Xbox 360 Slim Could Be A Reality

Daniel Georges — Wed, 17 Mar 2010 10:12:44 +0000

That gigantic white box you have sitting in your lounge may finally be getting the upgrade it has deserved for a long time. By upgrade I mean downsize, to something a little bit easier to stomach. The picture you see before you might well be the mini motherboard for an upcoming Xbox 360 refresh.
I find it hard to believe that the GPU and CPU are now one (as you would assume from the image), but maybe Microsoft have worked some magic in that area. All we need to know now is if the red ring of death is now smaller and cuter to look at as you lose you temper, and if you will need to add another room to your house to accommodate the power brick.

Every Apple device eventually get Diamond encrusted so why not the iPad? Sure it is probably the cheapest device Apple has ever made, but can’t it be cheap and have ‘11.43 carats of diamonds’? Best 20 grand you will spend today!

NVidia GTX 480 Vs ATI 5870

Daniel Georges — Sat, 06 Mar 2010 13:38:15 +0000

If I was a betting man, I would have put all my cash on the GTX 480. Luckily I’m not a betting man.
NVidia have published an official video of its GTX 480 against ATI’s own heavy weight 5870. While the are results pretty even, it is a little disappointing the NVidia (which hasn’t been released as yet) didn’t bring home the punishment. Maybe with some real gaming benchmarks and some pricing we may get a better idea of NVidia’s plan is.

Nvidia 196.75 Could Mean Fiery Death

Daniel Georges — Fri, 05 Mar 2010 12:30:28 +0000

NVidia have recently pulled their 196.75 driver due to suspected issues. Apparently the driver is causing the GPU fan to work incorrectly therefore causing over heats.
If you are unfortunately enough to have already installed the driver roll back. If it is to late i’ve heard ATI’s graphics cards are pretty good these days.

Another Asus E-Reader That Isn’t Released

Daniel Georges — Tue, 02 Mar 2010 10:53:46 +0000

Asus seem to be one of the best companies at showing off interesting concepts, that then take forever to come to market. They start out with some fantastic idea (EeeKeyboard), then talk it up until you decide you need one in every room and push it back until it is obsolete by the time it hits the street.
This time it is the DR-900 (brother to the DR-950). Asus’s first 9-inch E-Reader which also comes with Wi-Fi, 3G and battery life good for 10,000 pages. Engadget also believes it will feature the same 1024 x 768 pixel Sipix panel as the DR-950, and also have support for such formats as PDF, TXT, MP3 and ePUB. Mix into that the possibility of it being a touch screen device with what appears to be a very sexy looking case and you have something lust-worthy.
Nothing is known about release date or price, but I’m hoping it will be sometime this year. Knowing Asus I wouldn’t get my hopes up.

Google Losing Search On Own OS?

Daniel Georges — Tue, 02 Mar 2010 10:39:26 +0000

Lately it seems a lot of people are attempting to bring down the juggernaut that is Google. Starting with Apples move to rid all things Google from the iPhone and then the recent push for antitrust lawsuits (that are possiblity coming from Microsoft). Now it seems Android, its very own OS, is kicking Google out for Yahoo.
It is only AT&T doing it at the moment, but how interesting it is. Spend millions to make an OS that is pretty much free, hoping and dreaming that one day you will make money from the services rendered on the device, and then someone comes along and strips those stinking services out.
This is AT&T’s first Android handset (Motorola Backflip), so after it is a gigantic flop, they may just realise that people only buy Android because of the included Google apps. Then, even if AT&T are too arrogant to do it, some enterprising hacker will re-add the Google goodness.

Palm’s WebOS Gets Flashy

Daniel Georges — Sat, 27 Feb 2010 09:16:32 +0000

We were all told it was coming, but who could believe it? After Apple being so confident that Flash wouldn’t be a good experience on a mobile device, it has happened anyway.
WebOS, the OS Palm’s Pre and Pixi uses, has Flash support as well as video recording capabilities. The official version is 1.4 and is currently be pushed out by Sprint,O2 and Movistar (all US I believe). I hope it is works great for you Palm, you could really use the luck bro.

Everyone Wants To Be An E-Reader

Daniel Georges — Thu, 25 Feb 2010 05:01:15 +0000

Nintendo is bringing E-Books to the lowest resolution 4.2 inch screen in the world. The device is the DSi XL with a resolution of 256 x 192. In other words, prepare for the worst migraines you could ever imagine.
The books in mention are classics (public domain I believe, so the authors are long dead) and will be released on the 14 June. I wouldn’t get to excited, because while Nintendo has a large followers of fanboys, they won’t be to happy when their eyes melt (in other words, don’t expect an Amazon partnership).
