A Nixie Tube display that looks like something Q would use
Posted on June 3, 2010 | No CommentsTim at The Transistor in Provo, Utah, built his own Nixie display using an Arduino board, a serial converter, and a heavy-duty DC-DC converter to power the tubes. More great videos after the jump. The best parts are those crazy punch-labeled toggle switches that look like something Q would hand 007 before a mission. He also [...] -

LG Arena GT950 leaks out with AT&T branding
Posted on January 1, 2010 | No CommentsLooks like AT&T is about to get a version of the LG Arena -- these shots of a GT950 with the carrier's branding just hit the tubes. The phone hasn't been officially announced by either AT&T or LG, but the safe bet is that the 950 is just a bespoke variant of the familiar Arena KM900, so look for a three-inch 800 x 480 touchscreen with LG's S-Class UI, a five megapixel camera, GPS, Wi-Fi, and 8GB of storage. We'll have to see whether this hits at CES next week or MWC in February -- but until then you can get a feel for this thing by checking out our KM900 hands-on video right here.

Video: The LG eXpo’s projector accessory gets demoed
Posted on December 21, 2009 | No Comments
Outside of a completely simulated appearance in a commercial, we've been hard-pressed in finding any video of the LG eXpo's projector attachment in action. We expected to see some hit the Tubes after the handset launched last week - alas, the projector accessory still hasn't hit the shelves.
Fortunately, the guys over at MobileSyrup have managed to scrounge one up north of the border.

NZXT releases the updated Tempest EVO gaming chassis
Posted on November 17, 2009 | No CommentsThe NZXT Tempest is a great case. It’s, has tons of room, a sleek look, and amazing airflow. But it seems everyone’s chief complaint is that it’s very loud. The newly redesigned Temptest EVO aims to solve that problem. The new case is almost the same thing except the fans have been reworked to take the [...] -
Wait, Microsoft’s Project Natal will be $80? That can’t be right
Posted on November 11, 2009 | No CommentsThere is a rumor swirling around the tubes this morning that Microsoft’s motion controller Project Natal will be $80 when it comes out next November. First off, there is no way that the Wii-killer be $80 based on precedents set by the current crop of Xbox add-ons. But more importantly, if the controller system is only $80, it [...] -
Nokia N97 firmware 2.0 hits the tubes, is ready for your attention
Posted on October 27, 2009 | No CommentsFiled under: Handsets, Software, Nokia, Symbian
Got an N97? Yeah? Reckoned that Nokia has forgotten about your loyalty and moved all of its focus onto the N900? Fret not, dearest early adopter -- the engineers in Espoo are making good on a promise to clear out lots of bugs in the aforesaid handset with firmware 2.0, and if we're seeing this right, it's available now to download all over the world.

Mac Mini and iMacs to be in short supply, update coming soon?
Posted on September 29, 2009 | No Comments
Apple has apparently told its direct-sales partners like the Apple Stores not to order new iMacs or Mac Minis and don't expect any more shipments either. This can mean only one of two things: Apple is going bankrupt or there are new models coming real soon.

A real, hand-made bamboo bike
Posted on September 24, 2009 | No Comments
So this is a bike made entirely of bamboo. That's right - there's no metal under those tubes. The maker put his entire process on Instructables and seems to be able to ride the thing without it exploding on him. However, he uses epoxy and other stuff to keep it together, which is slightly disconcerting.

How does a 55-inch LED HDTV from Samsung sound to you?
Posted on July 30, 2009 | No CommentsAs a reader of CrunchGear, I can only assume that you're familiar with a recent invention called “television.” It's truly a remarkable thing: it transports lights and sounds from the four corners of the planet, and brings them right to your living room. It's like you're actually at the big game! A recent upgrade, called high-definition television, improves the quality of the picture. Samsung, which is a company based in far-away South Korea, has a new line of high-definition televisions called the 8500 Series. It uses something called light-emitting diodes (“LEDs”) to light up the image—no more replacing tubes!

Giant Router Clock Shows When Internet Tubes Are Clear
Posted on July 16, 2009 | No CommentsIf you took a roulette wheel and the old electronic follow-the-music game, Simon, you’d end up with something like the Route O-Clock. It is a (prototype) broadband router which detects bandwidth use and displays this information using colors on a clock-like display which divides the day into half-hour segments. The idea is that it helps [...] -
Video: Nearest Subway App Overlays Virtual Maps on Real World
Posted on July 16, 2009 | No CommentsForget Google’s Street View, which overlays a view of the street in front of you on… the street in front of you. No, for a look at what augmented reality applications can really do, and just why a compass is so useful in the iPhone 3GS, take a peek at New York Nearest Subway. The application [...] -
Vacuum Tube Chess Set Flickers and Glows
Posted on July 7, 2009 | No CommentsThis wonderful vacuum tube chess set, by maker Paul Fryer, actually has electricity running inside the board so that the tubes can draw power and glow as you move them from square to square. It is called, somewhat appropriately, Chess Set for Tesla, and Paul actually made seven sets last year. The colors respect the good/evil [...] -
iPhone 3G S video sample makes its way to the tubes
Posted on June 17, 2009 | No Comments
Do you get your mitts on your iPhone 3G S yet? No? Don't worry - neither did we. Neither did most people, really. But somewhere out there, some guy did - and he's already crackin' away at helping people make informed decisions one video sample at a time.
We can't say for absolute certain that this video comes from an iPhone 3G S, but it all seems to fall in place. Widescreen recording? Check. iPhone 3G S box in view? Check. Going through the effort of making a fake box this close to the eleventh hour just for the sake of faking a video sample seems a bit silly, so we'll give him the benefit of a doubt. Good job, video-sample-shooting action hero. Check it out after the jump.
