After long hours of gaming or browsing the net, it can make your arm a bit uncomfortable. With carpul tunnel being such a major fear for those that make their living on the computer, a rest like this might help. I know after finishing my daily dose of blogging I like to mess with a little computer gaming. Which puts me in front of the computer even longer. This rest would keep your arm at a comfortable angle the whole time and prevent you from holding your arm at any bad angles.

by Paul Miller, posted Jul 13th 2008 at 3:45AM var Word on the street was that the $299 price slash we’ve been hearing about wasn’t about carving out a new pricepoint but instead making room for a new 60GB Xbox 360 in its place. Turns out the Mr. Word on the Street nailed this one, with Microsoft finally fessing up to the price drop, and announcing a new fancy 60GB Xbox 360 to fill in at that $349 pricepoint, which will be available in “early August.” You can pick up a 20GB “while supplies last,” but the $279 Arcade and $449 Elite aren’t budging price wise. Oh, and can we just say that this couldn’t come at any better a time? We just had to delete August Rush to make room for National Treasure 2, which we’ll probably (Read the full post about ‘Xbox 360 goes 60GB, 20 gigger going for $299 while supplies last’…)

I can remember when I used to live at home with my parents in high school. I was blessed to be one of those people who could fall asleep easily. Unfortunately, I was cursed when it came to waking up. My mother would hear the alarm clock going off, but a lot of the time, it either took me several minutes to be awoken from the noise, or I wouldn’t wake up at all and she would have to come in there and jostle me around. The Screaming Meanie 220 is for people like me, the geeks who just can’t wake up! This cool looking alarm clock has three different volume settings on it. The lowest is 70 decibels which is like an average alarm clock. The medium level is bumped up to 95 decibels. (Read the full post about ‘Screaming Meanie 220 Alarm Clock’…)

Samsung’s never a company to shy away from a challenge like that, and sure enough, details are emerging on a so-called i8510 smartphone that features S60 3rd Edition Feature Pack 1, 7.2Mbps HSDPA, FM radio, GPS, WiFi, and a whopping 16GB of internal storage — not to mention a microSD slot that can take you up to 24GB. Oh, and there’s the little matter of that camera, which features an dual LED flash and 120fps video capture at QVGA resolution.

by Richard Lawler, posted Jul 12th 2008 at 10:08PM Looks like Movie Gallery finally got something for the assortment of PBS bandwidth and spare parts remaining from the now-defunct MovieBeam service. The new owner is Indian conglomerate The Valuable Group, headed by Sanjay Gaikwad who apparently thinks serving up a remarkably limited assortment of heavily compressed HD and SD movies on demand is an idea that deserves to fail all over the world, instead of just in the U.S. Since $100 million burned up by Disney and others wasn’t enough to make things work, he plans to invest a similar amount over the next two years to relaunch the service in North America, the U.K. and “other overseas markets”.

Move over, Elon Musk — the Tesla owners club is about to get bigger. The upstart electric-car company announced the delivery of the first nine production Roadsters to customers in California earlier this week, with several more to follow at the rate of four per week, and the plan is to start building 100 a month by December, when that new transmission is ready. That’s pretty ambitious, but Tesla’s brought in some big guns to help make it happen — the company just hired Mike Donoughe as EVP of Vehicle Engineering and Manufacturing. Donoughe is fresh off a 24-year stint at Chrysler, where he was most recently in charge of revamping all of the company’s mid-size sedans.
