    Wing Lounge Chair - The Only NASA Certified Chair

    This chair is notable in two ways. One, it's the largest single piece of bendwood used to make a chair, and two, it's the only chair tested by NASA and certified by The Space Foundation. More »

    Nyko Wired Wii Accessories to Run Half Price

    Nyko has just announced wired versions of their Wing (classic controller) and Kama (nunchuk). And while the previously announced wireless versions may be more technically impressive, these models are recession-friendly.

    Wing Man Baby Seat: Carbon Fiber Gets Knocked Up

    For anyone with a child, that bond you feel with your offspring is the most powerful in nature. And your protective instincts demand the absolute best in child safety, like this $4,000 Wing Man baby seat prototype. It's constructed of strong, lightweight carbon fiber—the same material used in performance cars and airplanes across the world—that should keep your little bundle of joy stylish and nearly invincible. But just so your know, dear parent, all of us without a child think that you're freaking nuts for reading this many words on a $4,000 baby seat. [carbonfibergear via Jalopnik]

    Spite Nintendo With the Nyko Wing, Available Now

    The Nyko Wing is a high quality alternative to the Wii's barebones Classic Controller, syncing with the Wiimote wirelessly, playing 30 hours on a pair of AAAs and offering a mini USB option for charging. We liked the Wing during our own testing, and now it's available to the public for $30. That price is higher than Nintendo's offerings, but in this case, it's probably fair. [Nyko]

    Hands on with Nyko Wing: Wii's Classic Controller Goes Wireless

    Earlier today, Nyko unveiled the Wing, a wireless controller for the Wii, based on Nintendo's own classic controller. Aside from the whole no wires thing, they've put their own spin on the accessory by tweaking the ergonomics, incorporating a battery charger, and adjusting the button spacing. After spending a bit of time playing some Megaman 9 and Street Fighter II with the Wing, I think it's a suitable classic controller alternative when it hits stores in mid-October. More »

    Super Cute iriver Wing UMPC Is Also Super Tiny

    Scale is everything: We knew iriver's Wing touchscreen UMPC was seriously compact, but didn't know just how small it was. It's still a complete prototype—you're looking at dumb plastic, and the top half even sorta fell off the hinge—but we convinced them to pull it out of the glass case so we could do a quick sizemodo. We just hope it actually comes out at this size.

    iriver Wing UMPC Has Touch Screen, Flash Storage and Super Cuteness

    The Goods: The iriver Wing is a cute little UMPC with a touchscreen and 4GB of flash storage. It's got Wi-Fi, obviously, and supposedly is instant-on. No word on the battery life. The Bads: It runs Windows CE Pro for the OS, and the keyboard looks like it could be difficult to pound on.

    328-Foot RAM Wing 100 Yacht Zips Along at 100 Knots

    Is this RAM Wing 100 yacht by Levi Designs a catamaran or a monohull? It's both, starting out in front is a catamaran and ending up as a monohull in the stern. The most remarkable aspect of this design concept is its tremendous speed, 100 knots with a range of 2000 nautical miles. That's not bad for a giant 328-foot boat that'll have a submarine, twin helipads, a motorcycle/car garage and swimming pool on board. It gets its speed from halfway flying, skimming the waves because of the lift from its catamaran bow. Gorgeous, but will it ever be built? [Luxury Catamaran, via Born Rich] More »

    Riding Shotgun on an Apache Gunship

    As if it wasn't cool enough already to be an Apache pilot, these pictures arrive to make us even more envious. If an Apache is nearby a rescue situation then they will sometimes try to lend a hand—even though they only have two seats. The lucky/unlucky copilot has to step outside and sit on the wing stub, to make room for the evacuee. These guys at Camp Bondsteel in Kosovo are practicing the move. I imagine that "noisy, uncomfortable and fun" doesn't even begin to describe this. [Strategy Page]

    T-Mobile customers have waited a long time for an upgrade to the trusty MDA, its only Windows Mobile Pocket PC phone—and only Windows Mobile phone with a keyboard other than the Dash—but all that patience is about to pay off. More »
