HP recently promised a release of the iPad killer the HP Slate powered by Microsoft and was promised to hit the market by late June/early July... well as you know, that did not happen. But now HP is saying that they have confirmed a webOS of HP's Slate coming 1st quarter of 2011, will this be powered by Microsoft? Maybe not, HP is now considering the Palm OS for the once great slate. Will the Slate hit the market? BSN will keep you updated with the overpromised and under delivered HP news. | 8/20/2010 12:16 AM | Brandon Bernicky | BSN exclusive | |  | | Brandon Bernicky | | I am the guy who informs the public of news. |

You know what that means? iPhone 4 could hit Verizon, and shortly after the release of Windows Phone 7, so will it matter? Will the antenna still suck, yes. Will the Verizon bandwidth be sucked down, yes as well. Two things to consider before dropping everything to get it. Two steps from going to Verizon and Apple looks like they will seal the deal, Verizon may get the iPhone 4 in January but remember Verizon Wireless is notorious for getting something and not releasing it until 3months after getting it. | 8/11/2010 11:20 PM | Brandon Bernicky | Engadget; BSN exclusive | Verizon gets the Palm Pre- in other news we are all going to die. | | | Brandon Bernicky | | I am the guy who informs the public of news. |

Wait one min. California is bankrupt, why are they spending more? Well anyway In San Francisco you may notice
something new if you drive a car and parallel park on the side of the street. The parking meters (powered by SFpark) take change like any other parking meters. Oh and they take credit cards, or debit cards too. If that sounds cool you haven’t heard anything yet, there is also sensors on the streets in the linked parking meters to charge more for parking if the areas busy (aka supply and demand) that means the parking meter could cost you between one quarter an hour to 6 bucks an hour. But that’s not all it does what the sensors, it also tells drivers by Phone, web, or text where they can park in advanced, to help the 1/3 traffic of driving in circles (Man Washington DC needs that). I don’t know about you but I like that better than $3.00 an hour from 9am to 3pm.

Zynga can’t get enough. You would think after having the biggest game on Facebook they would stop, but they have now moved to the mobile market. On June 25th Zynga released Farmville for iPhone/iPad/iPod touch. This app lets you access the same Facebook farm on your phone. So no more bringing your laptop to the mall so you can stop in JCPenny and sit down to harvest your crops because now you can do it where you won’t look like as much of an idiot. The app is free and is currently the number four app in the Apple Marketplace. | 7/6/2010 6:14 PM | Brandon Bernicky | BSN exclusive; Other | Nintendo incorporates 3D, the new 3DS | | | Brandon Bernicky | | I am the guy who informs the public of news. |

Just when you thought the DS couldn’t be upgraded again, here comes the Nintendo 3DS, the first 3D portable gaming system that yes is still touch screen, Nintendo is back in the portable gaming race, and they are sure winning. One thing bad about it is the top screen is 3D and the bottom is not. That would sure be hard for people who get motion sickness easy. No word yet when this cool idea will come out.

| | 6/29/2010 11:24 PM | There are a few main differences that make Google Chrome and Internet Explorer different, such as Google Chrome has a strong multiprocess architecture, and Internet Explorer has Accelerators. Google Chrome also supports HTML5 while the current version of Internet Explorer does not. Internet Explorer however works flawlessly with SharePoint, while Google Chrome does not. The similarities are slim, but the differences are strong. What seems like such a small tool to surf websites like Facebook and MySpace, are in fact tremendously important to the reliability of your productivity and performance.
First, one of the main differences between Google Chrome and Internet Explorer is Chrome’s multiprocess architecture which was pointed out by PC World is one of the most significant differences between the browsers. Google Chrome has the best multiprocess architecture which keeps it from crashing as much as competing browsers. Internet Explorer’s multiprocess architecture is not as stable therefore not being as reliable for bulky websites.
In the workplace Internet Explorer excels because of its flawless support with SharePoint 2007, which Google lacks because of its lack of Office integration. Google Chrome does offer HTML5 support which is a new native support with websites that Internet Explorer cannot handle.
Those are the main differences between Google Chrome and Internet Explorer. Both great browsers, but in their own ways. | 6/29/2010 11:24 PM | Brandon Bernicky | BSN exclusive | RT Google in phishing attack | | | Brandon Bernicky | | I am the guy who informs the public of news. |

