How did your kids spend the summer? Mine? So far by watching Phineas And Ferb about a thousand times, but this video has inspired me to build a Rube Goldberg machine over the holiday weekend. I doubt you’ll ever find a group of kids so happy about putting a beach ball in a bucket. Awesome. [...]
The Samsung Galaxy Tab is going to sell well. It won't be a blockbuster like the iPad, but it should still do alright mainly because it's the first consumer-worthy Android tablet. Samsung can even price the tablet well north of the iPad's $500 starting price. It will not matter. People will buy it even if it's, I don't know, $800. You might not, but there are enough Android fanboys that will.
Rumors have popped up over the last 24 hours about the Tab's price. Some European retailer's pricing has leaked out although Samsung is saying it's all speculative because the official pricing hasn't been announced just yet. But still, it makes you think. The pricing ranges from €699 ($890) to €799 ($1,020) for the 16GB and 32GB respectively. Remember, the Galaxy Tab comes with a 3G modem and there likely will not be a WiFi-only model because Google requires cellular capability for the Android Market. But for a quick minute, forget that the iPad offers a bigger screen and twice the storage for the same price. It doesn't matter.
For reasons unknown, Tokyo-based accessory maker Thanko keeps churning out "spy" gadgets. This time we get a watch [JP] that looks quite bland from the outside but features a micro camera that can shoot both pictures and video. Another selling point is that it's Thanko's first spy watch that's waterproof (IPX8 certification) - isn't that great?
It’s a fact that some PC games are better played on a gamepad rather than with a mouse and keyboard. Sure, there aren’t many, but sports and racing games come to mind. That’s why Logitech just released three DualShock-ish gamepads. The $24.99 Logitech Gamepad F310 brings all the basic functions with a familiar control scheme, [...]
Sony in Japan introduced [JP] two high-end headphones today, the MDR-Z1000 and the MDR-EX1000 (an in-ear model). And both models boast some pretty good specs. The MDR-Z1000, which is pictured on the left, features 5Hz – 80kHz frequency response, 24Ω impedance, and 108dB/mW sensitivity.
Spotify, the European streaming music service (that's awesome), recently inked a deal with Sonos to allow the service to work on Sonos' home devices. Here we have a brief demo of the magic in action.
Probably the most striking thing I've seen so far here in Berlin was this: an array of SDXC Cards, from 64GB all the way up to 2TB. Now, I know SDXC cards aren't exactly new—they were first shown off publicly more than a year ago—but actually seeing them in the flesh, so to speak, prompts the question: what's the hold up?
Clever: Calendar Scarf I Want A Complete Set Of These Excellent Puma Cargo Bikes Buy Direct From The Nikon Store Take Your Gaming Outside: The Arcade Lounge Chair Thou Shalt Not Surge
What a great idea. Pull the thread and, as the year goes on, the dates of the Calendar Scarf disappear in a pile of yarn on your floor. Or you could hook up the other end to an automatic knitting machine and keep things tidy. [via Swiss Miss]
The big Apple event on Wednesday came with not one, but two updates to iOS, but unfortunately only 4.1 is actually imminent. 4.2, which will bring several new features to the iPad in particular, will be arriving in November. The news got kind of buried in the rush, but if you’re looking for official information, [...]
One of the big conflicts in battery tech right now is how to keep the things at the right temperature. Nissan and Mitsubishi are going with air cooling, while Tesla, Chevy, and as of today Ford are all opting for liquid temperature regulation. Since few electrics are really on the road, it seems there isn't sufficient data to go with one over the other.
Toshiba has dropped a pair of new camcorders at IFA, both of the genus Pistolgrippus. The P20 is the chubbier of the two, though that's not saying much, since the S30 is only 19mm thick. Once you're past the point where these things slip into your jacket pocket, though, a millimeter here or there doesn't really signify much. Good for them, though.
So this popped up on the FCC website today, and it’s all very mysterious, but it looks like Netgear and Roku may have teamed up to make a streaming media box for the home, not unlike the HP product that was released the other day. The FCC filing shows that the device has HDMI, composite, [...]
This is still just a concept, but the cruciform Power/Strip surge protector does more than keep your gadgets pious. Oversized adapters and bricks are welcome on its spreading crossbars, and a full 12 outlets means no more arguments among your disciples over who gets to charge first. [via CNET]
Bad news if you own a Toshiba Satellite T130 notebook. It’s got a flaw. In fact, the CPSC (Consumer Protection Safety Comission) just issued a recall for about 41,000 notebook computers, siting a flaw in the plastic casing around the AC adapter plug. Apparently there’s a problem with the DC-in harness that can cause the [...]
So you've got an emulator installed on your Android device, along with a few ROM, and you think you're pretty cool. Well, I can pretty much bet you that [Sk3tch]'s geek-fu is better then yours. He took an NES controller, connected it to a Bluetooth module, and plays his NES on a controller, while you fumble around with your SEND and Home buttons.
These stylish Puma Mopion bikes, designed by Biomega, are focused on on carrying capacity and lightness. The frames are aluminum and as you can see, differ from traditional and hardtail designs. Personally I like to keep my stuff in a rolltop like the Soyuz or Vandal, but to be honest, when I need to pick [...]
Big Avatar fan? Bought a 3D-capable TV just so you could watch it again in all its glory? Well, you might want to sit down. Panasonic and 20th Century Fox have arrived at a deal whereby the upcoming 3D Blu-ray version of the film will only be sold to people buying new Panasonic displays.
Looking for a very, very small USB drive? Well, LaCie has got you covered. The new MosKeyto is about as small as I can picture these things getting. It comes with a little cap and a way to attach it to a keyring, but other than that it’s just your standard tiny USB 2.0 drive. [...]
Good news if you're a Comcast subscriber and you've been looking into their High-Speed 2go product. Comcast just announced that they've picked Novatel as the provider for the USB modems used in their mobile broadband service.
