There are some people out there who, when they get a new toy, hurriedly rip away the packaging in a mad dash to get to the prize inside.  For others, there’s the joy of the unboxing - peeling away the layers of user guides, accessories, crappy case and multiple strata of molded cardboard, enjoying the [...]

Leaving presents for departing colleagues are tricky things to judge.  First there’s the harrowing task of going round the office looking for donations - you’re bound to resurrect a few “he stole my favourite mug!”-style gripes - and then you have to decide what to buy.  If you’re a woman, it’s a pretty good chance [...]

Hang on, do Apple actually grow the iPod Shuffle 2 in a tiny hydroponic case?  No, of course they don’t; this is just the packaging you doofus.  Palm Is Life decided to document the unboxing of their Shuffle, and ended up with some lovely photos.  It’s quite difficult to conceptualise the sheer tininess of the [...]

Our sister site, SlashPhone, have scored some hands-on time with Palm’s latest Treo, the 680, and put up both an unboxing video and a video run-through of the menu system.  The former is shown below; the latter is over on their site.  What do they think?  Well, it’s still chunkier than rivals like the Dash, [...]

It’s come in for some stick over the course of its development, and I have to say I’d partially dismissed it as a gimmick that wouldn’t take off (not least for the toy-town design that made initial prototypes look effete), but the OLPC (One Laptop Per Child) project has finally made it to semi-production stage [...]

Y’know, after this madcap week of tech releases and gadget news, we’ll all be hoping for a quiet few days come Monday.  Or maybe it’ll just feel quiet, what with half the bloggers off with their PS3s, Zunes or Wiis, trying to find a unique angle to cut through the flood of posts and grab [...]

So it’s Monday, and we’re kicking off with a follow-up to a HD-DV camcorder you might’ve seen the output of if you checked out SlashGear’s Zune menu walkthrough last week.  I’m talking about the Canon iVIS HV10, the $1,300 consumer HDV camcorder that’s capable of delivering 1920×1080i resolution and instant autofocus.  Since Canon were so [...]
