Pokemon Mini Hacked

For those of you that don’t want to spring the $200-500 (est.) for the PSP, you can always pick up a Pokemon Mini that has been hacked to play other games (4 so far) in addition to the one that comes on it.

Sony -Uh- Un-Plugged

Bringing together all my stuff from around the web, I found this plug for Sony Clies.

2-21-2003 – Sony PlugRecently I had to help someone pick out a PALM device because I knew a lot about them because I have one….

I own an ipaq 3670 and an ipaq 3835. This was one of those people that you didn’t waste your time trying to explain the difference. Anyway, I couldn’t quite get them to the Dell price point so I told the to buy a Sony Clie (how do you pronounce that by the way) which is basically a Palm+

Sony does a lot of cool things with their devices they just aren’t the best at making whatever they do the standard — like MS. Can anyone say beta? Anyway I would love a Sony PPC but we’ll never see one ’cause old Bill and the CEO of Sony are basically involved in a billion dollar pissing contest… and let’s face it, the PPC industry just isn’t worth enough $$$ for them to kiss and play nice.

The sad part is that Sony has decided to stop making the Clie (still wondering how exactly you pronounce that – guess I’ll never know) at least outside of Japan.

Paper Grand?

No not that type of grand. A Grand PIANO. That’s right a grand piano made out of cardboard. A mover’s dream or a keyboardist’s joke? Well actually it was built to show off a new process which presses circuits into paper instead of silicon. No plans for sales at this time. Sorry ikia boy.

Laptop Picture Frame

Channel Nine has a new “citizen engineers” section. These techies have come up with a DIY way to create a laptop picture frame. Let’s take a look:

The following is the detailed plan that I wanted to accomplish on my first day of the project:

1. Pull all hardware out and throw away the covers
2. Study the hardware modules in the laptop
3. Select the modules that are necessary for the picture frame
4. Build a holding mechanism for the selected modules
5. Build an aesthetically pleasing picture frame around the holding mechanism and the modules
6. Assemble the picture frame
7. Test

It sounds simpler than it is…..

Really?! Cause it doesn’t sound that simple…
