Droid X vs Iphone 4 Camera Comparison



Here's a simple comparison of the two hottest phones (8/8/2010): droid x camera (left) versus iphone 4 camera (right). Zoomed to view the same frame.

The pictures were taken during similar times, with the iphone 4 taken slightly later (as you can see from the sunset coloring) from a similar vantage. Highest quality settings on each aside from "widescreen 6mp" mode on the Droid X.

Here is the full droid X 6mp 16x9 view (not sure if blogger compressed it at all)




And on the Iphone 4 camera

Jason Campbell traded to Raiders for 3rd and 4th Round Picks (rumor/very early reports)

There are multiple sources reporting that Jason Campbell (Redskins 1 year tender 3.1mm) has been traded to the Raiders for 3rd and 4th round picks. These aren't the best sources like ESPN but they are not just blogs or forum posts either, this may be all innuendo but the timing, the compensation and the trade all make perfect sense. Since it is still early it is unknown if both of these draft picks are for the 2010 or 2011 draft.

These reports make a lot of sense: the Raiders are losing faith in JaMarcus Russell and a 3rd in 2010 plus a conditional 2011 pick around the 3rd, 4th, 5th is likely to be Jason Campbell's trade value. Look for a major announcement later today or tomorrow as the ink dries, or we will see if this is all a hoax.

The Redskins get a GM: Bruce Allen

While NinjaTickets.com is still recovering from malicious attacks on our servers, we are excited to hear that our home team, the Redskins, have hired a GM for the first time under the tenure of owner Dan Snyder. Bruce Allen, formerly with the Tampa Bay Bucs and son of George Allen former Redskins coach, is the Redskins new GM and EVP of football operations. Allen worked with Gruden in Tampa (but not on the super bowl winning team). Allen is a top negotiator and cap analyst, but not considered a top recruiter unlike Vinny Cerrato who officially stepped down on 12/17/09. Cerrato will not retain a position with the Redskins. Rock Cartwright said of Cerrato: "I wish him the best and hopefully I don’t see him down the road."

It will be interesting to see what this hire forebodes for the Redskins. Will Allen have complete control over football operations? Is this a part of a push to get Gruden on the sidelines? What happens if Zorn wins out (It is long been rumored that Zorn is gone after this year if unable to pull off a huge turn around.)

As a Redskins fan this is an early Christmas present. It is definitely a step forward for the Redskins and a great move by Dan Snyder; the question remains though, is this the end of fantasy football in Washington?

NinjaTickets.com Under DDoS Attack!

We will be back up ASAP. In the mean time, I've had to face how out of date Ninja Ticket's blog is and I'm going to start keeping this up again.
