When they first came out, they went from free to pay to…

I guess this is a call out for help

Posted on June 17, 2012 by Percy Kwong

I’m at the point where I can’t support this blog due to the traffic I’m getting.  I really need some donations or something.  I’m pushing about 5 GB of data a day and due to my divorce, I can’t afford to support this continually. I’m not asking for donations, although, they would help, but I…

Posted on May 30, 2012 by Percy Kwong
