Sonos announces iPad app
Posted on June 22, 2010 | No Comments
I've always had a soft spot in my necrotic heart for Sonos. In the face if iPods, Zunes, mobile phones, and everything else, they've kept pumping out great, compact products for folks with big houses. They've never pretended to be too high-class for the rest of us yet you basically use their products to create soundscapes, just like Disney World, Vegas, and the haunted house I made in my basement as a kid.
Sonos just announced their iPad app - probably available in August - that allows you to control your Sonos system on the iPad's bright screen. The app allows you to browse your iTunes and Sonos collection, pick radio streams, and even set different rooms with different playlists. When I tested the Sonos kit I used to like to make my bathroom, for instance, the Drum'n'Bass room to ease evacuation.
Video after the jump.

FaceCash mobile payment apps are like real money, only with your face on it instead of someone smart
Posted on June 17, 2010 | No CommentsThinkLink's FaceCash mobile payment system has debuted several apps (for BlackBerry, iPhone, and Android devices) which allow you to pay for things merely by scanning your phone -- and showing off the attached photo to confirm it is, in fact, your own money that you're spending. You sign up, link your FaceCash account to your personal checking and savings account, and you're good to go with participating merchants. The apps can also store credit card numbers and banking information (perfect for when you lose your phone during a night of heavy partying), making it easier to leave your wallet or purse behind... or so they say. Sadly, FaceCash currently only has merchants in California, and really, who wants to live there?

Authentic Moleskine Notebook for the Kindle, it’s so edgy
Posted on June 16, 2010 | No Comments
The sense of style for a Mission District hipster can often times be too edgy for the “culturally sheltered mainstream consumer”. As a hipster you will undoubtedly rock a Moleskine notebook in the city, because let’s face it, you’ve got something intelligent to write. Let us take that one step further, and throw a Kindle inside the cover. Can you feel that edginess? It’s an analog-digital hybrid – man that’s so edgy.

AT&T apologizes to the guy they threatened to C&D for e-mailing their CEO
Posted on June 3, 2010 | No Comments
If you spend any more than a few minutes a day on the Internet, you've probably already heard the story of Giorgio G.: Upset with AT&T about his iPhone eligibility dates, he e-mails the company's CEO. A few days later, he e-mails again for a different (albeit related) matter. Within a few days, AT&T responds... with a threat to send him a formal cease & desist letter unless he stops e-mailing the CEO.
'Twas the voicemail heard around the blogosphere. Within a few hours, just about every gadget-oriented blog and news network had mentioned it, none of them too happy. Undoubtedly looking to save a bit of face in the situation, AT&T has publicly apologized to Giorgio.

Justice? 80,000 Americans facing copyright-related lawsuits
Posted on March 31, 2010 | No CommentsWe haven't really progressed beyond the year 2004, have we? With respect to copyright news, I mean. The latest: the "US Copyright Group" has filed suit against 20,000 BitTorrent users, with a cool 30,000 lawsuits now pending. If you total all the various different "Hollywood" (you know what I mean) lawsuits, that means that 80,000 Americans now face some sort of traffic-lawsuit.

Aspiral Clock makes telling time a ball
Posted on March 15, 2010 | No Comments
Most concept clocks are high on art, and low on functionality. That's not the case with the Aspiral Clock, designed by Will Aspinall and Neil Lambath. Instead of using the standard hands, this clock uses a small ball to tell the time.

Roger Ebert talks to his wife with his own voice using CereProc
Posted on March 2, 2010 | No Comments
When I saw Roger Ebert's face for the first time in that Esquire article I was so, so sad. He and Gene Siskel were a great force in movie-making (and reviewing) and their opinions mattered so much to me as a youngster and a young man. I loved watching them and loved their show. I remember they'd always have something great to say about all of the movies I loved as a kid.

Megan Fox introduces Motorola DEVOUR and looks face-slappingly good
Posted on February 7, 2010 | No Comments
For me, the best part of the Super Bowl is the commercials. And after you see this one, you may have to agree. Just note that you'll have to play the video several times over before you realize there's a phone there - the Motorola DEVOUR with MOTOBLUR, to be exact. So, what happens when Megan Fox uses her DEVOUR to send out a hot, wet image via a social network?

Samsung shows off E61, the ebook reader with a bad keyboard
Posted on February 4, 2010 | No Comments
When is a qwerty keyboard a bad idea? When it's on the Samsung E61 e-book reader. The problem with this thing isn't just the ugly keyboard, or the fact that it's obviously "inspired" by the Kindle, it's that the Samsung E6 looks promising.
