I’ve seen many funny cases of people getting fired over what they said at Facebook. I’ve seen few relationships getting bombarded over scandalicious photos tagging them. But marriage ‘Game Over’ is quite the first for me. This John France dude surely let his new pet wife too loose that she posted dozens their ‘secret wedding’ photos all over the Internet. Somehow, somewhere, someone who knows John’s 1st wife, Lynn France came across those photos. My oh my what disaster did that caused. What’s worse? The lady’s last name is now “France”. W00t!!!

What you see above is a black fruit device with a ‘9300’ code, with quad-band GSM and HSDPA 850/1900/2100 radio. Designed in a fat candybar body with 802.11n WiFi, GPS, it’s got a shady 256MB of RAM. Not amazing for some, but do-able for the mass market. There’s a 2 megapixel camera at the back, microSD expansion (2GB in the box), and 2.4-inch display throwing 320 x 240 pixels.

There’s no BlackBerry 6 running in it though, but that can be easily upgraded if RIM would want to. This is actually up in Canadian Roger’s website for a price of $79.99 Canadian price. We shall see what RIM would say about this, as somehow this Curve slipped passed the announcement for the Torch 9800 and the BlackBerry 6.

Yes, another day another iPod/iPhone speaker docks. But this S715i is from Logitech, not your cheapo China-brand plasticky speaker with a cheap connector to connect to your iPod or iPhone. Now Logitech’s not planning to sell them as some normal speaker dock. They’re persuading you that this thing “sounds like a beast”. Maybe the speaker roars instead of singing. But with 8 custom-designed, laser-tuned speaker drivers that deliver “next generation”, “professionally tuned acoustics” capable of “filling a room” with “bold sound”, I guess it can really roar. Because the brand’s reputable, therefore Logitech’s throwing an extra 8-hour rechargeable battery. But other than that, it’s still a speaker. There’s nothing wrong for you to give out a sceptical face, but for $149.99, this speaker REALLY is not your typical China-brand speaker that bleeds every time you blast Lady Gaga’s song.

I remember what happened to my last Logitech headset. The audio cable snapped while I try to stand up instantly to kill that annoying mosquito, because the audio controller got stuck in the edge. Luckily my new neckband from Steelseries comes with an extender. But this new Logitech might win back my heart, as I always love Logitech products. Read more…

The Razer Lachesis has been around for nearly three years now, and the folks over at Carlsbad have given it some refreshing juice. Similar to how they update the DeathAdder not too long ago with newer sensors, the Lachesis is also getting a boost in its sensor.  The famous Razer’s 3.5G Precision sensor in the Lachesis has been bump from 4,000 dpi to 5,600 dpi.

The interface between human and machine are often as much art as they are science. A prime example is the way automobiles are controlled, in particular acceleration and braking. While nearly all vehicles over the last several decades have used a pair of adjacent foot pedals to manage those operations (with a shrinking proportion using a third for manual clutches), a third setup hasn’t gained any traction in the marketplace.

The Finnish company is well aware of the importance of apps when it comes to smartphones. That’s how Apple does it, that’s how Google does it, and basically everyone loves. Therefore, they’ve told some bunch of developers how sorry they are for screwing up last time, and promise a brighter future for Nokia’s app developers. It’s all about Qt now, no matter if you’re on Symbian or MeeGo. Check out how Nokia convince `em up.

I’ve seen many cartoons of kids controlling their RC cars like they command their pet dogs. So fake! But this Malte Jehmlich’s creation is surreal. What started as a creative idea that god his mates’ encouragement, has turned into a massive two-month project. The result is a paperboard ‘Wipeout’ with identical speed, due to the blinding scale speed of its 1/28 model cars. It’s all controlled by an arcade racing cabinet complete with steering wheel and on-screen display wirelessly connected to an Arduino board. Read more…

IPS panels market is ‘srsly’ business, unlike your typical widescreen HD monitors mushrooming all over the world. While Apple has moved out of the 30-inch business, Dell is preparing to get back in instead. Dell’s unannounced, but seemingly all too real UltraSharp U3011 has been snapped over in China. It has a formidable 2,560 x 1,600 resolution while maintaining the styling of the smaller U2711. TFT Central reports it’ll be a 10-bit H-IPS panel from LG Display, bearing a 7ms response time, 1,000:1 contrast ratio, 370 nits of overkilled brightness, and 178-degree viewing angles on both the horizontal and vertical axis. HDMI and DVI connections come in packs of two, accompanied by a lone DisplayPort. It seemed capable of giving HP’s ZR30w run for its moolah.

This is not Sanyo’s first waterproof HD camcorder, but this sure would be a hit among divers, and those wanting to make their home-made blockbuster in the pool at the backyard, or the kids’ pond if you will. I mean, Full HD is always the go right? For merely $350, you’re gonna be making your own Full HD ‘funny home videos’, aren’t you excited? But it only comes in yellow colour. Should have come in pink too. Read more…
