iShoes version 2 already

, Oct 30th 2007 Discuss [0]

So not too long ago I wrote an article about a pair of odd looking skates that were powered by an electric motor and allowed you to be propelled up to about 15mph, now there is already a new version. Same idea, different design. Personally I like the new design better, but there is no way you are safely taking version two off the paved path because those huge wheels from the last model are gone. On top of that, all the goodies, as in the motor, batteries, all that stuff is now tucked away under a metal cover, so they look better. Read The Full Story

Logic3 JiveBox iPod sound system

, Oct 30th 2007 Discuss [0]

Logic3 has launched the JiveBox, an apparently cubed iPod speaker system. If it is a perfect cube, then its 15cm cubed in size, not bad for all its packing. Inside you will find a 90 watt RMS power source, a sub, 2 mids, 2 highs, an iPod dock, and a Digital Signal Processor. The sub is a 5.25-inch Hi-X woofer, the 2 mids are 3-inches a piece, and the pair of tweeters is 1-inch each. Read The Full Story

Samsung i780 being released in Europe in January

, Oct 30th 2007 Discuss [0]

Now is it just me or does this thing look remarkably like the BlackJack? I had to double check, and they are two different devices, but the impending BlackJack II and this device have more than some of their appearance’s in common. This smartphone has 3G HSDPA, GPS, and Wi-Fi, that’s pretty good for a device like this. Oh yeah, you know that one area where the BlackJack models are lacking, the whole lack of a touchscreen thing? Not on this handset, it has a 2.6-inch touchscreen. Read The Full Story

Apple OS X moves 2 million copies over the weekend

, Oct 30th 2007 Discuss [0]

Since when did Apple’s OS start doing MS numbers? Apparently since the 26th when they released Leopard. I reckon that’s what you get when you make a quality OS from the beginning and then just continue to improve upon it. 2 million copies is amazing, I can’t wait till Friday to see what their entire first week sales are.

Unboxing: Palm Series 3 Wireless Bluetooth Headset

, Oct 30th 2007 Discuss [4]

So today I got a gift on my front porch from FedEx, it was the new Palm Series 3 Bluetooth wireless headset. I like the way it looks, and so far the way it feels.

The headset is made to rest inside your ear, but comes with an ear loop for those like myself that are prone to the loss of things held solely in place by our ears. Other than the additional ear loop, there are a total of 3 ear pads that are each a different size so you can get the best fit for your ear.

Whenever we or anybody else reports on developments in Art Lebedev's Optimus Maximus camp, someone invariably pops up shouting "render!"  Well, either the Optimus guys are getting a whole lot better with their Photoshop skills, or they really did show off a working prototype of the OLED-keyed 'board yesterday in their Moscow store.   Read The Full Story

Super Mario Brothers Multi LED Mushroom Pumpkin

, Oct 30th 2007 Discuss [0]

If you're going to have a geek inspired jack-o-lantern then why stick to those pesky candles? Not only does it light up with LED lights it lights up in three separate colors. The video tutorial shows you step by step how to cut out the Mario mushroom and then how to hook up the shiny lights. A small suggestion, don't put it outside till it's completely dark because this is one design that looks really ugly with the lights on. You can't even tell the thing is a mushroom.

JailBreakMe.com one-click JailBreak and Installer install

, Oct 29th 2007 Discuss [4]

If you have been considering Jailbreaking your iPhone or iPod Touch since the release of firmware 1.1.1 things just got a lot easier. With AppSnapp, the program that is launched from JailBreakMe.com, all you need is your handheld Apple device and a WiFi connection. Your device has to have firmware 1.1.1 installed, and can be activated or not, if not, AppSnapp will also go ahead and activate your device for you, there are ways to access Safari and navigate to a given URL without activation, so you’ll have to follow one of those guides, but after that, everything else is taken care of. You go to the url, click “Install AppSnapp” at the bottom and then you wait 5-10 minutes, provided you are using a high speed wifi connection, and then you get a screen lock screen, slide the slider and your Apple device is jailbroken and has installer.app installed, and has been patched from the tiff exploit.
