By studio  in  Gadgets   

TiVois busting out their very own Wireless G USB network adapterto help push those Housewives episodes around the home. Not only does it do the traditional wireless thang, but they’vestuck the device with some processing duties usually associated with transferring TiVoToGo vids and Multi-Room Viewing, so you should see someperformance enhancement in those activities. You can buy it direct from the ever smiling Mr. Tivo for a mere $50.   read more

TiVo adds support for 802.11g USB WiFi adapters. But there’s a catch.

By studio  in  Gadgets   

We’ve whined about this before, but it looks like TiVo isfinally adding support for 802.11g WiFi adapters to their Series 2 digital video recorders. Too bad there’s a bigcatch—appar ently you won’t see any increase in speed switching to 802.11g, which means that copying a TV show over toyour PC using TiVoToGo will bejust as slow as if you were using 802.11b. So far only two USB WiFi adapters are supported (Netgear’s WG111 v2 andD-Link’s DWL-G120), but if you can manage it, you may want to stick to Ethernet until they sort things out.   read more

Poll: Will the DROID have you in its clutches?

By studio  in  Gadgets   

We’ve already got some smartphone beasts in the market like the Pre and the iPhone, but Android hasn’t really had a supercharged, drool-worthy device yet -- a knight in shining armor ready to sweep the platform off its feet and ride off into the sunset. The DROID could very well be that device, so we’re turning the question over to you: are you jumping in?   read more

ASUS O!Play AIR HDP-R3 arrives with WiFi and card reader

By studio  in  Gadgets   

We had a sneak peek at ASUS’ BR-HD3 just a week few back, and rather than holding out on us any longer, it looks as if the company has come forward to make things official. The O!Play Air HDP-R3 isn’t a tremendous update from the previous edition, though the addition of 802.11n WiFi and a multimedia card reader are certainly appreciated. Reportedly, the media player packs an HDMI 1.3 socket, support for just about every file format known to man and a respectable price tag of around €90 ($133). Too bad the Yanks in attendance are left in the lurch.   read more

ASRock ION 330HT-BD nettop gets unboxed and cracked open on video

By studio  in  Gadgets   

ASRock’s family of nettops may not be anything special when it comes to design, but the ION 330HT-BD can definitely handle its fair share of multimedia. The Atom CPU could unquestionably use a bit lot more oomph, but the NVIDIA Ion GPU and the integrated Blu-ray drive make this little fellow quite the entertainer. Care to see what it looks like inside and out? Hop on past the break and mash play, then.   read more

Ford’s inflatable seat belts headed to Explorer in 2010, other whips in due time (video)

By studio  in  Gadgets   

Inflatable seat belts. At a glance, that doesn’t seem like such a bad idea after all, particularly for those rear seat passengers who aren’t blessed with two huge bags or air right in front of their chest. We’re guessing the top brass at Ford feel pretty much the same way, as the outfit has just announced that these very devices will be making their debut in the next-generation Ford Explorer before rolling out across the fleet. Of course, Lexus is also planning to shove these into its ultra-luxurious LFA (which will probably make a grand total of 14 wealthy owners feel really, really safe),   read more

Safa Xing LED features MP3 playback, 27 pixel resolution

By studio  in  Gadgets   

Safa is a Korean firm that has put out quite a few forgettable DAPs in its day, and while this one isn’t going to win any awards for technological advancement, it does look like "fun," for whatever that’s worth. The Xing LED is a none-too-shabby 12mm thin and boasts 12 hours of playback time on a single charge. The company fails to mention little things like storage capacity and file format support, but that ain’t why we’re here: the face of the device features 27 LEDs that can be either programed to display the icon of your choice or used for a rousing game of Rock / Paper / Scissors.   read more

Managed Copy hits Blu-ray Discs December 4th, but you still can’t use it

By studio  in  Gadgets   

The egg had to come before the chicken right? Well either way, one of ’em came first and in the case of the latest Blu-ray feature, Managed Copy, the Blu-ray Discs will come before the hardware. Less than five months since AACS was finalized and the details of Managed Copy were revealed and so far we’ve only seen one demo and not a single product announcement. This doesn’t surprise us, but AACS-LA is apparently surprised because although all Blu-ray Discs sold after December 4th have no choice but to allow at least one copy to be made, the requirement to label the packaging as such has been   read more

How would you change Windows Mobile 6.5?

By studio  in  Gadgets   

We know, today is totally Android 2.0’s day to shine, but what would a Friday night be without a little diversity? Windows Mobile 6.5 officially landed on a gaggle of Windows Phones back in early October (a month ago to the day, in fact), but by and large, all of ’em have seemingly drifted off into some forgotten corner while Motorola’s DROID has taken over the hype. Still, we’ve got a feeling at least a few of you loyalists went out and gave Sir Ballmer a few more of your nickles, and now we’re eager to hear if you’re loving or regretting that choice. Is 6.5 really a worthy update   read more
