Eddie Murphy marries Tracey Edmunds

Sources say Tracey Edmunds and Eddie Murphy secretly got married last night in Tahiti. The couple has been saying for months that they would likely marry by the end of the year…and last night would most definitely qualify as right under the buzzer. Apparently most of Eddie’s family was not present and were still here in the states all week. Not sure why all this the extra secrecy was needed, but whatever. I also hear wedding pics will hit the net soon. Congrats to the couple.

JAY- Z opening Hotels in NYC

Doggs now you know that ain't right!!

Snoop Dogg has a nine-year-old son outside his marriage and the kid wants to be on Snoop's reality show, so he and his mother gave an interview to Star magazine. Julian Corrie Broadus told the mag that he hasn't seen his father in five years but that, "I don't want to be an actor, I want to be a baseball player. But I want to be on the show to get to know my family." His mother, Laurie Holmond, told the Star, I asked him [Snoop] to start seeing Julian again. He sounded sincere but has yet to come by... Calvin needs to acknowledge him."

Jay & Beyonce


These two were the most talked about couple in hip-hop this year.
I wonder if they’re going to keep their title next year or will someone else take the throne? Who knows? But with all those wedding rumors going around, it looks like we’ll see them at the top again in ‘08.

Hands-on with BetaBlue, JetBlue's WiFi-equipped Airbus


Generally we're the type to pass out the second we've stowed our carry-on items safely in the overhead bin, but on a recent test flight for a gang of reporters, photographers, Fortune 500 execs, and the obligatory PR team, JetBlue managed to keep us awake by magically letting us communicate with our friends and colleagues on the ground over IM and email. Actually, it takes a lot more than magic for the Airbus A320 named "BetaBlue" to bring limited WiFi connectivity to properly-equipped passengers throughout the single-class cabin: quite a bit of technical and administrative work went into getting this service off the ground, from snatching up and deploying a rare slice of 800MHz ground-to-air spectrum to effectively managing cell tower connections while traveling over 500mph to developing clients that would maximize the precious bandwidth being shared by so many mobile gadget lovers. Keep reading after the break for all of our impressions from this media preview voyage, and don't forget to hit up the gallery below for glimpses of the entire experience along with some of the screenshots you can expect to see in-flight...CLICK HERE TO CHECK OUT THE REST OF THE PICS http://www.engadget.com/2007/12/11/hands-on-with-betablue-jetblues-wifi-equipped-airbus/

Blackberry Bitches!!

Our friends over at BGR have revealed initial details of the 9000 series. Exciting stuff! Here's what we know so far:
Screen dimensions are going to be 480x320 / 320x480 depending on how you hold it! Looks to me that the device will be like the iPhone in that you can hold it portrait or landscape. Cool stuff. However, does this large display mean a touchscreen keyboard is built-in? No more tactile, easy to use keys? We'll find out soon I suppose...
The device will also have a gig of on-board memory and an Intel XScale processor. The processor is slightly faster than the one found on current iPhone models.
The 9000 will also have built-in GPS and WiFi.
We would also expect to find a built-in camera, but there are no details on that yet. No details on price either (of course).
Expectations have this unit up for sale in early 2008.
