For a good many of us, seeing cars such as Lamborghinis, Ferraris, and Bugattis whiz by makes us turn green with envy, because we’re sure that many of you are probably well aware that the price of these cars are beyond the reach of the average person, so you can only imagine that when one of these car manufacturers announces a “special edition” model, well you know that’s got to cost a fortune, but if you’re fine with just looking, Bugatti has taken the wraps off the first of six special edition Veyron 16.4 Grand Sport Vitesse Legend models.

These special edition models will be based on the Grand Sport Vitesse and will share the original model’s 882kW/1500Nm 8.0-liter W16 engine. However apart from that, each of these special edition models will also feature designs that reflect the people who helped inspire them, with the model above being dedicated to race car driver, Jean-Pierre Wimille, who was one of Bugatti’s longest-serving test drivers. As pictured above, this particular model will be finished in a blue-tinted carbon fiber and light Wimille Bleu paintwork which was inspired by the Wimille’s racing colors. No word on pricing but we expect it will not come cheap.

Panasonic is going to release a new massager “Ouchi Refre” (EW-NA63) on September 1. “Refre” is a shortened version of “Refresh” and “Ouchi” means “At home” in Japanese, not “Ouch!”

It’s low frequency electrotherapy equipment that relaxes your muscles by warming them gently with the special pads.

The pads can be warmed up to 41℃. Stimulating and warming your muscles at the same time improves circulation of the blood, so “Ouchi Refre” might have a more potent effect on soothing fatigue than many other massage products.

Price: open price
Color: pink, pink gold, white
Power source: AC power
Size: 5 x 12 x 12cm
Weight: 270g

If Apple’s recently announced MacBook Air laptops with Intel’s Haswell processors aren’t powerful enough for your liking, or does not have a high-end display resolution, then chances are you might be in the market for a Retina MacBook Pro. Unfortunately according to recent rumors, it seems that if you wanted a Retina MacBook Pro with Retina display, you might have to wait until October. This was reported by the China Timeswho are claiming that suppliers are apparently having yield problems with the Retina display, thus delaying internal timetables and pushing the availability of the laptops to October.

Some analysts have reported that the new MacBook Pros are expected in September, so obviously this delay would have thrown off their predictions. In any case take it with a grain of salt for now, but if you were hoping for a Retina MacBook Pro in September with the new Intel Haswell processors, chances are you could be in for a disappointment, but then again a month wait isn’t too long, right? In the meantime we will keep our eyes peeled for more information regarding this alleged delay.

While Nokia’s high-end phones like the Lumia 1020 and the Lumia 925 sport some pretty nice hardware and features, interestingly it is still Nokia’s lower-end offerings like the Lumia 520 that are the best-sellers, appealing to emerging markets where customers want a smartphone but can’t afford more expensive devices like the iPhone or Samsung Galaxy S4. Well if you’re after an affordable Windows Phone handset, thanks to a leaked rendering obtained by WMPoweruser, we are looking at the Lumia 729 which apparently will be a variant of the Lumia 720 destined for Verizon, although the carrier’s branding on the phone seems to be missing.

In any case according to the leaked information, this handset will be placed under the Lumia 928 and the Lumia 822 and while the specs of the device remain unknown, interestingly it has been reported that the handset will feature a PureView camera, although we’re not sure if this will be of the same quality and caliber of the Lumia 1020. The pricing and release date of this alleged device remain unknown for now, but we’ll definitely keep our eyes and ears peeled for more news, so stay tuned for updates!

In Finland, home to Nokia, Microsoft’s Windows Phone operating system was reported to own about 20% of the market, numbers which are pretty impressive compared to the UK where they are at around 8.1% (impressive but not as big a number compared to 20%). However with these recent figures and despite the numbers lagging behind operating systems like iOS and Android, Nokia has remained largely positive about the Windows Phone operating system, as shared by Nokia’s vice president, Bryan Biniak. However while Biniak is pleased with the state of things, given that Nokia has pretty much put all of their proverbial eggs in the Windows Phone basket, he believes that Microsoft, too, needs to step up their game.

According to Biniak, “People rely on applications for their day-to-day life and if you don’t have something which I use in my day-to-day life I’m not going to switch [operating systems] because I don’t want to compromise the way I live my life just to switch to a phone […] It’s not just about the hardware, it’s about the tools that are on the hardware. You can’t sell a phone without the apps, you just can’t.” We can’t help but agree with Biniak’s statement, especially since many big name developers tend to release apps for Windows Phone as an afterthought, as opposed to making it their priority versus iOS and Android. In any case hopefully with the next update to Windows Phone, we will start seeing more developers pay attention to the platform.
