Dell Recharging Laptops Via A Wireless Charger

The new Dell Latitude Z laptops are pretty much more of the same… nothing super exciting about them… until you get to the fact that they recharge wirelessly (sorta).   There are other gadgets out there that have started using the wireless charging technology (like the Palm Pre) but this is…

Loaded Wallet – Looks Like A Stack Of Hundreds

For only $20 you can have a wallet that looks like a wad of $100 dollar bills.  The seller claims that the wallet will attract women… I think it may attract more muggers than women.  Just my two cents… enjoy. Feeling a little cash poor these days? Not to worry,…

Touch Wood – Is that Really The Name?

Call me juvenile… but when I saw Japan’s main cell phone carrier, NTT Docomo, pitching wood (snicker) I was cracking up.  NTT Docomo’s latest concept phone is called the TOUCH WOOD (snicker)… and is basically a phone wrapped in surplus wood.  I guess some things really are lost in translation……

Yes, we’re completely aware these Notepods are just a clever attempt to capitalize on the popularity of the iPhone and Moleskin notebooks, but we don’t care, we still want them. On one side you’ll find “52mm by 77mm of blank space floating in darkness… in a form reminiscent of a…

WTF is a Honda U3-X and why?!

Yet again, scratching an itch we didn’t know we had, Japan offers a bolder alternative to Segway. Well technically it’s just a smaller, slower and much fruitier alternative. Apparently the Honda U3-X was built on the “huge success” of the robotic technology used in the ASIMO (the robot famous for…

Why Apple Is Gaining Market Share From Microsoft…

Wow… Microsoft marketing, once again, takes the cake for the worst media/marketing material.  Their latest work of art, the Microsoft Windows 7 launch party promotional videos are high in cheese factor. You to can have an “unofficial” windows 7 launch party… just add balloons, cherries, iced tea, bright colored shirts,…
