Microsoft have created a great little mouse that folds up for easy storage while travelling around and then opens up to a larger more familiar size when needed. The mouse is wireless and is named the Arc Mouse.
I like the thinking behind this mouse as I once purchased a laptop mouse that was tiny in size. The idea behind a tiny mouse was great, but after a couple of hours of usage I quickly went back to the touchpad on my laptop. Maybe a fold up mouse might be the Read more… »

This concept from designer Kong Fanwen lies somewhere between minimalist Apple keyboards, and projecting laser touch ones. The No-Key is very simple: just a light source, a camera and an etched sheet of glass, showing the key positions. You just type, the cam sees your contact with the glass and sends appropriate commands to your PC. And one image suggests it’d be waterproof, so… blogging from the bath? I want one please!

The Myka is what many Torrent fans have been waiting for—a device that makes it easy to download torrents and play them on your living room TV. You can connect to the internet via LAN or WiFi, it has HDMI, Composite, S-Video and SPDIF ports (nice), your choice of 80, 160 or 500 gigabytes (and USB expansion) and the Linux OS with pre-installed BitTorrent software. You can even transfer videos directly from your computer. Read more… »

TI’s TV Wonder 650 TV tuners have been out for PCs for a bit, but a Mac version of the Combo USB variety’s arriving just this month for $149, and it comes in a special white case—guess they didn’t get the memo silver’s the new white. It’s also sporting a polished new interface and parental controls, though spec-wise it appears to be the same as before (OTA Analog and HD, Clear-QAM, etc.), making it a pretty decent solution for a Mac mini HD PVR setup.

I have to admit that these unique face plates for the XBox 360 look great. Each of them are hand crafted and fit right on the front of your 360. Only a limited amount (36) will be made and the treasure island one above will set you back $120. The Molten Stone version is not for sale (pictured below). Although I probably would not spend $120 on a face plate for an XBox I have to admit that these versions do look quite amazing. The only reason I wouldn’t spend $120 is because I am not too fussed about any front plate for an XBox. Read more… »
