Knight Rider KITT GPS Now Available

Just a few days after the new series premiere, RadioShack has announced that it scored exclusive rights to sell Mio's Knight Rider GPS in the US. I already have a GPS unit, but the geek in me wants to buy this thing just to hear William Daniels tell me where the nearest McDonald's is. The KITT GPS is available now for $270.

New Vex Robotics Kits: Smaller, Cheaper, Chattier, Wireless-er

Remember Vex, the RadioShack robot platform that was going to change the face of home android-army construction? After a spell out of the limelight, it's back with some cool upgrades: the RCR Mini platform is half the size (and at under $100, a third the cost) of standard Vex, and works alone or with the larger set if you want to mix 'n' match. The Wi-Fi Control System lets you wirelessly control hundreds of robots via any computer—Linux machines included—and allows the robots themselves to communicate with one another, so be careful how well you arm them! Pricing and availability details will come out later, but the first hands-on opp will be at Toy Fair, so stay tuned. [Vex Labs]

RadioShack Signs With Cingular, Says "I Can't Hear You Now" To Verizon

The retail favorite of amateur bomb-makers and DIY electronics enthusiasts everywhere has just widened its cellphone market share considerably. RadioShack has signed a long ten-year agreement with Cingular, and extended its Sprint agreement for another 11 years. This effectively puts RadioShack in both the CDMA and GSM market, and if the Sprint/Nextel merger goes through, they'll have a hand in the iDEN market too. More »
