The set of 6 shot glasses includes graphics from six retro Atari arcade games: Asteroids, Centipede, Pong, Breakout, Missile Command and the aforementioned Battle Zone. The flip side of each...

iphad: turn your iphone into an ipad
Technabob pal Metin Seven of Sevens Heaven just tipped us off tho his hilarious original illustration that pretty much sums up all the hype (and disappointment) about the Apple iPad in a single image. I’d like to see you guys try and fit this thing in your pocket. Funny thing is that some iPhone accessory manufacturer out there will probably steal this idea and actually start making these. [via...

apple already selling ipad (sorta)
I was checking out the App Store to see if anyone had already been releasing updates for their applications to take advantage of the larger screen on the new Apple iPad, and much to my surprise, I found this: Apparently, a company called Groove Systems has been selling an application in the App Store called “iPad” since sometime back in late 2009. Whoops! Somehow the Apple lawyers didn’t... [Read more]

Do you love playing games with your Wii-mote, but prefer a joystick to a D-Pad? Well have I got something for you!

apple ipad tablet price, release date and specs confirmed
Apple today took the wraps off of their much-hyped iPad tablet computing device. As predicted, the iPad works sort of like exactly like an iPhone on steroids, and is focused on media consumption, entertainment and educational usage. Not a whole lot of surprises here, but the iPad still looks like a sweet computing and media gadget – especially if you don’t already have a netbook. Let’s... [Read more]

augmented hyper(reality): pop-up ads take over your walls
When I first watched Keiichi Matsuda’s Augmented (hyper)Reality video, I wasn’t sure if I should be awed or frightened by his vision of the world that lies in front of us. Matsuda’s stunning video clip was created as part of his Masters’ program at the Bartlett School of Architecture, and envisions a future in which augmented reality has embedded itself into our everyday lives,...

thomson technicolor pommes: mystery iptv tablet has nothing to do with apple
While I was buzzing about over on the FCC website today, I came across this mysterious new device from France’s Thomson and Technicolor called the PoMMeS. The funny thing is that the word “pomme” is the French word for “apple”, so in a way, you are looking at the first pics of an apple tablet. The gadget is a wireless multimedia playback device, and according to the PoMMeS... [Read more]
