Comcast Starts COMCAST4U SMS Service: Text NOW To See What’s On TV Now (And So On)
Thursday, 09 September 2010 05:00
Comcast has a new service that could actually prove useful. Now how many times have I ever written that sentence—like zero times? That’s how big a deal that is. Anyhow, it’s called COMCAST4U, and it’s an SMS service that lets you interact with your Comcast service right from your phone. Say, you text NOW to [...]

Tearing Down The iPod Shuffle: Harder Than You Think
Thursday, 09 September 2010 05:00
Tearing down the iPod Shuffle may look easy - it is, after all, made of a few pieces of aluminium press-fitted and glued together - but the poor had a dickens of a time. Their complaint?
Although this step makes it look super-simple to open the Shuffle, it's not. It took us a good half hour of prying and heat-gunning to open the little guy. Pro tip: Aluminum gets hot when it's heated!

Need A Good Dance? Here, Take This: The Best Music by George & Jonathan
Thursday, 09 September 2010 05:00
Remember Cave Story? Two dudes (George & Jonathan) have spent the last 5 years cranking out tunes using Cave Story’s music engine, Piston Collage — and hot damn, these are some ridiculous tracks. My foot was tapping within a few beats of the first tune; by the mid-way point, I was shaking my ass so [...]

NES Coffee Table Is Both An NES And A Coffee Table
Thursday, 09 September 2010 05:00
When people come over to my apartment, they gather after a few minutes that I like games, because there is a Super Nintendo on my coffee table. But they'd probably figure it out a lot quicker if my coffee table was an actual, functioning NES the size of a normal table. That's just what Matt has, and it's very... bold.

Seiko Active Matrix EPD Watch Hands-On
Thursday, 09 September 2010 05:00
The digital watch is back. Seiko's new Active Matrix EPD watch will get you excited about non analog quartz timepieces once again. Digital has been here all along you say? Yea, that is true, but no self-respecting watch lover would wear one unless doing the laundry, mowing the lawn, or engaging in some other highly pedestrian activity. Go to any country that is "watch civilized" (sorry fellow Americans, that doesn't include the US at this point), and wear a digital watch in a business meeting or with a suit. Sure that was OK in the 1980s, but that was 20-30 years ago. This new product from Seiko reintroduces you the hassle free lifestyle of the digital watch in a polished, and highly functional little package. The holy trinity here is a great display, always accurate time, and a battery that does not need changing. Read on for all that it does below.

Amidst Howard Stern Negotiations & Numerous Talent Firings, The Question Becomes: Where Are You Going, Sirius XM?

Howard Stern, arguably the company's most recognizable on-air talent, has all but decided to negotiate his new contract in public, recently stating that “I do get a little charge out of thinking that in December we might be done. I get a little turned on by that.” Mere negotiating tactics, or a genuine feeling of wanting out? Who's to say? I'm certainly no mind reader. Stern's current contract has him making around $100m per year, and that's something Sirius XM would like to change.

Galaxy Tab Gets UK Data Plans But Subsidized Price Still Elusive
Thursday, 09 September 2010 05:00
The price of the is being rolled out as slowly as the device itself; pegged it at €700 to begin with, or £679, or several other wildly different numbers — and then a Samsung exec flipped everyone's bit by saying it would sell for under $300. It's clear that it'll probably be available both with and without a carrier picking up the tab (so to speak), but pricing for wireless data is still worth checking out.

iPhone hacker discovers a new Jailbreaking exploit; to fix it, Apple must ship new hardware
Thursday, 09 September 2010 05:00
