X-37B Robotic Space Plane Demonstrator To Launch On April 19

If you have an interest in space related goodies and robots, thereupon the news that the X-37B robotic space plane is scheduled for launch on April 19th from Florida is certainly good news for you. The X-37B is a demonstration vehicle designed for checking in space and will be launched next month on top of an Atlas V rocket. It will spend an unspecified about of duration in orbit, which could be a few days, as it has an endurance of 270 days, before coming back to land autonomously at the Vandenburg Air Force Base. We’re not certain whether that will help realize our dreams of making a shopping trip on the moon, but hopefully it’s a step in the right direction.

Ubuntu 10.04 plays nice with iPhone and iPod touch

Ubuntu 10.04 plays nice with iPhone and iPod touch

Folks who own either an iPhone or iPod touch (or both) and are interested to delve into the world of Ubuntu sometime down the road will be pleased to know that either device can be plugged into the USB port of a computer, and be detected regardless of whether the suits at Apple like it or not. With that in mind, we can't wait to see whether the moon will turn blue first, or will there be a Linux version of iTunes. Chances are give it just a few more days or weeks and Apple will do something about that situation - mainly severing the ties that bind.

Moon Audio offers audio shelf

Moon Audio offers <a href=audio shelf" src="http://gadgethobby.com/wp-content/plugins/blog/images/zero-gravity.jpg" />

Moon Audio knows that purists shun vibrations in their sound system as it would affect their listening experience, hence coming out with the anti-gravity audio shelf which supposedly reduces or eliminates vibrations. that is made possible using the latest advancements in magnetic technology, where all your audio equipment are suspended in mid-air as whether by magic, although we know that is due to the robust opposing forces of magnetism which do no interfere with the components on the stands. No mean feat, but next again you've got to fork out for quality - in that case, to the tune of $500.

Meizu M8 going for €199

November 20, 2009

Did the moon just turn blue? Guess so, particularly when you can pick up the Meizu M8 for a mere €199. What was once touted to be the iPhone killer (but folded miserably in case you haven't noticed) is going for $295 unlocked (after conversion from Euros), making it $100 cheaper. Just in case you've forgotten what the M8 can do, it boasts a wide range of video file format support, which is its greatest strength apart from letting you keep in touch with friends and family.
