Guest T14K Posted January 6, 2010 Share Posted January 6, 2010 "Sure, the iPhone does a commendable job with heavy-duty 3D acceleration for intense virtual reality gaming, but funk that noise -- these guys want to bring you the real thing. Parrot -- better known for its Bluetooth accessories -- has introduced the AR.Drone, a WiFi-enabled remote control helicopter that takes its commands from the iPhone or iPod touch of your choice. The wacky toy has a pair of on-board cameras, one to help steady itself and the other to beam a live bird's-eye view (almost literally, if you pretend for a moment that this is in fact a bird) from the captain's seat onto your phone's screen. Parrot's mainly pushing the hardware here -- it's offering up a host of open source goodies to help developers learn about the product and figure out how to turn it into a must-have toy with replay value, and they'll have plenty of time to do so since it won't be available to consumers until "sometime in 2010." Follow the break for a video of the AR.Drone mercilessly hunting down and destroying all who dare oppose it." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest T14K Posted January 6, 2010 Share Posted January 6, 2010 At long last we can say we've experienced a laptop with dual, gargantuan touchpads. The new NX90Jq has squandered a large amount of base real estate on massive, plastic touchpads, and we're digging it -- even if we don't totally understand it. Of course, if you've ever plugged two USB mice into a computer at once, you know exactly how these two pads work in concert, which is to say they don't. Outside of that we've got some real design chops on display, and a nearly disturbing but ultimately pretty impressive mirror back. http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/05/asus-nx90jq-hands-on-dual-touchpads-unite/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest T14K Posted January 6, 2010 Share Posted January 6, 2010 It seems ASUS is still cutting down bamboo right and left in an effort to be eco-friendly. We don't have much to go on yet, but ASUS has just unveiled its new U Series Bamboo Collection laptops. First up in the collection is the U53. We don't have specs on this guy yet, but here's what we do know: it boasts a Core i5 CPU, discrete graphics, and USB 3.0 support. Stay tuned for some more information and hands-on shots. http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/05/asus-announces-u-series-bambook-collection-laptops-gives-little/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest T14K Posted January 6, 2010 Share Posted January 6, 2010 We know, you're so surprised. Google's finally confirmed the Nexus One. We've naturally heard all about the phone already from dubious sources, and even reviewed the purported device, but now that they've got one in hand up on a stage, we suppose we'll have to set aside all of our doubts. So, the nitty gritty: 3.7-inch AMOLED display, 1GHz Snapdragon processor, compass, GPS, accelerometer, light and proximity sensor, 5 megapixel camera with LED flash, 3.5mm headphone jack, and a multicolored LED under the trackball. There are also two mics onboard, one on the bottom and one on the back, for the purpose of noise cancellation à la Motorola's CrystalTalk, and the phone is naturally running the brand new Android 2.1. The phone is actually HTC branded, unlike the pre-release versions we've seen, and can be custom engraved with two lines of text at the time of order, for that extra personal touch (there's a picture of the phone's back after the break). The phone is available today off contract with a T-Mobile compatible radio for $529 unlocked, shipping to the US, UK, Singapore and Hong Kong, or with a two year T-Mobile US contract for $179 (both with free overnight shipping in the US). Most surprisingly, the phone is also headed to Verizon this Spring, and Vodafone will score the device eventually as well. http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/05/googles-nexus-one-is-official/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shai Posted January 6, 2010 Share Posted January 6, 2010 What happened to the data phone? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest T14K Posted January 6, 2010 Share Posted January 6, 2010 google bought the company that allows you to do that stuff. Remember how long it took for google voice to come out after they bought grand central. Im gonna call a company and see if there is a way to do a data only plan. cause as it stands i can make all my calls over data because i got a gizmo5 account before goog bought them... "10:54AM Recap time: A new way to buy a mobile phone from Google, with or without service. Nexus One is the first phone in this new model, and in the future: more operators, more countries, and more devices." so basically im waiting for whatever the slide out qwerty phone ends up being. haha.

Guest T14K Posted January 6, 2010 Share Posted January 6, 2010 It was 2001 that Bill Gates first introduced the Tablet PC in Las Vegas. Tomorrow, if the New York Times is correct, will see the launch of what could be Microsoft's next take on the Tablet PC right here at CES. According to "people familiar with Microsoft's plans," Steve Ballmer will introduce an HP-built "slate-type computer" during the opening CES keynote. The rumored device is said to be a "multi-media whiz with e-reader and multi-touch functions" in tow that could be available by mid year. So what will it be? The Courier supported by a full-suite of content partners, or will it be just another Windows tablet in search of mass market acceptance? You'll find out tomorrow right here at Engadget. http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/05/microsoft-to-reveal-hp-slate-tomorrow/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
