Tech News for the Day, Tuesday, November 25, 2009

Start with Swype. Think of it as a way to do texting with one finger that never leaves the touchscreen keypad. Apparently, Samsung Omnia II is going to have this feature. I could change the world of texting.

Speaking of texting, some guy has created the Textimator, a Dance Dance Revolution game that faces off texters against each other.

For those who love the Vado HD by Creative, then you should know that they have a third generation of it.

Ostendo is selling the CRVD, a curved screen display that cost a pretty penny. Find out how much here.

There is a Yoda that plugs into your USB port, it does. Hmmm?

Those large screen DSi, the LLs, are selling much bigger than the Sony PSPgo. Whoa! Find out how much here.

Want some bass on your MacBook? You should get the BassJump subwoofer.

Those that like those inspirational posters back in the day will love Successories, and you can write your own inspiration.

Here’s a product that I can’t afford now, but a lot of businesses probably need: a PXDUO-65P Interactive Plasma Display.

Palm Pre Precorder for Video Recording


Palm Pre owners will be pleased to know that there is a new homebrew software known as the Precorder that will enable some 480 x 320 pixel video recording at 30fps. Unfortunately, it is an alpha, so there are some bugs, such as not being able to preview what you are recording. The videos can be played back on the Pre’s video player in formats of MPEG-4, H.263, and H264/AVC.

You should be able to preorder the Precorder at the Wiki page.

“Here Comes the Plane” wth the Illuminated JetBib

c682_plane_bib_combo_animYou know that trick that parents do with babies, when they do the whole “here comes the plane” schtick?

Well, now you can make if far more realistic with a bib with landing lights, as well as a spoon that looks like an airplane.

It is available to preorder for $24.99 at the ThinkGeek website, but you might not see it for 3 weeks. However, it should be here for the holidays for all the new parents on your list.

Want a Nook for Christmas? Sold out, sorry.

nook_front_view_270x359Have you ever noticed that just before the holiday season rolls around, there is some big item that everyone wants?
Think Nintendo 64. Think Sony Playstation 2.

This year, it might be the Nook. Yes, that awesome reader from Barnes and Noble is out of stock, according to the company website.

Of course, none have even been shipped yet, and looks like no one will be able to get their hands on it, at least not this year. Yeah, if you order it right now, you should see it come your way come January 4th at the earliest.

The same thing happened with the Kindle last year from Amazon. Many speculate that Barnes and Noble tried to compete with Amazon and was not able to keep up with the inventory. By the way, there are plenty of Kindles for sale, and would get to you before the holiday.
