    Bug Labs Store Launches Monday, Minus Wi-Fi

    Bug Labs, the open source gadget hardware kit, will go on sale on Monday at around noon EST. But without Wi-Fi. Getting reliable open source Wi-Fi drivers in the base unit has been problematic, so they're launching without it in a special HiroP unit, named after the main character in Neal Stephenson's Snow Crash. There is some good news, though. More »

    The Bug Labs Concept Interview

    As cool as we find the whole modular open-source electronics concept that Bug Labs has conjured up, we share some of the confusion and curiosity that you do about how this baby's gonna fly. We sat down with CEO Peter Semmelhack and, in addition to giving us the first look at the powered-on Bug itself, he answered some of our most burning questions: More »

    First Video: Bug Labs Powers Up Its Modular Open-Source Device

    Today, for the first time, Bug Labs CEO Peter Semmelhack is showing off a genuine powered-up prototype of the modular, open-source consumer-electronics device. Want a camera? Snap it on. Want GPS? Go for it. Here you see him attaching touchscreen LCDs, motion sensor, camera, 3G wireless LAN and GPS. It's powered up, and the PDA app works (as you can see in the gallery), but Bug isn't showing us full functionality yet, so for that you will have to stay tuned.

    Bug Labs Interview: Why Open Source Hardware When Open Software Is So Powerful By Itself?

    I sat down with Peter Semmelhack, CEO of Bug labs, to talk about his open source hardware gadgets. My first question for him was why open source hardware when open source software is so powerful and easier to implement? His answer explained how Bug Labs should anticipate the innovative hacks (like Lego Mindstorm), but also how it compares to out of the box gadgets built on closed systems. (There's room for both in the world.) More interview clips to come.

    Bug Labs: First Look at the Hardware Designs

    The first renderings of the final hardware cases for Bug Labs open source gadget platform are up on their website. As you can see it's really coming along since the last time we got a look at it. It's looking halfway decent now, although a little clunkier than I would have expected. It will be interesting to see how the design evolves as the product release approaches. [Bug Labs]

    Bug Labs Plans Open Source DIY Gadget Hardware

    Ryan at Engadget has a great post about Bug Labs, a company planning to release DIY gadget hardware in the form of modular screens, QWERTY, GPS, Wifi/Bluetooth radios (sorry, no cellular radios). This could be the beginning of a gadget world that could be as open, and sometimes messy, as the PC one. [Bug Labs via Engadget]
