Promo Box for Nokia 6205 Dark Knight Edition Is Cooler Than Phone Itself
7:42AM Benny Goldman | Nokia just sent us the 6205 Dark Knight phone in a promotional box and man, is it cool. The box, that is. As you can see in the clip above, the purple box with pretty green bow on top surprised the hell out of me when I opened it–it cackled in the Joker’s voice. The box is also packed with a DVD of Batman Begins and a creepy Joker card that has the scribbles of a madman all over it. Way to go with the box, Nokia…now where’s the psycho purple 6205 Joker Edition to go with it? [Verizon Wireless] More »

Asus Eee Box B202: Our First Look, Plus Official Specs (Only US$300)
1:17AM Matt Buchanan | The other toy Asus brought for us to look at is their upcoming Eee Box, which will launch mid-July in the US. Running on a 1.6GHz Atom processor, it comes in Windows XP and Linux versions, both of which are blissfully cheap: US$269 for the base 1GB RAM, 80GB storage Linux model, $299 for XP. Memory and storage are configurable, running from 512MB to 2GB, and 80GB to 250GB, respectively. 802.11n is standard, and it has a pleasant number of ports—serious potential as a TV streamer box (as commenters have pointed out, lack of optical drive and HDMI out is definitely limiting here). We didn’t get to see it in action, but it’s definitely a cute, well-built package for the money. All the dirty details below.

Blockbuster’s Box Is Hot Competition for Netflix
10:10AM Mark Wilson | Can Blockbuster compete with the new Netflix Player? Their first attempt at a box of their own (seen here) looks like it might fall a little short when it comes to streaming movies and TV shows on demand. But it absolutely dominates the competition in the areas of fast food pizza delivery. Different strokes, I guess. [Silicon Alley Insider] More »
