    Video: Why think when you can watch this fun Philips Lumiblade demonstration?

    There's not too many gadgets out there that I'd spend money on. There's the Zune HD, which, while totally unreadable in direct sunlight, is still otherwise a fine portable media player. So that's one. Another one would be that Philips Wake-up Light (though that will have to wait till next month; stupid Zune HD was expensive!) I bring this up only, and I do mean only, to segue into a brief discussion of this here video of the Philips Lumiblade OLED, um, thing. Get it, Philips, lights, OLED, etc. Very high-concept.

    TouchSmart Web packs a touch interface PC into your printer

    HP TouchSmartConvergence. That's the word that comes to mind when I watch the fancy demonstration of the HP Photosmart Premium TouchSmart web printer. We've all seen the all-in-one PC design, a la the iMac, but how often do we see a printer and a computer in one package? HP is bundling a teeny little touch-interface computer with their latest set of printers, allowing you to access stuff from the Internet without using your PC at all! Some of the examples don't seem particularly useful: I don't think I'm likely to go to my printer when I want to buy movie tickets, for example, but letting kids print out their own coloring books seems like a pretty good idea to me. And printing Google Maps will be helpful for those Luddite friends of mine who don't have GPS units.

    I missed my demo of Mafia II at E3, which I'm still bummed out about, but 2K has a released a 15-minute walk through voiced over by producer Denby Grace. It looks quite good. What do you guys think? Due out later this year for the Xbox 360, PlayStation 3 and PC.
