Let's Go to the Movies! (blogs.sun.com)
Happy Friday everyone! This week has been busy getting in gear for a lot of COOL and exciting things in the software world at Sun. Earlier this week, Mary Smaragdis, sent around a very cool email to all of us bloggers here at Sun and I couldn't pass up the opportunity to let all of my readers know the news! Get Smart featuring the extremely funny Steve Carrell and actress Anne Hathaway hits theaters today and Sun has some pretty prominent product placement in it. This movie is sure to be a big summer blockbuster, so I look forward to seeing it on the big screen sometime this weekend. What a better way to beat this heat that we're having here in Northern California then going to the movies and laughing for a few hours? Oh, and if you are wondering what Sun products are starring in the movie (and in the still below) it is none other than our Sun StorageTek SL8500 Modular Library System. Pretty sweet, huh? Also, Heidi aka SDNGal (and my partner in all things social media) and I shot a new video for Sun Total Access Network that I will be putting up shortly. Don't forget to stop by and check it out! Alright, I am off to enjoy the weekend...I hope you have a great one too!

Samsung is launching a Web site for educating people about Blu-ray (which has the BD-Java flavor of Java ME CDC) and for providing tech support.
See:
Samsung Blu-ray re-education camps
Here's a quote:
...if you?re like most people out there who might not even know the difference yet between Blu-ray and regular DVD, and have questions like ?Will Blu-ray discs play in my current DVD player?? then Samsung wants you to head over to its new Blu-ray Resource Center on its website.Great. The more people find out about Java ME CDC, the better. Slowly, Java ME will take over the world... Mwahhh-ha-ha-ha... Brain, Brain, Brain, Brain...