iPhone 4 is a great gadget, we can’t cover it all, but we can try right? The iPhone has one setback though, it’s on ATT, America’s chickenpox network, but if you put aside the crap carrier you will find this phone is amazing. First feature, Facetime positive, one of the first phones to fully intragrate face calling, negative, only works with Wi-Fi, making the feature useless. Next up to the plate, 5mp camera, positive 720p camera in back and front, negative Droid and Windows Phone 7 as well as Kin have an 8 MP camera. Also you now have the ability to multitask on its more durable hardware. Won’t the battery die, nope. The iPhone 4 also has a bigger battery. There’s so much more that the iPhone does that we cannot fit in here, so for more information go to www.apple.com/iphone.

Alright guys let’s run down some of the programs that PC Magazine said was the best of the best, here’s our review on these programs.
1. Wikipedia Companion
Okay this program looks pretty cool if you use Wikipedia, you can’t use it if you’re at a school because well, schools don’t trust Wikipedia. Wikipedia Companion opens your search term in a new frame/tab though making your searching easy and fun. Download the add-on here: http://download.cnet.com/Wikipedia-Companion-Mini-Wiki-Browser/3000-2378_4-75005205.html
2. Sepia Town
Sepia Town does one thing; it takes thousands of vintage photos and matches them up with their modern day location, why would you want that? Well if you were doing a research paper about a very very very small town in the 1890's and you needed to provide pictures this would be good for you.
Visit Sepia Town here: http://www.sepiatown.com/
PC magazine left us hanging at 2 so being amazing BSN will put in some of our own, 2 more in fact.
3. Dream Scene for Windows 7
If you had Windows Vista Ultimate you know what I’m talking about, the best program on earth right? This program was used in Vista to make your desktop animate using a video file, an AVI in fact. Do you miss it? I do, but not anymore, you can download it now FROM BSN's download center today, because we were going to link it to the original sites download page, but it makes you wait 60 seconds. Here at BSN we don’t want you waiting 60 seconds to DOWNLOAD, no, we want you to DOWNLOAD it in 60 seconds. Here’s the link for 64bit only (note I could not get this working, it works about 60% of the time with Windows 7 computers, why not give it a try) http://tinyurl.com/BSNwindows7-1
To install follow My Digital Life's instructions:
For 64-bit Windows Dream Scene: Unpack the DreamScene_Win7_x64.zip archive, then copy DreamScene.dll to %WinDir%\System32
\, DreamScene.dll.mui to %WinDir%\System32\en-US\. Run Dscene.reg to install the required registry keys and values. Restart Explorer or reboot to complete the installation.
A Windows Dream Scene folder has also been created in %WinDir%\Web\ folder. You can place any video file that you want to set as Dream Scene background wallpaper here as in Windows Vista, or anywhere you like. However, the folder is less useful as Windows 7 does not support direct viewing of video or animated media in Personalization Control Panel.
Windows 7 Dream Scene Usage Guide
To apply a video clip (in .WMV or .MPG format) as the Dream Scene animated wallpaper desktop background, right click on the video media file, and select Set as Desktop Background in the context menu. Due to Dream Scene been stripped from Windows 7 issue, video files may not be visible inside Personalization and Desktop Background configuration page. However, all features of Dream Scene, such as Play Dream Scene, Pause Dream Scene and sound/audio are supported.
4. How to Tweet the best
Allot of people want to Tweet the best right? Well here’s the answer to the best Tweet program for Windows/Mac and iPod.

Alright NPD apparently had a smartphone report wich made Apple even more big headed heres what John Paczkowski had to say:
"This is a very limited report on 150,000 US consumers responding to an online survey and does not account for the more than 85 million iPhone and iPod touch customers worldwide. IDC figures show that iPhone has 16.1 percent of the smartphone market and growing, far outselling Android on a worldwide basis. We had a record quarter with iPhone sales growing by 131 percent and with our new iPhone OS 4.0 software coming this summer, we see no signs of the competition catching up anytime soon."

Dont get your hopes up though, becuase knowing Verizon, once they announce it then you gotta wait 10 years. My question is why would you want to be happy about this? If your a Verizon costmer and Verizon gets the iPhone, bandwith on the Verizon network goes poof!

