Monster Cable Sues Monster Mini Golf For, You Guessed It, Name Confusion
If people ever decide to wake up and stop paying the huge markups for Monster Cable for technology that's not even here yet, Monster can go into another business: selling balls. They've sure got an excess, seeing as they're following up a suit against another cable company because the connectors are too similar with a suit against a MINI GOLF COMPANY because their NAMES ARE TOO SIMILAR.

New Raytheon XOS Exoskeleton Video Shows How Easy Iron Man's Exercise Routine Is
The Sarcos-Raytheon joint effort Exoskeleton has been around for a while, but the companies are trotting it out in honor of the Iron Man movie. This XOS seems really agile and powerful at the same time, but those hooks-for-hands really might be dangerous if you forget you have them on. But as you can see when their own roboman lifts those 200 pounds with barely any effort, it's really really useful. If they can kinda enclose up this suit so the whole thing is bulletproof, flameproof and Iron Monger-proof, we'd be first in line. [Raytheon]

Here's a trailer I haven't seen before of Tony Stark getting ready for a night on the town. No Tux, but the Mark III suit. What's impressive about the movie's suit design is that they've not only detailed the red and gold of the outer shell, but the entire underlayer of the chassis and fastening system. That chest repulsor still looks like a simple halogen bulb, though.

Iron Man's First Flight Shows Jet-Like HUD, Every Boy's Fantasy
Just like every man under the age of 30 still believes that with enough discipline, training, and working out there's the possibility that he could in fact become the Batman, every man thinks that with the right suit he could fly up and shoot rockets at tanks. More »

Classiest Japanese Business Suit Can Be Washed In the Shower
In Japan a suit capable of being washed in the shower without ironing afterwards, has just gone on sale. Shower Clean only needs to be turned inside out and sprayed down with hot water to be sanitized, costs less than $500 and is targeted at college grads going through their first rounds of job hunting. I'd consider it just as useful for the businessmen who fall asleep in train stations after working and drinking a little too much, who gotta clean the puke off their pants before clocking back in. Either way, note that we are getting SO CLOSE to star trek uniform technology. [IHT]

There's nothing more Gizmodo-y than a rich dude building a badass suit for himself to fight crime and kick dudes in the face. This is why we love Batman and to a slightly lesser extent, Iron Man. Here's the first shot of Robert Downey Jr. flashing his "talk to the hand" move in the upcoming Iron Man movie, which will be hyped at San Diego's comic con later this month. While we've finally admitted that our soft, pudgy exterior forbids us from being a possible Batman, having some guy make a crazy flying suit for us is still not out of the question.

Suit Up Your Laptop
One thing that Apple has bashed into our heads, what with all of the Mac vs. PC commercials, is that Macs aren't very accepted in the stodgy corporate world. More »

Death of Innovation: Hop-on Gets Patent for MP3 Phones, Plans to Sue Everyone
You may not be familiar with Hop-on, a company based in both Irvine, CA, and China, but you're going to hear a lot about them soon. Why? Because they've just been granted a patent for an "MP3 phone with speakers on the side, in addition to front and side buttons to activate its camera/video features." Doesn't that describe just about every phone that plays MP3s? Yes. Yes it does. More »
