i-SOBOT, the smalles robot in the world
2007-09-10 08:35:02
If Asimov were still alive today we would most certainly be thrilled to see how robots steadily make this way throught, from a industrial environment, to peoples houses, the i-SOBOT being a great example . Weighing less at 1 kilogram, i-SOBOT is base on 17 actuators and gyro-sensors so it can move its limbs, walk and maintain it’s balance. All in all i-SOBOT is capable for doing 200 pre-programmed movements and recognizes 200 words. i-SOBOT can be controlled via remote or by voce. This little wonder of modern engineering costs about 299$ on Amazon.com. via Random Good Stuff


The return of the SanDisk Sansa View
2007-09-10 08:26:15
As you well know, earlier this year SanDisk introduced the Sansa View, a new widescreen flash-based portable media player. Right after this announcement , something came up and they had to cancel the release. At that time they declared that they wanted to “re-scope the product” and “develop a PMP that will meet the needs of the market” . The result is the all-new Sansa View, a completely different device that seems more like a proper successor to SanDisk’s much-loved Sansa e200 series. The Sansa View is a smaller player that does improve on the e200 series in lots of important ways. It can store up to 16GB, made it thinner (about 8.8mm at its thinnest), added better video codec support (MPEG4, WMV, and h.264), increased the screen size and resolution (to 2.4-inches and 320 x 240 pixels), eliminated that dedicated voice recorder button which we were always accidentally pressing, and replaced the sub-par music control buttons with a clickable scroll wheel

iTunes 7.4.1 already released
2007-09-08 04:50:41
Apple did already release a new version of iTunes tonight, 7.4.1, and we’ve found some tests that shows if update “fixes” the ringtone-renaming hack (if you really want to call it a hack) that lets users supply their own ringtones sans Apple’s $0.99 fee. This thing it may be legal (probably), but the hack did not continue to work just fine for us. The one who tested this feature was able to add new renamed ringtones but the iTunes 7.4.1 blockk the renamed ringtone workaround moving forward. The initial syncs went unblocked, but only until new ringtone files were added. We would apreciate if you leave us a feeback so please express your oppinion by commenting the article.

Toast messages to go
2007-09-07 17:49:44
How many times did you leave a message on a sticky note for your loved ones, on the fridge and no one ever noticed it? To many times, I’m certain. That’s why a toaster that’s capable of inscribing diverse messages on toast bread could be a spark of genius. And that’s exactly what the Sasha Tseng concept does. A toaster, that has on the superior part a plaiting on which we can write the desired note, input the slice of bread inside and wait… In the span time it would take a regular toaster to finish your toast, the gadget ‘writes’ your message, thus delivering a ‘eccentric’ morning note. That is of course if the family isn’t to sleepy to notice what their eating. Write the message… Introduce the bread and wait. And voila! Toast a la letter. As seen on Yanko Design.

Everun UMPC from Raon [Bloglines Clip Blog]
2007-06-05 15:17:16
Here’s a newsflash. For the first time we can se a UMPC with a vertical display. And yet it looks good and apparently easy to use due to its keyboard positioned under the display. My first notable impression is it’s weight. It weighs 460 grams, which is the idle measurement for a UMPC. From a specs point of view, i could see some very impressive things : a AMD Geode LX 900 processor, which works at 600 Mhz, 512 MB of RAM memory (can be extended to 1 GB), it’s enough to power this device and you can run Office like applications. The display is a 4.8 inch one, touchscreen, with a 800×600 resolution. The OS is Microsoft Windows Home Edition, it has Wi-Fi, Bluetooth and the battery life expectancy, announced by the Raon, is 7-8 hours for the standard battery and 11-12 hours for the supplementary one. It’s storage is a standard 60 GB hardrive and a optional 6 GB SSD. A notable feature of the device i

British Telecommunications PLC (BT) announced that it wants to offer phone services through PlayStation Portable (PSP).The British telecomuncation company is curently working on a sot wich enables them to make phone calls via the internet,using the Sony console.That requires the consoles to be fitted with a video camera in order to make video calls.PSP already has a Wi-Fi adaptor. BT says that the service will be extended for Europe,Africa and Australia.Bt will have full support from Sony Computer Entertainment Europe Ltd.But it seems highly unlikely that this sort of phone service will be available in the US or Asia because BT developes this service and not Sony. Last year the PSP sales droped considerably,under the Sony ecpectations,and so the company looks for new ways to attract customers.

Bang & Olufsen Form 2, a different kind of headsets

Bang & Olufsen Fom 2 are a pair of headsets, but not of the ordinary kind, but ones that wish to transpose acoustic quality of the Bang & Olufsen sound systems into a mobile toy, which allows you to enjoy your favorite songs on the road or at home, without any disruption from the outside. Of course this task isn’t a easy one, but the producers state that this pair of headsets achieve a perfect balance between bass, high and medium sounds, and those who’ve tested it apparently vouch for it. Form 2 impresses through it’s looks, in the true Bang & Olufsen spirit, the square shaped design of the acoustic unit is dazzling. The previous doesn’t have noise cancelling technology, so that it’s perfect for outside use, where it’s quite dangerous not to hearing in your sorroundings. On the first place however are ergonomics and confort , Form 2 being very light (68 g) and built in with a 3m cable, a bit too long to fit in the mobility concept, if w
