Checking out the HP Touchmark PC demo on YouTube. Watch it and then let’s discuss it. The question on everybody’s lips is, why didn’t Apple do this? Your first hint: look at the way the guy is standing. Few people use their PCs in that position. I tried emulating the feeling a little, by making stupid gestures in front of my laptop. I’m pretty fit, but it did get annoying after a while. Having a ...

There are several weird things about this Farrah Fawcett Shampoo ad: Her sweater, the "stash bag" hanging around her neck, the fact that she is sitting on a picket fence with her legs spread. That said, her hair sure looks pretty! Click to enlarge. [Vintage Ads]

Cranberries When I think about holiday food, I can't picture a meal that doesn't have something containing cranberries -- even if it's just cranberry sauce from a can. There MUST be cranberries. That said, here are my three personal favorite cranberry recipes. Don't be afraid to make them all; you won't be disappointed. Do you have a favorite cranberry recipe? Let's hear it in the comments -- I love to try new recipes. Mom's Orange-Cranberry ...

All of last week I was struggling to make the big decision of whether or not to leave behind my beloved Moto Q (Sprint) for the brand new T-Mobile G1. I’ve been a Sprint customer since December of 2003 and I’ve been quite pleased with their service, especially their network’s great coverage and lightening fast speed. However, they have always been lacking in terms of innovative handsets and great video support. Don’t get me wrong, ...

Another dark day in Taiwan's historyIn yet another incredibly provocative move by the still-new Ma Ying-jeou (馬英九) government, former president Chen Shui-bian (陳水扁) was handcuffed by police and taken into custody this afternoon. A trial by public opinion has been conducted by leaking information and using the media to create an impression of guilt based on insinuation before actual evidence has been shown to the public.Breaking NewsTalking Show (大話新聞) just reported that Chen Shui-bian was ...

Ha appena fatto capolino sul web una roadmap interna (ed ora, chiaramente, non più tale) degli smartphone Nokia S60, che comprende tutti i dispositivi della casa finlandese dal 2007 fino alla seconda metà del 2009. Del passato, ovviamente, poco ce ne cale, mentre tra le novità che ci aspettano dietro l’angolo (o quasi) troviamo degli elementi estremamente interessanti, primi fra tutti tre nuovi dispositivi dotati di touch-screen, ed uno dotato di fotocamera da ben 8 ...

The AT&T Quickfire will be heating up the competition with the T-Mobile Sidekick when it is released on November 10 this year. This tri-band cell phone will only cost $99 with a 2-year contract—$299 without—and doesn't seem like a Windows Mobile phone, or any other OS we've ever seen. The Quickfire includes a touch screen, full slide-out QWERTY keyboard, 3G, a music player, and GPS, and will come in orange, lime and silver. [Engadget Mobile ...

BoomTown has finally gotten used to the silly gee-gaws television networks use on election night, like touch-screen maps and drawing all over the screen and jump-up numbers. But one used by CNN last night–a hologram of various people beamed into the studio to look like they were with Wolf Blitzer and Anderson Cooper–was downright freaky. Using lots of high-definition cameras, fancy computers and, I guess, magic, CNN reporter Jessica Yellin (see video below) was the ...

Filed under: Displays You know you've made it when your little-laptops-that-could sit atop a market-share big enough to support third-party device-hackery like this. It's "easy," it's "fun," it's a solder-less DIY touch-screen kit made specifically for the Acer Aspire One and Eee PC 900/901 netbooks. The 4-wire, resistive panel display with Mac, Linux, and Windows drivers sure looks easy enough to install. But we'll wait for the reviews to see just how well the $96 ...
