Sex Toy Testers

Following in the footsteps of epinions.com, IMDB, and other user-driven sites, some entrepreneurial folks over in the UK have started a website called “Sex Toy Testers,” a name which conjures images of a team of stalwart sex toy reviewers, like a horny Ghostbusters. The website’s interface leaves a lot to be desired, but it does…

Windows XP Service Pack 2 Slows Down Laptops

MobilePCMag took 10 laptops and upgraded them to Windows XP Service Pack 2 (SP2), then ran their standard suite of benchmarks. Although a couple of machines saw small performance increases, on the whole the laptops were 9-percent slower than when they were running SP1. That’s a fairly marked performance decrease, made a little worse by…

Canon EOS-1Ds Mark II Stats

Information about Canon’s new DSLR is creeping out and it looks like a doozy, with a 16 to 17-megapixel sensor and a built-in SD and CF card slots, among other things. So yeah, that’s huge – like 4992 x 3328 pixels in RAW mode huge. This site has a scan of the EOS-1DSMK2’s first brochure…

Oktoberfest Beer Foamer

I think we can all agree that if you’ve lost the foam on your mug of beer, you’re either drinking something with a lousy head or you’ve waited far to long to drink it. Either of those problems can be fixed without gadgetitanica ebriositas, of course, but if you want to throw a little technology…

Metasonix TX-1 Agonizer: Unacceptable Edition

My favorite music FX company, Metasonix, has tickled my inbox with information about a new edition of their MetaSonix TX-1 Agonizer now available (called the “Unacceptable Edition”) with a brand new “SUCKBASS” filter switch that completely removes any pleasing bass noise from the otherwise “scrotal curdling” sound. Metasonix was forced to create a new version…

Motorola MPx and MPx220 Release Date Rumors: Take Two

Phonemag has word that the Motorola MPx should be available in December with a 32MB mode, with a 64MB model to follow in the spring. In addition, the MPx220 is now reported to be released by Cingular on October 18th – not the September 27th release we had been hearing before. Still rumor, of course,…

Branding is Hard (Rock Hard. And Glistening)

I just… I don’t know what to say. There are a thousand reasons not to use the word ‘suck’ in your product name – especially if your product is, you know, a clock. “Suck bubble” isn’t really any better, guys. That’s almost worse than the Bluetake Headsets. (Thanks, Allen!) Read – Product Page [EC21]

Bushnell Instant Replay Binoculars Reviewed

Someday someone is going to get one of these digital camera/binocular hybrids right and have a hit product on their hands, but manufacturers’ continual insistance to make the camera lens seperate from the binoculars really futzes up what could otherwise be a fantastic product. Take these Bushnell Instant Replay binocs, for instance, as reviewed by…

Sony to Launch Smaller PStwo

Reuters is reporting that Sony intends to unveil a new smaller version of the Playstation two next week, called the PStwo. Like the successful shrinky-dink PSone version of the first Playstation, the PStwo will maintain all the same functionality (although who knows about the inputs and outputs) and will play all the same games as…

Remote Controller Listener Robot

I love it when companies make gadgets so obviously useful for corporate or personal espionage, then cover their asses by calling it a ‘toy.’ Sure, this Listener Robot may look like a toy, with its little UN-vehicle wheels and cute antenna flag, but don’t tell me you can’t think of a thousand nefarious uses for…

TOMY Pet Cam, PetsMobility Cellphone

Keeping with the tradition of bizarre pet-oriented gadgets originating in Japan, Tomy has announced the “Wonderful Shot,” a digital camera that is strapped around your dog’s neck. The 0.3MP camera can not only be activated by remote controller, timer options provide delays of up to 60 minutes. I could personally think of some pretty perverted…

Sony Shows Off Unannounced, Concept Products

Sony Marketing is holding the “Sony Dealer Convention” until the 17th, and I felt as though there were a couple items of note. So begin noting. First of all, there were a couple “unannounced” products. You can see at the right a picture of the Gran-Turismo-style-glossjob-having-wireless optical mouse, the “SMU-WSM2.” A wired model of this…

Two New UK-Only GBA SPs