Hey guys, I’ve been doing some research for the new Kin phone by Microsoft that’s coming out in May, and I can only recommend this phone for one group of people teens, but not technically informed teens, but just teens. This phone is rumored to be upgradeable to Windows Phone 7 but knowing Verizon if it even can be upgraded from its uber simple os it won’t be the day the os comes out. The OS may be bad for a Windows Phone user that has used past Windows Mobile Os's but its design is great! The Kin 2 has stereo speakers, 8GB of storage for its Zune intergraded media player and a beautiful 8megapixle camera, not to mention its HD! In a phone! It also has a slide out keyboard with spaced out keys witch is not the best for typing. So guys I know your antsy for Windows Phone 7, but just wait until the Holidays this year when Microsoft unveils Windows Phone 7. | 4/17/2010 7:42 PM | Brandon Bernicky | BSN exclusive; Other | HTC HD2 | | | Brandon Bernicky | | I am the guy who informs the public of news. |

So Blockbuster is trying to put these in their stores to get more people to come by setting up these posts where you can get a movie on your SD card. Cool idea but wait 10 years on that Blockbuster. | 11/11/2009 3:29 PM | Brandon Bernicky | Engadget; Other | | | | Brandon Bernicky | | I am the guy who informs the public of news. |

Okay So if your shocked by this title still be shocked, but if you think that this is just a way to read this post and view this website, your wrong. Simon Aldous recently said this, "One of the things that people say an awful lot about the Apple Mac is that the OS is fantastic, that it's very graphical and easy to use. What we've tried to do with Windows 7 – whether it's traditional format or in a touch format – is create a Mac look and feel in terms of graphics." wow, thats a fail Microsoft. I am a Microsoft fanboy but this is low. I do see in windows 7 a connection to Apples OS, but really, copycats? You choose. Hey but at least Apple Fanboys cant rip on the look of Windows, because they would be a hipocrate. I do think though the Windows interface is better than the plain simple Mac one. Hey but thats your choise, I bring you the facts you read! | 11/11/2009 3:25 PM | Brandon Bernicky | Engadget; BSN exclusive; Other | Windows 7 futureistic, Windows mobile 6.5 HOLY CRAP, Project Natal (I just peed myself) | | | Brandon Bernicky | | I am the guy who informs the public of news. |

Alright either click on the link above or follow these instructions below
Here is what the maker of this rom said: Disclaimer - This rom worked on my Omnia. If it bricks yours, it is not my responsibility to buy you a new omnia, or call samsung to have them send a new one to you.
also
This is beta rom of a beta OS. It seems pretty stable for me, but if you miss your important business call, it again, is not my fault.
ALSO THIS APPLYS WITH BSN AS WELL!!!
Okay done with that lets get to the rom!
WoZZeRs WM6.5 Cooked Rom
First of all, this is a rom I am making for myself and sharing with the public, so if I have removed something you want, then find one of the Omnia cab repositories and install it as a cab.
Secondly, I don't *owe* you anything to put in the rom, (or fix if it's beyond my control). With the .img that was leaked, I don't know how to extract the Customer_CSC, but if someone wants to help me, I could get a lot more done.
I recommend that you have flashed with the new ROM (the link is in the New Rom thread for the i910), and after the *228, and all that jazz, it's safe to update with my ROM.
To go over some of the changes I have done,
Things Removed (applies to M2D and Lite ROM):
VZNav and VZAppZone
Samsung Today and Today 2
Samsung Widgets *1
Non-English Keyboards
All ringtones and backgrounds (except the default VZW ringtone and mountain background)
Digital Frame
Business Card Reader
Dice
Connected Home
FMRadio
'Main Menu'
Movie Video Editor
RSS Reader
Shozu
Silver Inbox
Smart Converter
Smart Memo
Touch Player
Text Message retry
Zoomer
A few more odds and ends, mostly cleaning out left over stuff
Things added:
M2D Update 21 (In one of the releases)
Google Maps
Official Youtube player
WM 6.5 Facebook App
Java
Advanced Config
SD Tuneup (better response from SD cards)
Total Commander
TCPMP0.81
Various start up tweaks
Link to SMPlayer *4
-New in v.02-
Sectors All in One
Fixes:
Post #2 has the changelog
How to flash:
It is confirmed that you must first flash with the CC20 leaked image first. Some googling may help you.
Follow instructions here first! (for first cooked flash only)
Run UDML_Omnia
Click PDA
Find the extracted file from the rar you downloaded
Hit Detect
Restart Phone
Once the phone has completely booted, click ok on the mortscript pop-up, then click the windows icon. Wait a minute and give it another soft-reset
Here are the links to the files:
There will be 4 ROMS in this release. A Lite, which is basically a core wm6.5, M2D has... you guess it, M2D. 'Stock' with almost nothing removed (some customer.csc issues still present).
I will be adding a 'Naked' Build. It is the 'Lite' Rom without all of the extra added programs. Some of the programs are missing. You may get file association errors, all you have to do is install a program that plays those files. Other stuff may be broken too.
To get M2D working, you must disable "windows default" and enable "TouchFLO".
I'll update the images tomorrow
Stock: Here
M2D: Here
Lite: Here
Naked: Here
Files will be posted to Omniarom.com later.
If I deleted a program that you use on a regular basis, Shokka9 has some of the original programs. These are from the i900, but there is no reason they shouldn't work with the i910.
*1 - This is part of the Customer_CSC, so I'm having trouble getting it to work for people who want it. I recommend FEWidgets if you want the same functionality.
*2 - For refrence, the non-M2D one should have about 15 megs of more of free space after a hard reset.
*3 - I have attached a SMPlayer with the remaining codecs that are not included in the windows folder. You shouldn't need this unless you want to use the touch player.
I do this because I love helping people, but if you want: Donate This post has been edited by WoZZeR999: May 31 2009, 02:06

