Panasonic PT-AE1000U - 1080p LCD Projector debuts, Film Theaters Throw In Towel
October 30, 2006
Panasonic Canada — which is just like the real Panasonic, only more polite and with a great love of hockey — has announced its first LCD home theater projector with 1080p native resolution. The projector, called the PT-AE1000U has a contrast ratio of 11,000:1 with 1,100 lumens of brightness, thanks to Panasonic’s new optical system. The projector is yet another blow against movie theaters, who have resorted to leaving a trail of overpriced popcorn on the streets in hopes that someone will come in, buy a $30 dollar box of Whoppers and watch any number of terrible movies therein.

October 26, 2006
If you’re like us, using your laptop touchpad mouse for extended periods of time sends you into a bloodthirsty rage that only a nice cup of coffee and your laptop’s immediate execution can cool. Luckily, Newton Peripherals has invented what is possible the coolest mouse ever known to man — a mouse they proudly call the Mogo Mouse, a mouse that is powerful enough that if it flew around the Earth in reverse, time would go backwards.
Bottle Camera Pod Makes Beer Even More Useful
October 25, 2006
Photo Etc. Online, a company known for their off-the-wall but fairly useful camera-related innovations have released a “multi-purpose bottle camera pod.” For those of you who don’t have the pleasure of knowing what in the world that is — it’s an attachment that hooks up to your digital camera and allows it to be held up by soft drink bottle cup with a diameter of 28.5mm to 30.5mm (rendering our title joke moot — we apologize for those of you reading this because of their intense liking of beer and cameras joined in an unholy union.)
GPS Navigation Teddy Bear Cuddliest GPS That Ever Was
October 24, 2006
Japan, the only country capable of creating a technology that’s simultaneously creepy, cute and with little or no sense behind it, has released a GPS system in shape of a cuddly teddy bear that will sit on your dashboard and guide you to your location of choice. We’re not exactly sure what inventor had the brilliant idea of combining a small, furry animal that kids love to squeeze with a GPS system, but we can only assume that at first people called him mad — mad they’d say.

PS3 Controller Cools Hands, Defeat Aliens
October 20, 2006
With the pending release of Sony’s Playstation 3, Logitech has already released an accessory for the system that is guaranteed to blow minds and cool fingers. It isn’t easy playing ten hours of video games a day — it’s even harder when your palms start getting sweaty and in a fury of alien-shooting the controller slips out of your hands and kills a family member. Thankfully, Logitech is here to help with a gadget that, while seemingly silly, is going to sell like the delicious hotcake that it is.
iPod Video Carries Windows Virus, News Surprises No One
October 19, 2006
Apple has warned Window users that a small number of video iPods — less than 1% — contain a virus. The virus does not, of course, affect Apple computers, but it does burrow its way into the Windows security settings and lower them — which, for Windows users, is kind of like catching a cold when you’re used to catching syphilis — we’re just not impressed by you, RavMonE.exe.
Navicore Announces Tiny GPS, Tiny People Elated
October 18, 2006
Navicore, a company that sounds a little bit like the company that turned everyone into Zombies in some horror film, has released the world’s smallest Bluetooth GPS receiver — small enough to be worn around the neck with a lanyard. The tiny little device will have a full navigation system for use while driving, cycling, or walking — and will also include a pocket guide that includes thousands of points-of-interest, public roads, restaurants, and so on. The gadget ensures not only ease-of-use and portability, it also makes sure we will never wander the streets aimlessly for days on end, looking for food and/or tourist attractions.
