The Nexus 6 is pretty difficult to come by. Google only releases stock in stages, and carriers are just now getting the device. On top of all that, some can’t even figure out pricing, which recently caused last-place Sprint to issue contract credits for over-charging customers. Now, AT&T has run dead into the Nexus wall, and have chosen to return all … Continue reading
Nintendo appears very much to be aiming all efforts for a resurgence at the holiday season, and with big hits – proven hits – like Super Smash Bros and Mario Kart, they may well be in for some heavy business. The Wii U hasn’t been selling at nearly so high a rate as either the PlayStation 4 or the Xbox … Continue reading
Since the Iron Man arc reactor is a fictitious device, and it has no official scientific explanation in the Iron Man canon that I’m aware of, we might as well something up. Now, I’m mixing real science and fake science here. So physics nerds and comic-book nerds: Deal with it.
Your smartwatch may may be the height of wearables today, but it can’t get you out of a supervillain’s elaborate death trap. That’s where Patrick Priebe’s LaserWatch comes in, which is like something out of a Bond flick. On the surface, it looks like…
Earlier this week amidst an ethical and public relations catastrophe , Uber announced new Spotify integration that lets you play music of your choice on the ride-sharing service. Uber just let me take it for a spin, and it’s admittedly a nice touch for the Uber riders of the world.
So far, the biggest benefit of 3D-printing organs is that you don’t need someone to donate their body to medical science before you can do an experiment. That’s why Organovo’s big news is so exciting for scientists, since the company has let it be…
Monoprice’s 27″ 2560×1440 IPS display has long been a favorite cheap alternative to Apple’s Thunderbolt Display, and they’re currently offering it through their eBay storefront for just $300.

Rosetta’s journey to intercept a comet took 4 billion miles and 10 years. When it left Earth, there was no iPhone, no YouTube, no GoPro. The camera now beaming back exclusive comet photos? It has 1/1000 of the storage capacity of a modern USB stick.
What is Super Smash Bros.? It is Nintendo at its most referential, its most detail-oriented. We already said all this once before, actually. Right here. Anyway, Super Smash Bros. for Wii U (that’s seriously the full title) has finally arrived on…
Netflix might be doing extremely well for itself, having announced that this video streaming service is set to launch in both New Zealand and Australia later next March, but this does not mean that they are alone in such an industry. no sir, as Amazon could very well make a foray into this market, where it is touted that Amazon will roll out a free streaming video service. Of course, since there is no such thing as the proverbial “free lunch” in this world, such a streaming video service from Amazon would be supported by ads.
In this plan, Amazon intends to spin the service off from Prime, which happens to be Amazon’s very own premium membership club that costs $99 annually, where it offers one the ability to access its Instant Video service. Perhaps this move to launch a streaming video service could be due to Amazon’s desire for a larger audience base. As a comparison, Netflix sports 33 million subscribers, whereas Amazon is said to have approximately 25 million Prime members who make use of its video service.
-Michael Pachter, analyst at Wedbush Securities, “If (Amazon does) do an ad-supported service, they will decouple it from Prime and that is a Netflix killer.” Do you agree with that statement?