Well here it is. Windows Mobile 6.5 HTC HD2! The only real big differnece here is windows mobile 6.5. This OS is compareible to the iPhone os. Witch is better?

Okay so not much to report here, mostly because the picture describes itself. This bike's wheels are designed as training wheels too, so you can have a kid ride a bike without training wheels, this will give the child confidence in riding a real bike, but then what happens when he moves to normal wheels and he falls every time he gets on the bike. Gyrobike's Gyrowheel will go on sale JUST IN TIME for the CHRISTMAS season, so keep your eyes open if you want to waste your money on wheels! | 10/4/2009 11:02 AM | Brandon Bernicky | Engadget | You can digg us! | | | Brandon Bernicky | | I am the guy who informs the public of news. |

| | 7/27/2009 11:09 PM | Hey guys Brandon Bernicky here with this latest headline, but first I have an announcement, we almost made a deal with PwnagePickle or (PP) to be unbiased and be ONE huge Tech\gaming site... thankfully that didnt happen so what are we going to be? BIASED!!!! Yes so now you WILL know what phoone and computer to buy to be at the top of the PCloving world! So lets get to our headline shall we? Verizon Gets the Palm Pre... ugh, first of all when you hear Verizon's going to get it, I would say around a half year to 3 years untill they get it, yes Verizon takes a LONG time to get stuff! Like for example the Omnia ROM update was relesed in Janurary and didnt get relesed to the public untill July... for no good reason, but back to the pre, so what should you do? Well here is what I will tell you, DONT it will not be as good as they say it is. It is Linux based software (bad) and has nearly not as many apps as a wm phone. So if your looking for a phone and you want to get an iPhone Killer, the Palm Pre is NOT for you, insted go for the Samsung Omnia, I have it and love it! Thats that sad headline... | 7/27/2009 11:09 PM | Brandon Bernicky | Engadget; BSN exclusive | At&T's slowest 3G network's iPhone 3G S Preorder has sold out already!

Remember in my last tech time post where I showed all the features in the Apple iPhone 3G S and then futher before I showed you the Palm Pre? Well people that were so in love with apple dropped unnessisary money on the iPhone 3G S, and in fact so many that the Preorder has sold out. That means no camping out in frout of Apple! Well that's probabily all the crap we will report on that, BSN rating Apple iPhone VS Palm Pre, what do we think, because our competitor says that they are not biased, but here at BSN we will give you all the information and then give you what we think about it so your not left clueless when buying a phone, but if you where to choose from an Apple iPhone or a Plam Pre, what we would reccomend is the Palm Pre. | 6/13/2009 10:57 PM | Brandon Bernicky | Engadget; Other | The sleek sexy Palm Pre, what do WE think? | | | Brandon Bernicky | | I am the guy who informs the public of news. |

