Laptop Mag have gotten their hands on an interesting eBook reader called the Entourage Edge. They find it strange though. It's the same size and form factor as a netbook, but it's actually two screens: one e-ink screen and the other a normal LCD screen. It's too big to be an eBook reader, they felt, but they do appreciate the effort to make such an unconventional product. Upon opening the Edge, the first thing we noticed is the hinge that allows for a complete 180-degree range of motion for both of the dualbook’s displays. Users can fold them back to back and use just one display at a time, lay the device ...

Powermat is a "revolutionary" wireless charging system that might actually become the hottest gadget this year. You see, Powermat actually does away with the tangled mess of wires you have to deal wit everyday for your camera, iPod, iPhone, Blackberry, PSP, and others. Instead you get an oversized charging mat that you can put your devices on. Yes, putting your devices on the Powermat actually charges them. It's no over-the-air charger, but we look like we're getting there. Powermats can handle up to three devices at a time, which I find disappointing, although I don't see myself charging five devices at the same time. I believe that we can see ...

For a while, the Sony Dash is actually kind of a glorified widget machine. Kind of like an iPad, but imagine that it doesn't have the office suite function, or anything else that makes the iPad so great. The Dash Internet Viewer is a touchscreen WiFi device which can be propped up like a digital photo frame. Oh yeah, it's not portable. So you just have to prop it around your home. It runs Chumby OS, which lets the 7-inch device can run Chumby apps (there are over 1,000 free ones out there already), to which Sony will be adding its own Sony Music and Sony Pictures ...

Does anybody here remember the Nokia N-gage? Not a lot of you, I'm sure. The N-Gage didn't really make much of a splash when it first came out, which is sad, because it was way ahead of its time. Back then people scoffed at a gaming phone. I did too. The hardware available back then wasn't really good for running games, and there wasn't really a bunch of games you can actually play on the N-Gage platform. Nokia's taking another shot at the mobile gaming market with the Ovi Orion. The Ovi Orion is still conceptual as of now, and in theory, it looks like a good gaming phone. According ...

sleep-suit-1 I'm guessing that burning five candles at both ends at the same time thing is doing wonders for your productivity and finances, but your sleeping habits have taken a major hit and - wait, what is a sleeping habit? So. You need to sleep. And you need to sleep now. In the middle of the park. Fashion, safety, and propriety be damned. What you need is the sleep suit. Wait, what? It is inspired by Buckminster Fuller’s practice of Dymaxion Sleeping, which involves four 30-minute naps over a period of 24 hours, and the material requirements for such conditions. Architecturally, the very close relationship between the human body and the suit acts ...

Capture I've rarely encountered this situation, but I'm sure a couple of you guys have. Let's say you were stuck in a place - it might be a desert, in the middle of the ocean, or even in your neighbor's barbecue party - and you need to make a call right away; it's a life and death situation. What can I say, your neighbor throws the most boring parties and you need to call somebody to rescue you. The thing is, your cellphone's batteries are just about to die and you don't have a charger with you. Heck, even if you had a charger you don't see a wall outlet and that ...

Skiff-Reader1-650x539 Yes, you read the title right: flexible. It's because when I want to read the online copy of let's say Neil Gaiman's Good Omens, I want to bend my reader like I do a real-life newspaper. Let's see the Kindle 2 do that. But kidding aside, the Skiff Reader looks like a great e-reader. Just a quick look at its specs would reveal an amazing 11.5″ screen with a resolution of 1200×1600 pixels! That resolution is big enough to display a full page of The New York Times on the screen. Also, that NYT page? It contains Skiff-only ads to keep them running. I hate seeing ads, actually, but ...

the-damned-bulletproof-handkerchief-21 For once, I'm going to stop posting about stuff I'm lusting for badly, and I'm going to write about something so laughable I just had to share this with you guys. This gadget (I don't even know if this is a gadget, but whatever) falls squarely under the "WTF is this category." Okay, so let's say you're a James Bond-esque secret agent off to a dangerous mission. You're wearing the obligatory three-piece suit and in the middle of a poker match whose outcome will decide the fate of the free world, your opponent (let's just assume that he bleeds out of his tearducts) brings out a gun and shoots you point-blank in ...

bt-keyboard Okay, one of the things I really, really hate about netbooks -especially the early ones- is that their keyboards are probably the worst things on them. Currently, the new ones have almost full-sized keyboards that'll more or less accommodate large touch-typing hands. Heh, with my Eee PC 701, I've been reduced to hunting and pecking for the correct keys. Don't even get me started on mobile phones and PDAs. Even QWERTY mobile phone keypads are a pain to use long-term. Nothing beats a 100% full-sized keyboard. Speaking of which, a new keyboard that just passed the FCC guidelines is making a minor buzz right now. Bluetooth keyboards aren't really something ...

wink-16gb1 If you really, really, really need to keep your data discrete up to the point that a normal-sized USB flash drive won't work for you, a company called Wink has announced that they've created the smallest 16GB thumb drive yet. As you can see from the picture, it's smaller than a dice. And don't you go doubting that this is possible. I've seen a 32GB drive that's a bit bigger than this one, so anything's possible. So if you're a spy seeking to sneak out really sensitive and hush-hush data, or if you just really like to keep things small, this is for you. Just don't lose it. Specifications The delicate electronics are encapsulated ...

The CrunchPad is dead. Now what?

It’s dead, Jim.

And now, news of the CrunchPad’s demise has reached the blogosphere (twice-over, I must say), we’re here to examine the post-mortem. It was an ambitious project: an internet tablet meant to sell cheap. Everybody was waiting for it with bated breath, but it never came.

Sony reveals PlayStation Move

I have to admit, my mind is officially blown. Sony finally revealed its new PlayStation 3 motion controller at GDC 2010 in San Francisco, and boy is it looking good.

Dubbed the Playstation Move, the advanced motion controls on this baby makes it supposedly more accurate than that other motion controller from that little-known console from [...]
