Nokia-Microsoft partnership bears first fruit: Communicator Mobile comes to E52 and E72
Posted in: Microsoft, nokia, Today's Chili
Last time we used “Nokia” and “Communicator” in the same sentence, we were talking about a giant QWERTY clamshell with roots dating back to the mid ’90s — but yeah, that’s most definitely not what looking at here. Instead, we’re seeing the first results of Nokia’s newfound friendship with Microsoft, a build of Communicator Mobile that’s all set up to run on the S60-based E52 and E72. Granted, an enterprise instant messaging utility isn’t something we can all use, but that’s just as well since it’s limited to just two devices in Nokia’s range at the moment; eventually, it’ll be preinstalled on “select” devices and be available to a broader selection of phones already in the lineup. This is awesome, guys — now let’s get cracking on Office, shall we?

OCZ’s Enyo may be the sexiest USB 3.0 external SSD this world has ever seen
Posted in: solid state drive, SolidStateDrive, SSD, Today's Chili, usb, usb 3.0, Usb3.0
OCZ actually slipped this one into its CES 2010 reveal lineup, but at the time, no official product name was mentioned. All we knew was that an ultra-sleek external SSD was on tap, and we couldn’t wait to wrap our sickeningly sweaty palms around it. Fast forward to today, and OCZ has finally slapped a certified moniker and even a shipping status onto the Enyo, a downright gorgeous portable SSD with a native SuperSpeed USB interface. Encased in aluminum, this beaut will ship in 64GB, 128GB and 256GB flavors, with speeds of up to 260MB/sec (read) and 200MB/sec (write) promised. The company says that these are making their way out today, but mum’s the word so far on pricing. Not like it matters.
Update: We’ve received pricing direct from OCZ for the US market. The 64GB model will run $229.99, while the 128GB demands $409.99 and the 256GB version places a $819.99 dent in your credit limit.

The Desktop PC mount is a good way to make use of your tripod other than for supporting for a camera. Just take care not to load it with heavy items.

Nintendo’s black Wii console arrives early at Best Buy and Sam’s Club
Posted in: BestBuy, exclusive, nintendo, nintendo wii, NintendoWii, now shipping, NowShipping, ship, shipping, ships, Today's Chili, wii
Typical, isn’t it? A full four days before these things are supposed to go on sale to the North American masses, an image of Nintendo’s black Wii console has leaked from none other than Best Buy. This here shipment was actually received in the Great White North, but we’re more than confident that similar packages are hitting the shipping docks of Best Buy stores everywhere here in the US, too. You’ll notice that giant “Do Not Sell Before 05/09/2010” sticker there in the lower-right, but as we’ve seen in the past, all it takes is a pinch of airheadedness, a touch of charm and false sense of urgency to snag one early. Godspeed, Earthlings.
P.S. – The “old” Wii bundle is now on sale at Best Buy for $179.99 ($20 less than yesterday), and we suspect this will be a trend that continues to other retailers as the new packages roll out. Thanks, David!
Update: Seems these are arriving at Sam’s Club locations as well, though they aren’t to be sold until May 9th.

Motorola rumored to have acquired Azingo, part of some grander OS plans?
Posted in: Linux, mobile os, MobileOs, moto, motorola, os, rumor, Today's Chili
This one isn’t official just yet, but if some changes in employment status on LinkedIn is any indication, it looks like Motorola may have recently acquired mobile Linux OS company Azingo. It may not exactly be a major player in the mobile OS field, but its Linux-based Azingo Mobile OS does look to be capable enough (complete with a Webkit-based browser and Flash runtime), and the acquisition is especially interesting in light of some recent comments made by Motorola co-CEO Sanjay Jha. Back during Moto’s Q1 earnings call, he said that he has “always felt that owning your OS is important, provided you have an ecosystem, you have all the services and you have an ability and the scale to execute on keeping that OS at the leading edge,” adding that he continues to believe “that at some point, if we have all of those attributes, that owning our own OS will be a very important thing.” Is Azingo Mobile that OS? Probably not, but it’ll certainly be interesting to see where this leads — as long as it doesn’t lead to something called MOTOZINGO.
