These cool cases fit both the 1st and 2nd generation Nano’s, and they are damn cool. There you go, all that needs to be said in one sentence. Yet, I’m way too talkative to only tell you that much.

Xilo strikes the metal tubes based on your movements. To create this yourself you don’t necessarily need a xylophone, a wind chime would work just as well. Xilo uses a vision ...

They’ve done it before and they may do it again according to DigiTimes insiders.

That could mean better battery life and smaller form factors for future versions of the device. Presumably, these ...

Damn, where did I put that remote? Sounds familiar right? Add a few more explicit words in there and you have an average day in my living room. It would be nice not to have to fumble around for the remote anymore, sorry Mr. Adler, may you rest in peace. Toshiba has been developing a laptop-based camera gadget called “SpursEngine”, ...
