Palm Pre Touchstone to be an entire product line, not just a charging dock

Although Palm’s reps basically stick to the same script when giving out those lengthy Pre walkthrough demos, every now and again they’ll let something interesting slip — like the fact that the Touchstone inductive charging dock is just the first product in an entire line of Touchstone wireless products. It’s not clear if that simply means that “Touchstone” will be Palm’s wireless power branding, or if there will be Touchstone products that do more than simply charge devices, but we’re certainly eager to find out more — and hopefully soon. Video clip after the break.

Lime green PSP in the works?


Sony might think the DSi is just for kids, but it’s never had any problems pumping out candy-colored PSPs — and the next hue off the line might be lime green, if this image supposedly leaked from inside a Sony factory is any indication. It’s, uh, seasonally appropriate, at the very least — anyone revved up by this?

Camera-packin’ Garmin Oregon 500 navigator on sale in UK

Wouldn’t you know it? That leaked Garmin Oregon 500 is indeed a real, bona fide product, and it’s on sale now for argonauts over in the UK. The outdoorsy navigator officially boasts a rugged 3-inch sunlight-readable touch panel (400 x 240 resolution), a tough, waterproof casing, a built-in electronic compass, barometric altimeter (seriously!), AA battery support, USB connectivity, a microSD card slot and a bundled carabiner clip to really set it apart. Oh, and there’s also an integrated camera for automatic picture geotagging, which seems to be a pretty rare commodity in GPS units these days. We’re not quite sure it’s rare enough to justify the lofty £353.97 ($519) price tag, but thankfully that’s not our call to make.

[Thanks, Jordan]

Elan Microelectronics demonstrates its eFinger multitouch tech running on Android

Would you look at this. Those folks at Elan Microelectronics might seem a bit slow on the lawsuit front, but they certainly look to have the tech to back up their claims of Apple multitouch patent infringement. They’re showing off what they call “eFinger Transparent Touchpad” technology, running on top of Android, and it’s looking pretty slick — we could really get used to this sort of smooth interactivity in Android, lawsuit or no. Check out the video after the break.

[Thanks, Phelipe H]

Dell faces hurdles in luxury laptop push

Updated at 9:10 a.m. PDT: correcting for refurbished Apple MacBook Air price.

Dell’s ultra-sleek Adamo may be ill-timed and grasping for cachet that’s not there.

Gizmodo summarized its review of the Adamo by saying: “Just don’t dare buy this computer until Dell comes to their senses and realizes that $2,000+ is absurd for a 4-pound laptop with no graphics muscle.”

Though I think Gizmodo misses the mark about “graphics muscle” (ultraportables are not designed or marketed as graphics powerhouses, or anything close to it), the reviewer is right about price–and high price implies cachet. Only Apple (and maybe the ThinkPad x301) can command the kind of cachet that demands $2,500 for a high-end laptop (i.e., the MacBook Air).

But there’s a greater force conspiring against the Dell Adamo and even the Apple MBA: the Netbook.

High-end Netbooks, like the just-announced 11.6-inch Acer Aspire One, are priced well below $700, making it hard to plop down $2,700 for the 1.4GHz Adamo. Yes, the four-pound Dell is a stunning, superior design (0.65-inches thick, machined-aluminum chassis) with better hardware (Core 2 processor, 128GB solid-state drive standard, 13.4-inch 16:9 HD display with edge-to-edge glass) . But is it $2,000 better? In the age of the two-pound $500 “luxury” Netbook, definitely not.

CUBE B52HD PMP handles codecs galore, HD out for silly cheap

It’s not like we’re ever going to bump into this in our local electronics store, but boy is this CUBE B52HD portable media player tempting. The thing has a 5-inch 480 x 272 LCD, all the codecs we could ask for (including fan faves like FLAC, OGG, along with plenty of video options), 1280 x 720 video out, 8GB of built-in storage and an expansion slot of some sort. We’re not sure about input methods, but hopefully the interface involves Brendan Fraser to some extent. The best news? All this can be theoretically yours for a mere 499 yuan, about $73 US.

Steam powered USB charger keeps your iPod alive with Victorian sensibility

We love this steam powered USB charging device. It’s well built, useful, loud, and totally anachronistic — the same could be said of many of our editors here. According to the inventor, the thing is based on a Jensen #75 steam engine, which is used to drive a Lego Technic motor. The motor, in turn, feeds into a voltage regulator circuit, providing a continuous 5V charge to which ever USB device you might connect to it. This prompts us to ask a few obvious questions, including: “when is someone going to build us an appropriate steampunk PMP to go with the thing?” And, of course, “aren’t Legos awesome?” Video after the break.

Toshiba Saying R.I.P. to HD DVD

This article was written on February 18, 2008 by CyberNet.

rip hddvd Toshiba is about to say farewell to HD DVD after a long hard battle. HD DVD was originally developed and designed to be the successor to regular DVDs, and they officially launched in the United States back on April 18, 2006. Their biggest problem all along has been Sony’s Blu-ray, their direct competitor which launched a few months after they did. The battle between the two has been a fierce one and both had their allies for quite some time.  It seems as though the biggest shift came in January right before CES and then it quickly went downhill from there.

Toshiba hasn’t officially announced their decision to end HD DVD, but sources inside the company say it’s coming. Reuters reports that someone at Toshiba told them anonymously that they have “entered the final stage of planning to make our exit from the next generation DVD business.” The formal announcement is expected next week. This news has some people celebrating because finally, the format war (which has been compared to the Betamax-VHS battle of the 80s) is over. Others aren’t too happy because they invested money in HD DVD players as well as movies and at this point, those players will be about useless.

Over the last several months, there has been a lot in the news regarding the battle. At different points, it looked like HD DVD was on top. At other times, Blu-ray looked like it was the winner. Let’s take a look:

It’s nice that there’s finally a clear winner, but we don’t believe Blu-ray is set to take-off like crazy. DVDs are still the preferred  choice by the majority of people because they are more affordable. Blu-ray players are much more expensive, not to mention the Blu-ray discs themselves are pricier than regular DVDs. It’ll definitely take some time before Blu-ray is able to convince the masses to spend the money upgrading to a new player and new movies.

Rest in peace HD DVD.

Dream Cheeky’s USS Enterprise webcam exudes charm and class

Now that it’s legal for George Takei to get married in Iowa, what better way to celebrate than by letting your “Trek flag” fly in your home or office? The USS Enterprise-themed USB webcam features an adjustable focus, and the red engine lights (or whatever they are) actually, you know, light up. For maximum realism, we guess. And the cable is adorned with the Star Fleet Insignia although, sadly, it will not function as a communicator. It is just a TV series, you know. No word on release date or price, but we’re keeping our eyes peeled.
