So it turns out the rumors were true. Samsung’s two-faced phone, the music-playing Upstage, got a Ferrari-red paint job this morning.
The phone has a tiny LCD on one side (for making calls) and a bigger screen on its backside to show music info. Other features include Bluetooth 2.0 and access to Sprint’s music store. The phone is out today on Sprint. More »
Despite it’s annoying name, the N!ergy tent has good intentions. It comes with three 12V outlets that keep your gadgets juiced while you’re roughing it in the great outdoors. You’ll need the E! Power Pak (an extra $50) to power the tent, but once you’re up and running you can forgo the whole nature thing and listen to your iPod while playing with your DS (and still have room for 1 more gadget). The 8 person tent goes for $279. – Louis Ramirez
So, Lord Steve of Jobsworth carries his Lenovo in leather does he? Cough. I reckon he’s more likely to use this, the MacTruck case (not that I am saying that you are clumsy, your Lordship, oh no, I am waiting for a SF ballet company to debut Black Turtleneck, the story of Jobs told through the language of contemporary dance.)
Well, if I’m going to be completely honest, there are reasons for and reasons against why our favorite Occasional Beard (that’s what I love about Keynotes, it’s the Will He, Won’t He Have Used A Razor-ness of it all) might have a MacTruck rather than a Lenovo in a swanktastic embossed leather pochette.

There’s now a photo floating around that allegedly pictures Steve Jobs holding a special edition, leather-bound Lenovo ThinkPad Reserve. Why does this matter, I don’t know. But the thing is that some people believe is real and we are going to say it’s fake: it’s fake. There. Fake fake fake. Fake.
It is fake – not for obvious reasons, like “Steven P. Jobs” being in focus while the surface onto which it has been stamped is not – but because we actually have the real picture. Which shows that the image above has been retouched – intensely – after the jump. More »
NVIDIA has just released their new top of the line GeForce 8700M GT, just in time to remind you that no matter how cool your new MacBook Pro or Sony VAIO are, you are not the King of the Hill anymore.

Megatron, man. What happened to you? Before this Michael Bay movie, you had some balls. You used to turn into a giant gun, or a gun that Starscream could pick up and shoot those goody-two-shoes Autobots with. A giant gun so big that Dirty Harry would have splat like a bug on a 80mph windshield if he had to deal with the recoil. Some kind of crazy f’d up die-cast Decepticon Walther P-38. But no more. galleryPost('megatronwimp', 8, 'Megatronwimp');

Because bleeding Halo fanatics out of $130 for the Halo 3 Legendary Edition really only scratches the surface of their (parents’) bank accounts, GameStop is stepping up to collect the remaining lunch money with a line of “limited edition” Halo 3 gear that drops Sept. 4: a pair of Spartan and Covenant 360 controllers and a wireless headset with a “uniquely Halo look”.

A blog for everyone at SCEA to write on, from execs and down? This is a smart move for Sony. They can respond to rumors and break news here. And we can all comment and link to it. I mean, when is the last time you visited playstation.com? Check it out. – Brian Lam
Thanko’s usually known for their heating gadgets, but cooling’s just heating in reverse. In the case of this USB ass cooler 2007 edition, Thanko’s improved on the 2006 edition by making it black and, uh, we’re not sure what else.
Still no clue whether they solved that fart potential blowing up into your face problem though. – Jason Chen

This is something we didn’t expect. Unlike Optimus Prime, these Transformer gadgets and a crazy Hong Kong man, these transformers plushies don’t cut you up when you rub your face on them. If the cartoons in the ’80s taught us anything, it’s that robot aliens from another galaxy enjoy being used to prop up a woman’s ass during intercourse. – Jason Chen
