If you’re partial to surreptitiously-acquired videos of amorous couples, bu have ever been frustrated at the poor quality of the dodgy CCTV footage currently available, Arecont Vision have some good news [pdf link] for you. The video camera company have unveiled a new set of IP cameras that feature the company’s own proprietary implementation of H.264 compression. [...]
For some reason, this Micro Orb spy camera makes me think of Columbo-star Peter Falk. Perhaps if the TV detective had been fitted with a 1.5-inch sphere capturing 30fps MPEG-4 video (with sound), gathering evidence might’ve been even easier. On sale in mid-May, the video camera has a three hour rechargeable battery and can record [...]
Microsoft has revealed that, since June 2007, multiple law enforcement agencies have been using a forensic device it has developed that can bypass security on a Windows-powered machine and extract data for use in criminal investigations. Called COFEE - Computer Online Forensic Evidence Extractor - the gadget is apparently a USB thumb-drive onto which Microsoft have [...]

For those that feel the need to make even the smallest tasks into a bit of a challenge this door chain is just the thing for you. For the rest of us, at least we can stare at it in utter disbelief that such a thing could ever exist.
One of these would be perfect [...]
I thought for sure this guide was going to involve DIP switches when I read that this computer only has a 433MHz processor. But it didn’t, its all software, or more precisely, firmware based.
The requirements are quite low too, you must have an OLPC, you must have a developer key or have disabled security prior [...]
It has 23 security updates, 550 hotfixes, and is packed into a 434.5MB package or 726.5MB for the 64-bit version. That’s a fat service pack if I do say so myself.
For $99 you can pick yourself up one of the worlds smallest mobile base stations for a wireless network. The best part is it now uses WiFi n to move all that data around wirelessly.
That does two things; first, it makes the unit compatible with all major 802.11 networks, and second it boosts the speed [...]