| | 6/9/2009 11:11 AM |  As much as we here at BSN dont like Apple, and the Apple iPhone we must report on what happened at the annual confrence. Apple finally noticing how much money people really have has made their confrence more about pinched wallets. Apple slashed the price of the iPhone to about half its price and unvailed somthing new in the line if iPhone. Too bad co-founder and Cheif executive Mr Apple him self Steve Jobbs not well enough to come missed the unvailing of the iPhone 3G S. It looks the exzact same yet it has a faster prossesser and it has a longer battery life with an internal compass, and video camra, finally with a new upgraded os with more than 100 new features, sounds pretty shiny and good and like the "Jesus phone" huh, well its not all that its cracked up to be, remember it an Apple Confrence by APPLE to tell you about the APPLE iPhone, they are going to make it sound a lot better than it really is! On June 19th Apple will start selling the two versions of the new phone, one 16GB and another 32GB for about $199 with a contract $299 if your contract is still valad.
What does the iPhone have to offer???
A new model
The 8GB
And a new OS, witch seems to be new every year? Why Windows mobile is great and it comes out around the time a new Windows OS comes out, so ask your self why apple keeps updating? | 6/9/2009 11:11 AM | Brandon Bernicky | Other | The sleek sexy Palm Pre, what do WE think? | | | Brandon Bernicky | | I am the guy who informs the public of news. |

So the Wii comes out with the motion controllers witch is the biggest thing and everybody "had" to have one. Thats why the Wii's were always out of stock while Playstations were always in stock on the shelves, well not for long. At E3 yet again Sony releases the Playstation 3's motion controller! This prototype has blown away the Wii's motion controller! Now how does it get the signal? Well using the Playstation eye it picks up the signal, now it would be nice if it was just Bluetooth and you didnt have to buy that and an eye
What does the motion controller look like? Well it looks pretty much like a wand with a color changing ball on the top. Sony says it'll launch in the spring of 2010, but we don't know what pricing will be like yet.

Activision made this new "hero" and at the moment would not let anybody mess around with it, so pretty much nobody got a hands on with it. The turntable rotates a smooth 360 degrees, and each of the three disc-based buttons have a well-defined texture and provide needed traction. When will YOU be able to buy it, well when we get the information we will give it to you.

Well what you are looking at right there is the Palm Pre, what are some specs and what do we think about it, well before we share are opinions We'll give you the information.
So there is your information now accoording to Engadget this phone has Linux based software and by the sound of that I am already pooping my pance thinking wait, it this yet another unsucessful stab at the better iPhone, also in my opinion if you want this phone first look at the Samsung Omina from Verison, I Brandon Bernicky have it and I LOVE it, you can also on the Palm Pre, Samsung Omnia, iPhone and any other internet enabled phone, game system, mp3 player can view all of BSN's news Mobilely at www.bbstudios.tv/m!! | 6/3/2009 10:59 PM | Brandon Bernicky | Engadget; BSN ecsuive | Microsofts first iPhone app?

| | 5/19/2009 3:54 PM | Yes BSN uses a program free called mogulus and today WE were even surprised on what happened. So now the name of mogulus is called Livestream. you can still access it by www.mogulus.com and you can also get to it by www.livestream.com. Why would they do that? Well CEO and co-founder Max Haot said that it would better reflect what Mogulus (now Livestream) is doing. Like how YouTube is called YouTube because you can post your on-demand videos. He also thinks that if he changes the name it will be better for the company. from my standpoint, and I have used it for a long time, since week 1 I think they should have kept the Mogulus name, or at least warned us on the Homepage, I looked and I cannot even find any info about it anywhere on there site! | 5/19/2009 3:54 PM | Brandon Bernicky | BSN ecsuive | | | | Brandon Bernicky | | I am the guy who informs the public of news. |

And the winner is IntuApps, which has Swine Flu Tracker, waiting for approval from Apple, before it's released into the App Store. IntuApps' Barry Schwartz, who is also a blogger, sent along some screenshots of the app. In it, you can see the current Threat Level for the disease, a map showing confirmed and suspected cases, a symptoms area to inform people, and an alert page for breaking news on Swine Flu.
Everyone is joking about Swine Flu because of the whole pig angle, but it is at least somewhat of a serious threat. And while this iPhone app may be the latest thing to capitalize on it, it's also pretty useful as a way to know what areas to avoid on the go. It's good to know that IntuApps will be giving the app away for free when it is available in the App Store.

