As everyone knows the new MacBook Pro’s use a nice motion sensor for its iSight software and various other applications but the coolest is a mod out there is a feature that allows you too switch desktops with just a little tap. This mod alone makes me want to purchase a MacBook Pro (the fact that its one of the fastest laptops out there also help a lil too)

It looks like Microsoft is finally fighting back agianst Sony and its Blu-Ray PS3, Looks like some pictures have surfaced showing the upcoming EXTERNAL drive for the Xbox 360. While i’m happy Xbox 360 will soon have HD DVD support i wonder what exactly type of connection its will use, last time i checked HDMI and DVI were absent from the Xbox 360. Also if you are listening Microsoft, the idea of using an external drive to play games seems counter productive, why not save money and put it in the rig itself, seems to me like we are just getting screwed out of our money pretty hard. However the price for the external drive seems to be around the $100 price point, making it at least an affordable option

Meizu just announced a new PMP into the market that has some striking features that resemble several of apply designs. However the beauty does pack a decent amount of features including, up to 4GB of memory, a 2.4″ screen, a microphone plug for voice recording, FM support of some kind, USB support and MP3/WAV/OGG/WMA for audio, and Xvid for video. Its battery life isn’t to bad either allowing for 20 hours of battery life for audio and 6 for video.
Apple really needs to pump out their IPod Video soon if they ever want to be a competitive force in the PMP world

Thank you Samsung. Pictured above is a Q1 and Q30 with 32GB of memory!!! These PCs are scheduled for JUNE in Korea ONLY ! The drawback is the price which will be around over $2,400.00 USD for a Q1. In case your not in the know about what a Solid State Drive is, it is flash data storage that is going to make the next generation computers super fast by eliminating time it takes for hard disks to read data.
