Slashdot had some good gadget news this weekend (I know! They must have changed the mix in their daily free Thinkgeek Crazy Caffeine Slurry). The first was a tongue-in-cheek homemade mod which stuffs the cooling power of case fans into a gel mousepad, dubbed the ‘BreezePad.’ Then there was the first part (of three) in the ‘Beyond Megapixels’ series of articles that aim to clear up some of the myths surrounding the standards by which digital cameras are judged, including why that 8-megapixel prosumer camera you just bought might not be better than the 6-megapixel digital SLR that cost a little bit more. Last, with a wheezing nerd hurrah, the launch of the HP 33s Graphing Calculator (pictured right), with an odd v-shaped keypad. Better watch out: Slashdot might start posting news in the week it happens!
