RCA’s AirPower has been repackaged to better hide the snake oil inside
Posted on March 30, 2010 | No Comments
The RCA Airnergy AirPower is curious little device. It is supposed to harvest WiFi signals and convert them into usable energy, which is then sent out over a USB cable to charge a gadget. Yeah, think of the possibilities. But while the technology really does exist and has been demonstrated, it seems a little to easy. Apparently RCA is serious about the product line and has ditched the name Airnergy in favor of AirPower and is now showing off a slightly more polished look than the ones seen at CES 2010.

Video: Samsung explains why their Super AMOLED screen is better than your normal AMOLED screen
Posted on March 9, 2010 | No Comments
Samsung's pretty proud of their Super AMOLED technology - and why shouldn't they be? With next to no fanfare, they managed to knock out the readability issues that plagued AMOLED handsets any time they were within view of the sun. And if vastly improved readability wasn't enough, they went and slimmed the whole thing down into a package considerably tighter than the competition's not-so-sun friendly offerings.
Samsung's compiled a nifty little video showing off all the reason why their Super AMOLED displays deserve their name.

Verizon to launch 4G in up to 60 markets by mid-2012
Posted on February 26, 2010 | No Comments
Everything moves at a lightning pace in the mobile world - everything, that is, except network rollouts. Where as handsets can go from announced to old news in the blink of an eye, network upgrades.. can't.
Take Verizon's upgrade to 4G technology, for example: they announced the move to LTE in February 2009, and began testing in one small market nearly half a year later. They'll be firing it up for commercial use for the first time later this year, with plans to launch in 30 markets before the year is out.
Fortunately, things seem to be speeding up. Verizon has just disclosed plans to double their LTE footprint, just a bit over 1 year after launch.

Nooka Augmented Reality Accessorizer: Not real but it should be
Posted on February 18, 2010 | No Comments
Nooka is one of our favorite brands and these guys created a new way to try on a Nooka watch at home. By using augmented reality technologies - albeit technology that may not work quite yet - you can try on any watch just by putting on a specially coded bracelet. The system senses the position of your hand and lets the Nooka watch appear in 3D right on your wrist. It's honestly an amazing idea and someone better patent it before Trojan and Victoria's Secret get their hands on it.