15.6-inch LED-backlit display, which packs a native 1366 x 768 resolution, and gets paired with some upgraded ATI Mobility Radeon HD4570 graphics (available with 256MB or 512MB of on-board memory). Otherwise, you can expect the usual range of Core 2 Duo processors, a built-in 2 megapixel webcam, HDMI out, an optional Blu-ray drive, an optional backlit keyboard, and your choice of six colors, including the snazzy Black Chainlink design pictured above. This will make Dell the second to make their laptops with blu-ray! Obviously Sony was first.

The worlds most accrute clock and not the smallest clock just got even smaller. (I know how the heck did they do that). Well in NIST Boulder, Colorado the atomic clocks (foutin clocks) send out clouds of caesium atoms through a vacuum chamber in a magnetic field. I know a little confusing! Later Microwaves in the chamber, emit light as they drop to a lower hyperfine state. Well I guess thats how they make the atomic clock smaller!

Okay so the news, researchers at the University of Illinois say that they made the smallest working fuel cell. The strange thing is, they may they may be right! The small wondrous object is 3 mm x 3 mm x 1 mm... Pretty small battery! It is 4 layers inside it too! The small fuel cell can produce .7 volts for around 30 hours! All they need is to fit 4-5 volts in there and people could go months without recharging their laptops! Well that’s that!

Yes I know what you are thinking that this is old and not ''new news'' but people still buy the VAIO® UX Premium Micro PC and its cheap and small rather than the Vaio P. So let’s get on with the review on the VAIO® UX Premium Micro PC!
The VAIO® UX Premium Micro PC is an ''A full-functioning PC in your pocket. This VAIO® UX premium micro PC lets you do it all from the palm of your hand and includes wireless connectivity for communication without limits.'' As www.sony.com says, but remember they are trying to make you buy this so before reading other reviews read my review on the VAIO® UX Premium Micro PC. I think it is a real neat small futuristic computer, and I am a HUGE Sony fan boy just as a side note. When I saw this the first thing I thought was slow and hard to use. When I say hard to use I mean hard to get the keys pressed and that stuff. When I used it at the Sony store I remembered it being very well fit in my hand but I would never ever get rid of my Vaio sz-3819 for that because my laptops a laptop size and if you want a laptop the VAIO® UX Premium Micro PC is not for you! On the other hand if you want only minor computing and ultra portability the VAIO® UX Premium Micro PC is right for you! So this model really depends on what kind of computer person you are, but I Brandon Bernicky does not recommend this product.

Now I know what you are all thinking… Brandon Bernicky is a PC fan boy… now what’s he going to say about the Mac. But don’t worry on www.bbsudios.tv we report headline news… witch this is! So whether we like it or not we have to report it! But I swear this is the only time I will say something bad about the Mac and this is the only time in this post, ok? But this Website bbsudios.tv does not work 100% with Safari… but it does on IE6, IE7, and my favorite IE8 BETA!
So that’s the via update screen! And just so you guys know this is a HUGE Apple update, and here is, the update is 377MB… So I must have been on my PC to long because 377MB update would be huge on DOS! But I am not fond of Mac World so I guess in Mac World it’s huge I guess! Mac OS X 10.5.6 is now ready for download via update. Updates today… come on DO IT!
Also we found a chart of what this update has on www.engadget.com so take a look!
Apple has posted the official changelog. Here are the highlights:
· Improves the reliability of AirPort connections, including improvements when roaming in large wireless networks with an Intel-based Mac.
· Improves reliability of Address Book syncing with iPhone and other devices and applications.
· Includes general improvements to gaming performance.
· Includes fixes for possible graphics distortion issues with certain ATI graphics cards.
· Contacts, calendars, and bookmarks on a Mac automatically sync within a minute of the change being made on the computer, another device, or the web at me.com.
· Improves Apple File Service performance, especially when using a home directory hosted on an AFP server.
· Improves reliability and performance for AT&T 3G cards.
· Improves printing for USB-based Brother and Canon printers.
· Fixes issues that could cause Time Machine to state the backup volume could not be found.
· Improves Time Machine reliability with Time Capsule.
· Adds a Trackpad System Preference pane for portable Macs.
· Personal Engadget favorite: Improves the performance and reliability of Chess.

