This nifty little gadget was created in an effort to make it possible to see who was online from across the room, or just in passing. So he took some pictures of the few people who he truly cared when they were online, put some LED lights behind them, and then did a lot of more technical stuff to make the lights light up when that person was online.
Alright it’s official, Colorware has to stop releasing new things that they can customize. The last time they announced that they were releasing the DS Lite I spent an hour on their site drooling over the possibilities. This time, I kept it at around a half an hour, so maybe I’m getting better at this.
According to Japanese site AV Watch Konami is going to be releasing a few versions of Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots. There will be a version that is just the game itself if that’s all you care about, and then there will be a couple other surprises.
From a single manager they have seen 20% of their notebook returned on average, and 30% of their SSD equipped notebooks. Not all of those are for failures, but about 20% of those SSD equipped notebooks are being returned due solely to SSD drive failures.
You can get this player in 1, 2, or 4 gigabyte configurations. It’s extremely small too packing in an LCD screen, the memory, the battery, and the controller boards into a small 5.6mm thick package.
It weighs a mere 20 grams and although the screen is small, its good enough to watch videos on, you just might have to wear it as an eye patch. This player also packs in an FM tuner, voice recorder and text viewer, its almost worth the asking price just for those functionalities, let alone the video and music playing capabilities.
LucidTouch is an interesting concept that just seems like it would have a pass or fail type of learning spike.

It seems that every time a major lawsuit is launched against a plethora of companies, Buffalo is the first to get hit. Like the one about the WiFi patents from Australia like a year or two ago, Buffalo got hit first and hardest, now SanDisk is suing everyone and their brother in a new flash drive lawsuit and Buffalo gets hit first.
Not only does it act as a gun for playing Wii games that could use that type of functionality, such as Link’s Crossbow Training, the game that comes with Nintendo’s Wii Zapper. It also offers up a laser sight and a ping pong ball-tipped arrow that actually fires.
So you’ve made it into the boss’ office and you are transferring the files onto your cheap knockoff flash drive and had you been mere seconds faster you wouldn’t be sitting in a jail cell, well you should have bought a flash drive from Corsair. Their new Flash Voyager GT offers up transfer speeds four times faster than that of a regular USB 2.0 drive.
Check out this wiimote hack where someone took the guts of a wiimote and stuffed it inside an aluminum cut out of a real gun for a more realistic feel. It’s made from aluminum, not steel, as steel would be really heavy and prohibitive, but it’s equally cool
