Batteries That Run Off Your Sugar 2007-04-03 00:25:00 Scientist from the United States have unveiled a new type of battery that runs off nearly any sugar source, so don’t throw out your Coca-Cola because you can put it to use, such as powering the battery! Not only does the battery run off nearly any sugar source, it also does it more efficiently than a normal battery runs off its chemicals. The scientist have shown great promise with the new “sugar battery”, a battery that runs off sugar, and that lasts three times longer than a lithium-ion battery on a single charge, the new battery might evenutally replace lithium-ion batteries. The battery is able to be used in a range of electronics, ranging from basic electronics all the way to advanced computers, and whats best is whenever you get tired of the electronics and throw them out for the dumpster, the battery is bio-degradable so it does not hurt the environment. ‘This study shows that renewable fuels can be directly employed in batteries at room temperature to lead to more ener Read more:Sugar
17 year old teenager builds homemade fusion reactor 2007-04-02 23:54:00 A 17 year old teenager from Michigan, who wanted to win a science fair, decided to build a fusion
reactor in his basement… talk about overkill! The project was no easy task, and required over 1000 hours for research and design (that’s over 2 months and a half of studying and planning if he spent all of his awaken time doing research for it). How did he managed to get the parts he needed for it? Well, from eBay of course! Now I don’t know what’s most surprising, the fact that it was a 17 year old that made a device that can fuse two hydrogen atoms together, or the fact that you can get the pieces for it from eBay.
Wii outsells PS3 in Japan 2007-04-12 00:46:00 The Nintendo Wii
is a huge success in Japan

Kronos USB Flash Drive Watch 2007-04-12 00:44:00 This idea from Kronos
is so good, I wish I had thought of it first. After all, USB Flash
devices are a useful necessity in today's world, and nearly every wrist has a watch. So why not combine the two?Anyway, the Kronos USB Flash Drive
is apparently just a concept now, but it probably won't be long before it becomes reality. I've heard one complaint that the watch could be waterproof, but most USB devices are not. Hopefully they will work out that bug before its release.Personally, I don't really use a watch anymore since I got my cell. I'm certain some cells come with USB download capacity anyway.
Toshiba 16GB Flash Drive 2007-04-12 00:43:00 Speaking of USB Flash
Drive related products, CeBIT 2007 has another cool display for a new type of Flash Drive
. Toshiba
presented its newest USB Flash Drive, which has a 16GB capacity.Does anyone know if this is the record? I know that the 1GB is one of the more popular models, and I've heard them go higher, but not this high. I have no idea how much this will cost, or when it will hit the market, but something tells me that it won't be cheap.By the way, Toshiba is also putting a 32GB SDHC Memory Card on display at CeBIT. Am I displaying a severe lack of tech knowledge by sounding surprised at the high memory potential of these devices? Are we already this high?

Bandai releases a 250000$ Gundam 2007-04-11 23:42:00 ForeverGeek writes about it :Japanese sure love their mechs. Heck, even I love “their” mechs, but still, I wouldn’t bring out $250000 for one. The figure is 125mm tall and weighs 1.4kg. Did I mention the price was a quarter of a million? Yeah, I think I did, and as crazy as this might sound on this particular day, I assure you that it’s true. Read more:Bandai
Sky shows off a new concept phone 2007-04-11 23:37:00 Sky have just revealed a new mobile phone
..Forevergeek writes about it :"Every now and then, cellphone companies reveals new conceptsof what they think that the future cellphones will look like. This isn’t the first time Sky shows off one of these phones, nor will it be the last. Their idea with this particular model was to make something that was thin and stylish, something that should please many businessmen when, or if, it is eventually released. I don’t particularly like the curve the phone has at the bottom, nor do I see how that can make it more practical, but the general design isn’t too far away from what we currently have with phones like LG’s chocolate phone."

Serial Bus and its impact on low-tech society. It's a pretty interesting concept, with some cool photos of the works. I think I want to add that USB tie to my collection...
