SanDisk Hints That BIG Is Coming
March 20, 2010
If you’ve taken a peek at SanDisk’s homepage today, you’ll have noticed a rather obvious notice on the site stating that something BIG is coming. While we’re not entirely certain what the company has in store for us, but considering that the company specializes in memory, it’s probably worth a bet to say that it’s probably larger capacity of some storage medium. In case you’re wondering, the moment indicated is the coming Tuesday, so stay tuned!

Unconfirmed: Apple Sells 90,000 iPads On The First Day Of Pre-order?
March 13, 2010
While these figures are far from official figures by Apple, it’s still very interesting to take a peek at what some citizens have analyzed by the latest Apple iPad pre-orders. It seems that, based on the order numbers from purchases, and taking into detail the 15,000 online orders that come in a typical day, the fruity company has managed to snag about 91,000 iPad pre-orders in just six hours, which is certainly an amazing feat. It still remains to see how successful Apple’s iPad will be in the distant run, but whether the pre-order numbers are anything to go by, Apple certainly has something good on its hands.

Verizon Sees The iPad As An Opportunity To Sell details Plans
March 10, 2010
Despite Apple once again teaming up with AT&T for the iPad’s documents plan, Verizon doesn’t seem to be discouraged, particularly once you take a peek at the leaked memo to its staff that’s going around the Web. Bringing up points that AT&T’s network is “overloaded”, and that the 3G version of the iPad will cost more, the carrier is aiming to persuade users to get the Wi-Fi version of the iPad and pair it up with a device like MiFi. Of course, what the memo fails to mention is that Verizon MiFi costs you $60 a month, which is twice as much that AT&T charges for its unlimited iPad plan, so you’ll be paying more in the expanded run. What do you think? Are you planning to purchase an iPad with an AT&T 3G plan, or go along with Verizon’s suggestion?

Robot Water Cannons To Take On Pirates
February 12, 2010
When we grew up, nearly every other kid wanted a super-soaker to drench the other kids, so what can we play with when we grow up? Take a peek at what a Russian company has developed - a system of ship-mounted robots which are designed to fight fires, with the option of blowing pirates out of the water (with water). The robotic water cannons, of which there are 6 on each side of the ship, are controlled by a central computer, and it uses cameras to target pirates that are approaching the ship. As they’re able to shoot streams of water at 40 liters per second, up to a range of 70 meters, you probably wouldn’t want to get hit by that, as it could even sink small boats. Would you pit your robot water cannons against pirates?