Yes it is true after a while Microsoft finally joined the iphone develpment community with Seadragon Mobile. Its free and lets you "infinite zoom" gigapixel-sized images. Seadragon is avaible on the PC and is a silverlight app. Saddly Microsoft will not introduce Silverlight to the belovid iPhone.

There's something about fire-breathing robots that just gets us giddy, so you can imagine our joy when finding one that gallops, too. The hand-built robot dog -- cutely coined LRRY-1 (pronounced Larry, we'll have you know) -- was built almost entirely from unwanted Citroën scraps, and not a single ounce of non-recycled material was used in the final construction. No idea if it's technically street legal, but we'd love to see a traffic warden try to get this thing back in its cage. Video is posted after the break.

We love nothing better than a good blurry photo around here to add a little dose of vague confusion to the rumor mill. These two artistically hazy snaps are purported to be of a US-bound T-Mobile Samsung Behold-style phone with an 8-megapixel camera. Tmo News is also reporting that it's going to run on Touchwiz, the same UI as the Behold, and that it's called the Memoir. We don't have any other details for now, but we'll let you know as soon as we see a fuzzy scan of a semi-redacted press release

Here we go again. It seems like just yesterday we heard the first whispers of a Google desktop OS, and products like Chrome stoke suspicions that the Mountain View-based company is setting itself up to invade the PC. Although Google insists that it's focusing on the cloud, since Android was announced, the feasibility of a Google-branded desktop OS has certainly increased. Now, market research firm Net Applications is reporting that it has seen a third of the traffic from Google's employees with intentionally blocked identification strings. This could be a real indicator that the big G is hard at work on a desktop OS -- or just a sign that folks at Google don't care to share their OS of choice. Hopefully, we'll be hearing more sooner rather than later, but feel free to chime in with your Google global domination theories and rabid speculation in the comments.

It looks like Microsoft's trying to reel in shoppers not only through price cuts this holiday season, but by introducing some new colors as well. The folks up in Redmond have just made blue and red versions of the socializing little PMP available on its Zune Originals site. Prices start at $249, and the company suggests placing orders by the 19th to ensure delivery by Christmas Eve. Sure, It may not be a Gears of War 2 special-edition, but it's definitely an alternative to black. So if you've been looking for something to give that special someone -- and nothing on our guide matches your style -- be sure to hit Microsoft's site to check out all your options. | 12/7/2008 4:33 PM | Brandon Bernicky | | | | |

 according to our refrences over at Engadget Spanish, ran some pics of a new Dell laptop a short while back, and now the company itself has leaked some stats and info on its support site. Apparently, the device -- dubbed the Inspiron 1545 -- will boast a 15.6-inch widescreen, a Core 2 Duo processor (max 2.53GHz), up to 4GB memory and will ship with either Vista or Ubuntu. There's more to it than that, of course -- hit the read link for some docs and make sure you check out the gallery for more info.

We knew this day would eventually come, but somehow we're still misting up a little -- Linux has been ported to the iPhone and iPod touch. Dev Team member planetbeing is the mastermind in charge of bringing everyone's favorite open-source OS to Apple's handhelds, and while it's a little rough around the edges (read: no touchscreen drivers, sound, or WiFi / cell radio support), it's definitely the first step on the road to hacking nirvana. The team is hard at work, and it even sounds like they're thinking about porting Android in the near future (!), so hit the read link to try it out and lend a hand if you can -- or just head on past the break for a quick vid of the port in all its text-scrolling glory.

PS3, Wii users get Psyclone TouchCharge pads, too
We caught sight of Psyclone's WildCharger-based TouchCharge kit for the Xbox 360 a few weeks ago but, in case you missed it, the company is also offering similar kits for the PlayStation 3 and Wii. At $49.99 the PS3 version is actually the cheapest of the lot, due to the fact that it's able to use the controller's own rechargeable battery, while the $59.99 Wii version and $69.99 Xbox 360 version each include some rechargeable batteries of their own courtesy of Psyclone. The charging pads themselves are, of course, interchangeable, and you can even charge more than one device on a single pad, although finding the necessary controller adapters separately seems to be another matter.
