I'd like to introduce you to the holder of the title "
highest wattage ever" in induction cooktops.
GE Monogram and Profile
induction cooktops boast a whopping 3700 watts. Instead of gas or electricity, these cookers use magnetic fields to heat your food.
Not familiar with induction cooking? As I briefly mentioned, magnets are involved.[Read the rest of this post]September 20, 2007 by Lauren
Remember when I told you guys there'd be an up-and-coming
miniature projector for cell phones? Well thanks to our friends at
Gizmodo, we've got our hands on the...
hands-on. No pun intended. Really.
Just like any other projector, we were promised the technology to display presentations, movies, or anything else we could think of onto surfaces from our mobile phones.

You've all probably forgotten about
mobile internet devices as of late, but I'm here to bring that back for you. There isn't a whole lot of information known about this little gadget, especially from the video below, but it certainly has at least one interesting feature.
The gadget of which I speak is
BenQ's MID. This baby is a decent sized handheld sporting a black and blue color scheme.

I'm willing to look past the infuriating need of some corporations to put their company names in lowercase, and look beyond, into the wonderful realm of
free[ish] phone service. Just who am I talking about? None other than ooma.
Instead of an ugly monthly fee, ooma offers its users the opportunity to buy the necessary equipment for their VoIP service and never pay again. This company, along with its dreams of freedom, isn't new.

Today Apple announced that the iPhone will be released in Europe on November 9th, so get your tents and sleeping bags ready over there and get ready to camp for some of that iPhone goodness.
The iPhone will be release with UK carrier O2 given exclusive rights to the phone just as AT&T has gotten. The phone released in Europe will be exactly the same as the one released in the US but locked to O2, so if you were once of the many hoping this would be the 3G iPhone, then sorry you'll probably have to wait until next year.

You may or may not have had to deal with this issue personally but when it comes to Early Termination Fees from cell phone providers I would like to think of myself as a seasoned warrior. Many cellular carriers allow you a certain time frame to "trial" their service, this period oddly usually only cinsists of about two weeks. During which you are supposed to decide if you want to stick with that carrier for 2 years.

Non-smoking areas are on the uprise, which is nice for the general
public and their lungs, but pretty upsetting for the smokers out there.
Well for the smokers, though I don't personally smoke or condone it,
I'd like to address the fact that help has arrived. You can now suck
away on your cigarette anywhere, anytime.
This smokeless cigarette, the Crown7, is shaped like your average
cigar.

There's a new Sony camera on the market that looks for your smile. Ever find yourself taking pictures without smiling faces in them?
This camera looks to remedy that problem by incorporating facial recognition technology. The general idea is, either everyone looks happy or this camera won't take the picture.

I'll take the responsibility of announcing
free unlocking software for the Apple iPhone. We'd heard stories of kids who can unlock the iPhone using their dark gifts, but where does that leave the general public? Stuck in a service agreement, that's where.
Yes, Steve Jobs may have gotten word and pitied all of the early iPhone buyers. Yes, he may have
given them all $100 back to console their empty wallets.

With all of the Apple buzz going around, I understand that it's hard to keep up with the competition. But I have to admit, Sony, this thing looks a little strange. As the details were released about this
new MP3 player, the Rolly, it has been said that this device aims to offer something completely different. It think it's safe to say they've certainly accomplished that much.
As you can see, it has sort of an egg shape.
