Stephen gets the ball rolling with these ladies from some company that makes some kind of product. That product, whatever it is, must be truly be superior if it can mate with ladies such as these! And the ownership of said product will imbue the purchaser with those same sexual qualities!

The idea of HD Radio has been around for a while, but with satellite taking center stage, we haven’t heard much about it. iBiquity is trying to put things into perspective for us with a reference design that consists of an universal HD Radio tuner box, separate protocol converter and an adapter cable, and would…
There’s some company at CES that sells stuff and they had these loverly ladies flogging their junk. Luckily, kind reader Kris was able to take a snap of these ladies afore a horde of khaki-wearing IT consultants mobbed them and nearly made off with the blonde one. This brings up an interesting point: since Team…
We love our CRAAAAW keyboards and Part Trois of the CRAAAAAW saga is no exception. This keyboard is CRAAAAAAAAW-tastic. https://gizmodo.com/wolf-claw-type-ii-keyboard-106352 This keyboard, called, officially, the Wolf Claw (type 3) Devour, will be available in February and is round. That’s all the information we have right now, but I leave you with an exercise for today:…
Yeah, so Samsung has the biggest LCD ever. Woop woop. I actually like their smaller side at this year’s CES. Especially the SC-MS25 and the SC-MS20 6-in-1 digital still cameras. Both of these babies come with MPEG-4 video and voice recording, music playback, data storage, and web cam capability, as well as taking pretty damn…
CES gives us a chance to see all the fancy audio equipment you don’t get to ogle very often (unless you hit one of those pretentious stores where the geeky workers are more excited about their equipment than ever, ever getting a date). So it was nice to see that you could get such huge…
I have to admit, I’ve never heard of Interact-TV. And I hadn’t heard anything about its new TravelTelly PMP until just about now. But hell, it’s here and it says it can easily download programs, music and digital photos, so why not check it out? The company claims DVD quality playback on its 3.5″ TFT…
Ok, here’s a pretty good partnership for ya. Looks like Motorola and Kodak have have played nice and decided to come together for a new “mobile-imaging experience.” What that means to us is better imaging in our Motorola phones. The collaboration covers licensing, sourcing, software integration, marketing, and extends to co-development of image-rich devices with…
We realize that sometimes you need a catchy marketing technique for your company, but don’t get this desperate, mkay? DS International makes a whole slew of iPod accessories and other OEM junk in Taiwan, but they also make the Googolboard and Googolpad. Pronounced just like everyone’s favorite search engine, the logo even has the same…
Didigo has come up with a bunch of pretty-looking, colorful flash drives. The drives feature a unique BCD (Bi-stable Cholesteric Display) that has no battery or power. The screen displays information such as the drive name, remaining disk space, and a nifty little pie chart showing how much space is being used—all without any power,…
Motorola unveiled the ROKR E2 cellphone at CES and it’s got the much-needed improvements that could make it a great phone. First and foremost, hell froze over and Motorola didn’t use that horrible old interface. The company instead went with its new Linux-based system which is a lot nicer, easier to use, and runs great…
Apparently TiVo has been giving up some details about the Series 3 today—no official announcements, but the writer at Megazone has somehow gotten the scoop. It’s an HDTV unit with two CableCARD slots in back, and a window that shows what you are watching/recording while it’s at work. Yes, the unit is dual-tuner – actually,…
Tags: Lazy toys, battery powered flotation device, marketed with picture of guy using armrest beer holder. Technological Innovation: Two motorized propellers on the bottom. Overhead quote: “I guess if you can’t afford a boat…” Uses: Buy two of these and play chicken in the swimming pool. Peripheral Device: Remote controlled floating drink tray.
The thing I love about this DMB-T750 portable 7-inch LCD TV set from Samsung is its retro-futuristic style. I mean, it’s all shiny white like an iPod with those clear buttons. At the same time, it’s got a handle—and when is the last time you saw anyone using a portable terrestrial TV who wasn’t at…
Moto showed a futuristic Bluetooth earpiece called the H5 Miniblue today. It’s an in-ear speaker, about the diameter of a quarter, and it picks up your voice through your ear canal. It comes with a charging base that has a rechargeable battery inside. So you can plug in the base, charge it up, then unplug…
Too lazy to build a MAME cabinet? Just buy one. Gameroom classics has four units on display this year including a new Capcom-only table-sized cabinet. The one thing that still grinds my gears: none of these damn machines have Galaga, debatably the best arcade game of all time. I mean, honestly, the Galaga ship could…
Sony’s new Reader is fantastic and we want one immediately. The price point is going to be painfully high, with guesstimates in between $300 and $400, but it’s everything the Librié—Sony’s first-generation, Japan-only ePaper-based eBook reader (whew)—should have been. Not only is the display amazing (and amazingly readable), but Sony promised us that there would…
These sunglasses look an awful lot like the THUMP/RAZRWIRE but are in fact much more viable. These are Bluetooth headphones, there is no built-in MP3 player to mess with. It just streams the music from your phone, but all the controls are on the glasses (which have a Plutonite lens and semi-rimless design). This makes…
At Intel’s ViiV showcase there was this… artwork?… that didn’t work. Basically those long tubes had glowing orbs inside, and by swinging them around, or rubbing them or something, it’s supposed to bring up different videos on the banks of overhead monitors on the periphery of the thing. Some images flickered on every so often,…
