Uncouple Your Phone From That Plastic

So I am always on the look out for a good phone case, something that doesn't just encase my phone in a plastic tomb, so I was really awe struck when I saw this case made by Hard Graft. Damn. And the great part is that they don't just make phone cases. Check them out and I think you will be as impressed as I am.
I want every single one.

Mamiya has released a slew of new medium format cameras with a badging of the DM Series. The new camera is coming in the flavors of 22, 28, 33, and 56 Megapixels; but the MPs aren't a game changer.

The Future Of Publishing: Wired Magazine

Browsing WIRED online today, they have a video of what they have been working on for tablets to be able to revolutionize publishing and the future looks good. Personally, this user experience looks a lot better and far more polished than the Sports Illustrator version, that I blogged about a few months back. I think the key here, as the interview states is that they are trying to enhance their brand by adding this new outlet while continuing to have a print version. Lets be honest, tablets aren't going to replace newspaper stands when they cost $500 dollars a pop; the reason why paper stands work is because people can grab and go and toss whenever they want. Still for us obsessed with seeing the envelope of the digital age pushed, this is an exciting time.

Microsoft finally makes something people want: Windows Phone 7 Series

Microsoft announced today that we will see a reinvention of their windows mobile platform into the Windows Phone 7 Series. What implications does this hold? Well they are getting into the fight with Apple IPhone, Google Android, and Symbian. The new phone features an experience oriented around the user bringing pictures, Facebook, and Xbox live to your phone. Overall the UI looks nice but a little clunky, lets be honest there is a hell of a lot going on here. The potential for the phone is endless especially if you can play your Xbox Live titles on your phone and then continue playing them when you get home on your Xbox. The phone is in beta right now but is due for a slew of press conferences and a release date in Holiday 2010.  MicrosoftPhone7 Series.com

Apple News: No iTablet - No iSlate - its iPad

So. The day everyone has been anticipating in the tech world has come and gone and Apple Inc. has finally released from their tight lipped mouths the iPad. Like an iPod but bigger. And a little better.
Featuring a 9.7" not quite 1080p resolution screen and a souped up version of the iPhone OS this little guy is bound to make jet-setters lives a little bit better. Right? Lots of debate going on and whether this is polished enough for the masses, I won't lie. It could be better, and hopefully in the next 60 days until release Apple announces some better features. Ahhhheeemmmmm. APPLE. THE NEXT 60 DAYS!
It will vary in cost from $499 for the entry level model all the way to $829 for all the bells and whistles. PS dont skimp and not get the 3g, you will realize how stupid you were as soon as you leave your front porch.

Check Out Engadget for all the latest coverage on the new device.

Treat Yourself: Bicycles

So I recently stumbled upon this bicycle company based out of Italy that makes some killer bicycles. The company is Abici and their cruisers are by far my favorite city bikes I have seen. You can pick up his and her bicycles for less than a grand each. I never said they were affordable :) but remember you pay for what you get. Anywho, they will most likely get stolen before you get to ride yours anyway.
