The PS3 ain’t getting a price drop, and I’m okay with that

June 30th 2010 | Posted by admin

I’m not sure who was expecting a price drop in the PS3 — Sony were the ones leading the console revamp charge with the sexy, sales-driving PS3 Slim. I give Sony a lot of flak here on CG, but $300 is simply a great price for the system; if all my money wasn’t already earmarked [...]

iMovie runs on the iPhone 3GS if you jailbreak it

June 30th 2010 | Posted by admin

So we know that IOS4 will be coming to older phones, but of course certain features like iMovie are planned for just the iPhone 4, and not previous models. Well, it turns out that you can run iMovie on older phones, they just have to be jailbroken. I’m not going to go into the technical [...]

“For Those Who See” uses smoke rings to make a lo-fi 3D display

June 30th 2010 | Posted by admin

This is pretty cool, although I think calling it a “display” is stretching the definition a bit. It can display patterns and some basic shapes (I saw a heart in there somewhere) but somehow I get the feeling this isn’t the kind of technology you end up having in the living room.

Hands-on with the U-Boat’s U-1001 diver’s watch

During a meeting I had with Italo Fontana, owner and designer of U-Boat Italy, he expressed his infatuation with professional instruments. The fact that watches are instruments used to measure time, explains why so many watch designers feel the same way. Bell & Ross and Giuliano Mazzuoli are obvious examples that come to mind.

Don’t feel like spending the $30 on a nice case for your new iPhone — or maybe just want to be different? A little of this Sugru modeling clay may be the solution. Just make a few little nubbins, let it dry overnight, and boom.

Pro Tip: Use a 1st gen iPhone dock with the iPhone 4

June 30th 2010 | Posted by admin

This is interesting. It seems that the dock that came with the original iPhone works great with the iPhone 4. In fact, it might work better than the new model molded specifically for the iPhone 4.
Dvice found that the new dock is a bit too snug for their taste and the old dock not only [...]
