Bamboo water bottle to keep you safe from drinking unwanted stuff

Bamboo water bottle to keep you safe from drinking unwanted stuff

I’m not sure what’s wrong with using a simpleton water bottle made of strong and sturdy fibre plastic. Perhaps it’s not trendy and pretty. But they said that this Phyllostachys Pubescens bamboo made water bottle will hold many hot and cold beverages without ever allowing chemicals to leach into your drink. Hopefully they won’t crack that easily when I smash it while cycling, and won’t crack if my little nephew took a fork and stabbed it. Yours for only $25, if you don’t like anybody to know what you’re drinking.

Logitech announce new challenger for Razer Mamba and Microsoft X8.

Logitech announce new challenger for Razer Mamba and Microsoft X8.

Wireless gaming mouse has been under heavy fire from many gaming community, purely because of the delays caused by the wireless transmission. Thought, many had argued back because they’ve tried it and nearly no lag felt, like how the Razer Mamba performed. What’s more, the great freedom of using a wireless mouse had already attracted many gamers onboard the wireless gear ship. The only thing stopping me from buying a wireless gaming mouse would be the battery life, as I hate to keep on replacing batteries in few months, and when I had forgotten to replace the battery and it died halfway while I’m busy using it. Luckily the Mamba is a hybrid of both wired and wireless. Now Logitech has entered the scene with their own version of the wireless gaming mouse, the G700. Read more…

RIM’s BlackPad might come this November, priced at $499

Apple Daily has some new rumours of the BlackPad that was so mysterious. Besides giving the Apple iPad a kick in the shiny metal butt with some modern specs like front-and-rear-facing cameras, it’s going to sport 9.7-inch multitouch panel. Other standard specs would be like Bluetooth, and Wi-Fi 802.11n. Quanta is said to have won the bid to manufacture the tablet with plans to ramp up for 2 million units starting in September, with another 8 million planned for 2011. Quite ambitious there. But with the price of $499, RIM would need to have more tricks up its sleeve.

The heart’s a new Atom D525 with 1.8GHz speed and 1MB of L2 cache. This is no ordinary Atom processor, as spec wise it’s a dual-core Atom with HyperThreading (HT) which means you’ll be seeing 4 threads in your windows. Read more…
