What's next for Virgin? After nightclubs, record labels, gadgets, cellphone carriers, airlines and space ships, Sir Richard Branson is getting into subs. Fifteen miles from his Necker Island, is the Puerto Rican Trench, deepest spot in the Atlantic. They'll dive! More » -

First Video of a Volcanic Eruption 4,000 Feet Underwater
This year a research expedition sent a remotely operated vehicle 4,000 feet below the surface of the Pacific Ocean and within ten feet of an exploding volcano. Today the first video footage from that expedition was released. Ka-boom. More » -

The Internet: Now Available at the Bottom of the Ocean
No, Google is not trying to corner the market on undersea searches. Actually, the "Neptune" internet network is designed to make it easier for researchers to communicate with robots and submarines. More » -

The Seaglider, Hunting
This microphoned submarine glider has been collecting ocean sounds for a few weeks. When it is plucked from the sea in a few more, researchers will use software to parse its audiofiles for rare beaked whale songs. [Wired] More » -

Olympus Stylus Tough 8000 Waterproof Camera Review: The One That Says Bad MotherF*cker On It
If there's a tougher waterproof camera, I haven't seen it before. That's not to say it's perfect, but it's the point and shoot I'd take to cover an Aquaman vs Red October brawl. More » -

Panasonic SDR-SW21 Waterproof Camera Non-Review: NO NO NO NO NO!
This camera doesn't deserve a review; it deserves a warning. It is one of the most expensive rugged cams, but takes only 640x480 SD video and 0.3MP stills as bad as the worst camphones. Miserable! More » -

Panasonic Lumix DMC-TS1 Waterproof Camera Review: My Favorite So Far, Oddly
It's not the most rugged, waterproof, or compact of its kind. And its photos aren't the best. But for some reason I really like this camera. Maybe I'm wrong. More » -

DXG-U579VS $150 Waterproof HD Camcorder Review
This is one of the worst waterproof cameras I have ever used, even if its the cheapest and does 720p video. Maybe you can recommend it to a merman you hate? More » -

Canon Powershot D10 Waterproof Camera Review: Dive, Dive, DIVE!
The Canon Powershot D10 will never, ever fit into a pocket unless you are MC Hammer, circa 1990. That's because it houses a telescoping lens in a bulging case, making it look like a sub. Still, shots are pretty. More » -

Fujifilm Finepix Z33WP Waterproof Cam Review: Small and Smooth Like a Sea Stone
The Fujifilm Z33WP has a small, beautiful case and for some reason, out of many cameras, I choose to bring it on several recent trips. Size does matter when trying to travel light, I suppose. More » -

Documentary Deploys Spy Tech to Trump Japanese Dolphin Killers
If you haven't at least seen the trailer for The Cove, a documentary about Japan's dolphin slaughter ring, it's worth a watch if only to witness some of the most poised documentary footage since Winged Migration. How'd they shoot it? More » -

Pentax W80 Camera Review: Waterproof and Now Slightly Ruggedized
The Pentax W80 is their latest in a long line of waterproof cams that take decent shots, but have always been my favorite because of their compact size. This one is a bit bigger, but gains ruggedization and depth. More » -

Infintas Yacht Spoils You For Life On Land With Three Levels of Luxury
Pool deck, helicopter pad...elevator? I guess that when you own a 300 foot monument to phallic imagery like this, taking stairs just won't do the trick. (Nor would walking around the pool apparently, since there's a bridge over it.) More » -

The Deep Flight Super Falcon Sub is Actually a Private Airplane for the Sea
I'd never been envious of Tom Perkins' giant sailboat, the Maltese Falcon, until it received a deployable submarine in its belly. The sub, called the Deep Flight Super Falcon, is a 21-foot electric vehicle, bringing aerodynamic principles to the sea. More » -

What if Apple and Chumby Designed a Surfboard?
Thomas Meyerhoffer used to work at Apple and helped design Chumby. These days, he's reinventing the classic shape of the surfboard. Looks more like a snowboard, with that midcut radius. Or a spaceship. I like it. More » -
