Wiimote Keychains Project a Mario Mosaic On Your Wall [Wii]

Sat, 22 Nov 2008 05:03:05 +0000

These mini wiimote novelty keychains have a unique function—it can shine an image of your favorite Mario-Kart character on the wall at the push of a button. Fans can collect six different versions that feature Luigi, Wario, Princess Peach, Yoshi and Baby Mario—but I wouldn’t expect Mario to come flying out of the woodwork on a kart to save you when you shine the signal. Yup, your only hope is that Ron Jeremy happens to drive past you on a moped while you are getting mugged. Available for $6.

Sony demos 19-inch FED display running Gran Turismo 5 at 240 fps

Fri, 21 Nov 2008 05:06:23 +0000

FED (or Field Emission Display) hasn’t quite caught on as quickly as some other display technologies, but Sony’s still out there doing its best to move things forward, and it certainly looks to have turned more than a few heads with its latest demo. Apparently not content with simply showing off a new 19-inch display from its spin-off, Field Emission Technologies, Sony went so far as to demo it with a customized version of Gran Turismo 5 Prologue that’s playable at 240 fps. To do that, Sony used four PS3s to increase the frame rate, something it had previously done to run the game at quadruple the resolution of 1080p on a Sony SXHD projector. While that setup is out of the reach of most folks, Field Emission Technologies says that FED displays are now finally heading to market, and that some high-end professional FED video monitors up to 32-inches in size will be available sometime next year.

Filed under: Desktops, Gaming

You likely don’t need any reminders that the likes of Gateway and Dell (and Alienware) have released some new systems based around Intel’s flagship Core i7 processor, but it’s a whole other matter to sort out the multitude of options available from some of the smaller PC manufacturers out there, and we thought we’d take this opportunity to shed a bit light on some of those slightly lower profile contenders for the desktop throne.

Google's iPhone Voice Search Mobile App Now Available [Google]

Tue, 18 Nov 2008 05:02:15 +0000

That Google Mobile for iPhone with talky talky search action is now up. Our own impressions of it are good. When you’re not in a noisy place (or another phone is ringing in the background) it can pretty much translate anything you say into a meaningful phrase. “Gizmodo” was understood, surprisingly, as was “bear market” and “bare ass”. That’s right, it was smart enough to tell the difference between the words bear and bare, depending on the context. Also super cool? The jibberish noise it makes when it’s searching for something. If you’re an iPhone user, you should go get it now right here.
