Resistance Isn't Futile: Explosive Edible Flour, Cigarette Guns and Other WWII OSS Tricks
To kick off our CIA gadget series, I'm starting with something from the beginning, well, before the beginning: covert weaponry sent to resistance fighters behind enemy lines during WWII. They thought of all kinds of disruptive technologies, including exploding edible flour, cigarette-shaped single-use guns and other discrete but explodey gadgets. More »

The first game for Microsoft's Surface table has been demonstrated in an exclusive peek by SarcasticGamer.com, and all I can say is, it combines the spine-tingling excitement of a mobile-phone puzzle game with the spine-achiness that comes from hunching over the screen to play. More »

Vudu Adds Fox TV Shows to its VOD Lineup, Kicks off HD Downloading
Starting today in beta, Vudu owners can pay $1.99 a piece for episodes of 24, Family Guy, Firefly and other Fox-produced shows in standard-def video. Today also marks the availability of the Bourne Ultimatum for purchase in high-def. Though the $399 Vudu's signature attribute is immediate viewing of movies, we're told HD downloads won't be ready pronto, but will take a buffering period that could be long if your network isn't hot. In other words, if you do plan to buy it—for $25—buy it early. [Crave and Vudu]
streaming music
Stream Music from iPhone/iTouch to Any iTunes Computer
FireFly Media Server, a third-party app for the iPhone/iTouch, allows you to directly stream music from your handheld to any iTunes computer. In fact, since it acts like a shared library on the network, you can actually stream music to two different computers at once without any sort of problems. It's of limited use in a home environment unless you have a fancy music rig set up, but it's definitely cool when you can hold an impromptu robot dance party at Lifehacker's office with your own music.

cellphones
The Firefly flyPhone (OMG, IT RHYMES WITH iPHONE!) is a phone geared towards children with a fuller feature set than the original Firefly Phone. The new model has an actual keypad, a camera, memory expansion via MicroSD, and music/video playback. But this phone doesn't exactly strike us as kid-friendly. Not only will parents have to get their children glasses because they strained their eyes looking at the micro screen, but they'll have to save their young ones from choking on the MicroSD card. Pricing and release info not available. [Phone Scoop]

Firefly Lamp
For those of you born in a swamp, this Firefly Lamp will give you the "at home" feeling you can only get when you're knee-deep in marsh water. Each lamp gives you five fireflies, which may or may not be the only thing giving off light in this bulb—it's hard to tell from the picture. More ».jpg)
