Exclusive Microsoft Zune Details

After lots of quality time groping the Zune like blind man on his wedding night, our people give us the lowdown on the player’s functionality. Get the scoop after the jump! First off, that scroll wheel you see? That’s not a wheel. It’s just four buttons arranged in a wheel formation. That kinda sucks if…

If you’re a stylish sort of girl who wouldn’t be seen dead with a clunky cellphone, this might appeal: the Elle Glamphone is a camera phone for the more elegant and refined among us that’s designed to be worn around the neck like a piece of jewelry. It’s a pretty basic phone though, with just…

PSP2 Wish List

Some gadget freaks are never happy. Right after Sony launches the Mylo, David Carnoy at CNet is demanding more with a list of requests for the Sony PSP2, ranging from a built-in hard drive to a second flash media slot for SD and xD cards. While the first is possible, given Sony’s devotion to the…

Rollei dt6 Tribute: Small, Not Much Else

Achtung! Germany-based Rollei’s about to release the dt6 Tribute, a consumer-grade 6.36-megapixel digital camera that’s “compact and stylish.” (You know a camera has nothing to offer when the best thing that it’s got going for it is that it’s “compact and stylish.”) Other stats include a 4.8x optical zoom that complements its 8x digital zoom,…

Convert Vinyl to CD With the Teac GF-350

Old farts like me remember vinyl: deliciously shiny slabs of plastic filled with the latest pop tunes. And old farts like me still have vinyl lying around that we can’t listen to because our record players haven’t been the same since we tried to use them to drive a disco ball. Fortunately, there’s the Teac…

Low End Theory

Lessons of the Pawn Shop By Brendan I. Koerner Believe it or not, I can pinpoint the exact day I realized that the VCR Era was over: August 27, 2000. I was on a magazine assignment up in Waterbury, Connecticut, interviewing the patrons of a dingy pawn shop about why they were swapping their precious…

It has a universal iPod dock, video out and pumps out the tunes via two 2.5-inch Max-X high-excursion drivers and a bass port. The dock also includes an auxiliary input…

TomTom One: Giz’s First Grope, With Pictures

I’m really good at getting lost, and I’m always broke. Which is why I really appreciate budget-y GPS systems like the TomTom ONE (their caps, not my Tourettes). For the 30 minutes I had to play with it, I thought it was a pretty decent set. Some details, and every picture we could find, after…

First Ever Adult HD-DVD Arrives in Japan

Format war over, HD-DVD wins by way of pornography appearing on it first. Over in Japan GLAY’z, known for its “Brand-new-century-visual-super-exprotion-entertainment,” just released the world’s first adult film on HD-DVD entitled (if machine translation isn’t too unreliable) “Slave Room.” Public fornication aside, it’s pretty significant since everybody and their mom knows that whatever format the…

PS3 Developers Kit Video

I’m taking my hate towards the PS3 and setting it aside to show you folks this video of the PS3 developers kit in action. Here it is, in all of its glory, along with a snapshot of the menu system that is really familiar to another Sony product that has flopped. Foreshadowing for the PS3,…

FlowerPod: Flowery Audio Dock

The case studies have shown that traditional audio docks just aren’t dainty enough for the average female. Case studies don’t lie, folks. Ladies like flowers, so some geniuses have decided to slap a speaker in a fake flower, strap on a 3.5mm standard audio cable and sell it at Target. It is available in pink,…

Apple Shocks the World, Denies Wi-Fi iPod

This is pretty crazy, given that Apple’s asshole puckers up tighter than a snare drum regarding statements about future products. The DigiTimes is reporting that Apple Taiwan has dismissed the claims of the future iPod having Wi-Fi capabilities—kind of. They originally said that Apple is sending staff to the major markets in Asia to teach…

Microwave Drilling .. Huh?

Yes, this is the truth. Researchers at Tel Aviv University have found a way to use a technology that I am very fond of to make concrete drilling a bit easier and less messy. Microwaves are used to heat the concrete or other material to well over 2,000 degrees celcius making it quite a bit…

PSPhone: Mod Turns PSP into Cellphone

An Israeli hacker (in the traditional, romantic sense of the word) has created a chip that allegedly turns Sony’s PSP into a an almost fully functional cellphone, “almost” because the PSP is yet unable to actually make calls. The mod, which the person claims will cost around $60, lets the PSP receive CDMA and GSM…
