Just saw this at Uncrate.com. This is the downright bizarre iPhone photo add-on called the iPhone Lens Dial ($250).

After watching the replay and reading the tweets, I think it is very unfair to say that Pacman didn’t deserve to win and that Marquez was robbed of a win. Pacman gave Marquez one heck of a fight.

I can say that Pacman was a victim of pre-conceived outcomes that when a close win was declared, everybody doubted it. It was just so sad to see that instead of being happy and proud, Filipinos saw the fight as one big question mark.
