Ah, can you feel it? We’re just days away from the launch of the Zune HD, and Microsoft took it upon themselves to go ahead and let us know that some maintenance is scheduled for the 14th. The newsletter was sent out to Zune Pass subscribers, letting them know that access to the Zune suite of applications will be down most of the day starting the 14th.

It’s only been a day since we reported that Nokia was planning on keeping carrier branding as far away from the N900 and Maemo-enabled devices as possible, but it looks like all of that just changed. In a big way. And now, it seems that Nokia is taking a stand in the other direction, leaving us to wonder what the deal really is. Was our excitement misplaced? Or is Nokia just trying to calm the waters, before any real announcements regarding the upcoming N900’s release on carriers is released?

With the announcement of Guitar Hero 5, nothing was bigger than the fact that Kurt Cobain, the former lead singer of Nirvana, had been licensed as a likeness within the game. We haven’t really gone into depth on this at all, even as the story broke repeatedly over the last week or so. It seemed to be just a flare up from Courtney Love, Cobain’s widow, as she defended herself against the myriad of complaints she had received from fans of Cobain and the band, most of which had been focused on her Twitter feed.

While Facebook isn’t nearly as overbearing as MySpace is on its best day, for users out there trying to connect with everyone they know on a slow Internet connection, Facebook could be pretty daunting. There’s a lot of pictures that people like to share, after all, and those applications can be ridiculous at times. But Facebook has the answer for you: Lite. And just as the name has always alluded, we’ve got a fresh new look on an old friend.

Ever been at the beach and realized that your cell phone was about to die? Ever been at the beach, noticed that your cell phone was about to die, and cared? Well, if you have, or perhaps a bit more realistically you needed to charge your digital camera while trapsing around, then it looks like a team of developers has just the thing for you. They’re called Solar Trees, and you guessed it, they’re solar powered.

CEDIA is still going strong, and with announcements like this one from JVC, we can see why. The DLA-RS4000 is a projector with some hefty specifications, which includes the heavy lifting necessary to move this thing around. Especially compared to JVC’s earlier offerings, this new projector is a beast. And believe us when we say, the price tag reflects that statement.

Sorry to say, but it looks like Microsoft is following their trending behavior, and not planning on releasing the Zune HD any time soon in the European market. There are a lot of assumptions regarding the reasoning behind this, especially after the initial Zune models never roamed far from home, but the truth is, it probably boils down to the Software and the content that propels the Zune.

Who’s tired of official announcements? Well, we’re not, but let’s shake some things up with a bit of a leak, what do you say? Well, not so much a leak, as a rumor. A rumor from a mole. So you know just about how far you can take this: as long as your imagination goes. Either way, if the competition has anything to say about it, then a 250GB PS3 Slim doesn’t seem all that impossible.

We love big TVs as much as the next person, but there just has to be a point where big is too big. Is 65-inches too big? That’s probably a personal taste thing, and while we’re sure that there’s plenty of people out there that would love to have this new set introduced today at CEDIA by Samsung, we can guess there’s one huge obstacle you’ll have to climb before you can have one of these bad boys.

External hard drives are almost a necessity at this point, even as the hard drives in our laptops and our desktops get bigger. Securing those hard drives is a big deal, and it’s good to see companies like WD taking a big step forward in keeping their products secure with features like encryption, and WD’s SmartWare software. And today marks the introduction of WD’s new, safer, sleeker, and smaller My Passport lines for PC and Mac.
