+ Palm Pixi review By admin 12 November 2009 at 8:00 am and have No Comments

It’s hard to believe that Palm is already pushing its second device, the Pixi, out the door. It seems like just a few weeks ago that we were eagerly awaiting the release of the Pre , a phone that was considered to be the last gasp for the badly ailing company, and now it’s poised to add an entirely new handset to the mix. The Pixi — a sleek, tiny, webOS based device — seems clearly aimed at the only market Palm has recently enjoyed unfettered success with: the Centro demographic

+ Esquire’s Augmented Reality issue goes on sale, and we have video to prove it By admin 10 November 2009 at 12:19 pm and have No Comments

The Augmented Reality issue of Esquire has hit the newsstands, and our fears have come true: when this magazine comes in contact with your webcam, Robert Downey Jr. is unleashed! Aside from dangerous levels of the Academy Award-winning actor, however, the video (after the break) really highlights how silly the whole affair is: While AR has been implemented to great effect for a number of different applications, delivering video content that could just as easily been delivered without waving a magazine in front of your computer definitely crosses the line into gimmick territory

+ Leica X1 photo gallery proves that big shots do come in little packages By admin 08 November 2009 at 10:48 am and have No Comments

For those who’ve never really understood the mystique and allure surrounding Leica ’s retro-styled cameras (and their stratospheric price tags), here’s a gallery of shots that might just lend a little insight into the fixation. The outfit’s X1 was announced back in September, though initial shipments aren’t expected to begin across the pond until early 2010. That said, the shutterbugs over at dpreview managed to procure one ahead of time, and they’ve hosted up a cornucopia of sample images from the currently unpriced compact.

Tell us, readers — haven’t you dreamt deeply about shoving your hand into a toasty, moist hamburger at work in order to warm your digits without cranking the thermostat and irritating the Antarctica-born top brass? And tell us, haven’t you always wanted a USB hub that doubled as an airplane toy

+ Machined Gear Clock makes watching the time pass a true joy (video) By admin 28 October 2009 at 3:58 am and have No Comments

We’ve seen no shortage of homegrown clocks in our day , and while most are cute for their time, few are worthy of being lauded in this manner. Alan Parekh’s Gear Clock is a delightful mishmash of machined gears, thrown together in a fashion that resulted in an actual time-telling gizmo. Hop on past the break to watch this thing spin, but be sure to hold the mute button for the lead-in.

+ Litl Easel ‘web computer’ is cute as a baby-blue button By admin 28 October 2009 at 3:14 am and have No Comments

Sorry Litl, but the FCC just spoiled your surprise party. Described as “a web computer” running Litl OS (sorry Microsoft), the 3.38-pound Litl Easel (built by FIC ) packs a 1.86GHz Atom Z540 processor beneath that 12.1-inch 1280×800 pixel display, a meager 2GB of storage, 1GB of DDR2 memory, 802.11b/g WiFi, and webcam all powered by a 2600MAh battery. There’s also HDMI, a single USB jack, and an IR receiver for a Litl remote.
