Filed under: Industry, Misc, Blu-ray, Other formats We'll be completely honest -- we had every idea that D-BOX would just fade away into the sunset just a few short months after we initially heard about it. Au Contraire! In just the past week, we've seen the outfit -- which is responsible for a rumbling Motion Code technology that enables you to "feel" the motions of the movie you're watching -- venture into the wide world of gaming and now into Universal's heart. Starting with the December 23-bound Death Race, D-BOX Motion Code will be available on select Universal Studios Home...
I have been holding off on buying the Ocarina application the iPhone despite it’s rise to the number one application as I couldn’t get myself to spend the 99 cents for an unknown application. After seeing Mike Arrington’s post on it this afternoon, I had to download it. The application is spectacular in that it enables users to play any song in any tone and has all of the features of a standard wind instrument (aside of course the lack of a place for air to exit to increase reverberations). I downloaded the application and suddenly got sucked into one...

Maybe it's because I have the hugest crush on David Pogue of the New York Times, but I find his recently released product finder guide, the Pogue-O-matic, absolutely adorable... and useful too! The Pogue-O-Matic is divided into four parts: cameras, camcorders, smartphones and televisions. If you were planning on getting people any of the above for the holidays, stop by and have little e-Pogue explain what details you should look out for. Being a gadget blogger with a finger on the pulse of the latest and greatest, I personally don't need the advice. But I'll be stopping by anyway......
Hey! Want junk you never knew you needed just in time for the holiday season? Well, you're in luck because there's a Woot Off going on right now. Head over to Woot and bid your little recession-proof heart out! I'm sure there's someone in your family who could use that random whatchamacallit you spent your hard earned money on. [Woot]...
You must be passionate about what you do and what you believe in. You must be passionate, emotional, even a little overzealous, because it’s that passion that will keep you going when times get rough… like now. The passion to make a difference, to be more than the sum of your experiences, to want to promote something greater than just you will make hard decisions easier, forming friendships faster, gathering allies to your cause smoother. Passion will drive you and awaken in you the hero that cannot fail, that cannot be swayed, that cannot be broken. Passion will clear your...
From Recipes I've gotten into a habit of cooking a pot of dried beans every Sunday, then finding ways to use them throughout the week (soupy beans make a wonderful breakfast with a fried egg on top). Recently I cooked chickpeas instead of the usual kidney or black beans, and with lots to spare plus an itching for soup, I set out to see what I could find. This Puglian recipe, which I found on the ever-marvelous 101 Cookbooks, won my heart with its talk of fried shards of pasta and all of 4 ingredients. Normally the soup is made...

The web browsing experience in Windows Mobile has long been terrible if users stick with the default web browser. Internet Explorer Mobile has never been good at all and that's the reason that Opera Mini/ Mobile has done so well. Microsoft has been touting for a good year that the next version of the browser would be very cool, Internet Explorer 6 Mobile would finally start competing with those third party browsers in an area in which Microsoft has no business being poor. The new browser will start hitting the shelves by the end of the year, but only...

Ok, Second Life user Amy Taylor, aren’t you taking things a bit too seriously? Apparently Ms. Taylor is filing for divorce “on the ground of unreasonable behavior after her husband admitted to falling in love with the virtual female character.” Said virtual home wrecker was caught with ex-husband’s David Pollard’s avatar (both pictured above) “in a compromising position on a sofa.” Granted, there is some betrayal here committed by the real-life David to the real-life Amy (pictured above). But why let somewhat virtual reality lead to the end of an apparently fruitful real-world relationship. Then again, Mr. Pollard complained...
