If you are a dog owner, you might have heard that chocolate is poisonous to dogs. Well, according to sources, it is toxic, but not unless the dog eats a certain amount. In other words, chocolate may have to be treated sorta like alcohol for dogs and do in moderation.
We’ve all heard it, “Don’t give your dog chocolate it will kill him”. We’ll how true is it you’re probably wondering. Do I have to rush him to an emergency vet if he ate one of my M&M’s?
The truth is chocolate contains theobromine that is toxic to dogs in sufficient quantities. This is a xanthine compound in the same family of caffeine, and theophylline.
The good news is that it takes, on average, a fairly large amount of theobromine 100-150 mg/kg to cause a toxic reaction. Although there are variables to consider like the individual sensitivity, animal size and chocolate concentration.

Canadians are upset about the high prices of the new iPhone 3G and what will they do to bring down the prices?
They are going to boycott iPhone 3G phones until the telecom companies bring down the price.
What do I think?
It’s a great idea as I have been guilty of boycotting iPhone for the last 2 years or so. (although I do own an iPod Touch, nothing wrong with that)
My boycott has to do with the fact that iPhone hooked up with AT&T’s slow network. Even with the new 3G, I won’t buy one until “everyone” starts telling me it’s so fast instead of “it’s so slow”.
Here’s some news you can read up on Canadians:
Solution to high iPhone prices is not to buy one
One answer: Don’t buy the iphone

Yes, the new Garmin Nuviphone does look a lot like the iPhone but better in some ways especially the GPS part.
Will it live up to its name?
Probably, Garmin’s not known for making cellphones so we will have to see how durable and stable this phone really is over time. Then again, Apple wasn’t known for making any cellphone either.

That said, if we do see this phone in the states, it will likely show up either on AT&T or as an unlocked phone that people can purchase and stic a T-Mobile or AT&T SIM card into. It also has Wi-Fi connectivity, and while the stats don’t go into specifics, I imagine it’s 802.11b/g. Pricing is not yet available, but the phone will be available in the fourth quarter of this year.

In the recent news that the 3G iPhone was launched with a price of $199 by Steve Jobs, it’s only a hoax or bullshit because now consumers will make up for it with higher data plans.
Of course, you don’t need the data plan if you don’t plan on using broadband access but then what’s the point of getting an iPhone?
My guess is that AT&T just released their 3G technology that probably still sucks as everyone who buys the new 3G iPhone will become the guinea pigs.
If you want to be a pig, go ahead, but for me, no thanks. I will stick with proven brick-and-mortar Blackberry with Sprint’s EVDO for now.
