefully soon new software will be easily avaialble.
Do a Google search for BackupBluerayv021.zip and extract it to your hard drive. For title keys you'll have to goto www.aacskeys.com or try message boards.
Open the CPSKey.cfg file in the run subdirectory and manually input the keys for your disc. Then open the command line and type cd \backupblueray\run. Type Backupbluray.cmd z: c:\blurayrips\ where z: is your blueray drive letter anc c:\blueraysrips is the directory you created. Once you press enter you begin ripping the disc.

Backup your HD DVD

** The following information is for experimental purposes only **

Ready to backup your HD DVD's. Well you better get ready for some new help, because copying HD Dvd's are not that simple.
You'll need to goto Google search and look for a file named BackupHDDVD.
But downloading this is not the end. You'll still need title keys from www.aacskeys.com and www.hdkeys.com.
Once you install these programs you then have to have at least 20gig of space available from your hard drive and point to the HD Drive to rip and burn the disc.
It usually will at times take about a hour to process.
Once the disc is backup you then need tools to recompress the files for video and audio using an efficent codec.
Good luck and hopefully future software will make these rips simple.

Vista Manager maybe the tweak your looking for. You would be glad to know that after tweaking your computer. You will not only have a fast running computer, but a computer free of garbage software that manufactures load when you first purchased a computer.
