Penthouse “smallest” watch phone is neither the smallest nor related to Penthouse
Posted on May 18, 2010 | No CommentsThis weird monstrosity is the Penthouse watch phone. It’s creators claim that it is the “smallest” watch phone available, which is, as we see, a lie. It’s not even smaller than the crazy Kempler & Strauss W Phone, another good idea gone bad. What’s worse, this has nothing to do with Penthouse, which was my [...] -

Ride the City bike routing service hits the iPhone
Posted on April 19, 2010 | No CommentsFriends of CG Jordan Anderson and Vaidila Kungys, creators of Ride the City New York just released their first Ride the City iPhone app [download] for NYC. The app, like the service, offers safe bike routes through New York and is based on the OpenStreetMap project. It costs $1.99. To use it, you simply enter your start and end points and then follow the route. The map takes into consideration low-traffic roads as well as dedicated bike lanes to get you from point A to a Russian bath house in the East Village. It also works on the iPad, but it will be hard to keep one hand free to signal when you're lugging your slate around.

You know you want to play Resident Evil in 3D
Posted on March 17, 2010 | No CommentsSurely you've heard of Shinji Mikami, right? He's basically "the Resident Evil guy," and he's got 3D on the brain. He told Famitsu, that famous Japanese video game magazine, that he wants to disband his current studio (Straight Story) and form a new one, one for creators, by creators (as opposed to one by run by know-nothing businessmen).

Raytheon deploying Android-powered RATS on battlefields in Afghanistan and Pakistan
Posted on October 21, 2009 | No CommentsAndroid, Android everywhere. Android, Android in my hair. In my Nook and in my car in my netbook and in my... wait, Afghanistan? It seems defense contractor Raytheon, creators of the famous "pain ray", have launched a device called RATS: the Raytheon Android Tactical System. It allows soldiers to mark other soldiers and even UAVs as "buddies," then track their position in real time on a map, even picking up streaming video coming from above -- sort of like Latitude but putting a whole new spin on stalking. No word on how soldiers like their new devices so far, but once a Twitter app is added we're sure they won't shut up about it.
Raytheon deploying Android-powered RATS on battlefields in Afghanistan and Pakistan originally appeared on Engadget Mobile on Wed, 21 Oct 2009 08:51:00 EST. Please see our terms for use of feeds.
