Lego Inspired Watches

I don’t wear watches anymore. But on weekends, I’ll put one on if I am in the mood to accessorize. This, would be something I won’t mind getting for my weekend. Strictly for weekends. Named ‘Pop Hours’, the watches are reminiscent of the classic Casio shape and come packaged in a box shaped like a Rubik’s cube. They’re due for release before the end of the year.

Club Nintendo: Original Game & Watch

Club Nintendo is freaking cool. Last year, they’ve given their members a Club Nintendo Exclusive Game & Watch games for the DS. Now, they’re bringing back the first Game & Watch released back in 1980 for it’s members. Think about it, has it been 29 years? Man! The Game & Watch was my first step into the wonderful world of gaming and gadgets. Ahhh, the memories.

Sony Updates Vaio W, With Snowflakes

This is another case of gadget roadkill. Thanks Sony! The Sony Vaio W just got updated in specs and operating system. I got my Sony Vaio W just short of 2 months ago and now – it already has got a spec bump, though slightly. It still comes with the same 10.1-inch, 1366 x 768 LCD, 1.6GHz Atom, and 1GB of RAM but now has a 250GB hardisk instead of 160GB and pre-installed with Windows 7 Starter. The snowflakes – meh.

Dell Adamo XPS, From US$1,799

Somehow, Dell’s Adamo XPS just doesn’t appeal to me. I just don’t like the idea how it’s slanted when opened up. With a US$1,799 price tag – you’ll be getting a 1.4GHz Core 2 Duo SU9400 CPU, a 128GB solid state drive, 13.4-inch WLED panel, 2 megapixel camera, 4GB of DDR3 RAM, GS45 integrated graphics, WiFi and a USB Ethernet adapter. Maybe gotta see the real unit to pump the “ooh, I want one” appeal – like the Sony Vaio X.

Vestax: Spin For Your MacBook Pro

How do you make a supercool laptop looks cooler? Easy, pair it with a SPIN from Vestax. Retailing for US$249.94 bundled with Vestax’s Djay software – designed to work seamlessly with your music collection in iTunes. Jog wheels, faders, loop control, cue points, EQ and effects buttons included – it’s all here. Talent – now that’s sold separately.

Motorola Droid Ships, No One Cared

The Motorola Droid starts selling today in the US. But no one cared. No long lines. No crazy folks camping over night. Nope. None of that. Maybe Motorola screwed up so bad the last couple of years, it’ll take some time before people start thinking otherwise. I really hope things will pick-up for Moto or Android for that matter. Too much monopoly isn’t healthy. Just observe, at the absurd number of iPhone users around you these days. It’s sickening – and that coming from an Apple fanboy. Maybe I preferred the exclusivity of being an iPhone user in the early days. Now that it’s being used by every Tom, Dick, Harry, Mary, Jane and Lucy. I did what I had to – leave. And left I did.
