To be honest, we would rather have heard about a new Samsung Blu-ray player that’s $100 cheaper than the BD-P1500, not $100 more expensive. On the other hand, the new player, in stores now, does have 7.1 channel Dolby TrueHD lossless audio output, USB and ethernet jacks, HDMI-CEC and is compatible with MPEG2, VC-1 and […]
Like wood? Then you’ll love Radius’ new speaker and earbuds for MP3 players and other things what have audio outputs. Due next month, the little ebony wood speaker offers up just 1 watt, but hey, it’s a speaker! In addition to the 3.5mm stereo mini-plug, it has a USB port for recharging the unit’s battery. […]
Yes, you lucky students, you. Those of us who’ve already learned everything there is to know don’t have access to this sweet deal, which is Office 2007 Ultimate for just $59.99. In case you never bothered to look, the non-student version is $679.99. That is, in fact, an ultimate steal. Microsoft
Image Metrics is a company that specializes in incredibly lifelike facial animation. And they do it incredibly well. As proof, check out their Emily project, which shows off their technology that, unlike motion capture systems, uses no special markers, makeup or cameras.

Yeah, yeah, I know, you saw that headline coming a mile away. That aside, these look really nice…hopefully the production pieces are as nice as those in the photos, but based on Kidrobot’s track record for quality, I’d say it’s very likely. There are 27 figures in all, including 3 chase figures. Prepare to drop […]

The cast includes Jenny McCarthy, Tim Curry, George Takei, Jonathan Pryce, J.K. Simmons, Peter Stormare, Kelly Hu, Andrew Divoff and a bunch of others – many extremely talented […]
After searching for eight months for the right writer for The Hobbit, Producer Peter Jackson and Director Guillermo del Toro have decided that it’s probably best if they do it themselves, with the help of Lord of the Rings trilogy writing contributors Frank Walsh and Philippa Boyens. The Hobbit is slated for a late-2009 shoot […]
Pirates was always my favorite specialty theme (well, tied with Space). Heck, I still have all of the original Pirates sets. All of the ones released mass market in the U.S. anyway. And a few others. So it’s with much joy that we hear that Pirates are making a comeback for 2009! Thanks to a […]
Dell’s Precision Workstation M4400 is available for order on Dell’s website now, and we have to say, this is a pretty cool looking laptop with it’s high-tech industrial design. And we always loves us some eSATA on a laptop. Dig. Hit the clicky thingie for specs & pricing.
Yup. That’s it. No more info than that. Just like the last one. But, hey, at least there should now be fewer, you know, bugs.
