Seeing double? A mouse with two cursors.

So, on a whim I signed up for the Sci-fi channels tech update e-letter. So far the tech it talks about hasn’t been anything earthshattering (weird, yes), but any of the big items are already well covered by other sites. This double cursor mouse however, wasn’t something I had seen before. It makes you wonder where people come up with these ideas. I do like the article title though. Check it out : “Dual cursor mouse does… something, apparently”

The Treo 700w gets a bad rap

It seems that David Berlind over on ZDNet is testing the new Verizon Treo 700w Windows Mobile 5 device. It appears he doesn’t like it much. Take a look at his early review. Quote: “I’m sure I’ll have more comments as I continue to use this device and if Microsoft, which is checking into some of these comments, gets back to me with news that it’s user error, I will let you know.

Origami?

Origami? Let’s see….what does it say here: “It could play music, games, send photos, help navigate and generally act as an all-round digital helper.” (from BBC) So, it’s a smaller PC running the tablet OS and can play music, games, work with graphic files, and serve as a replacement to your mp3 player, PDA, and smart phone. Hmmm….Didn’t I review one of these? Oh, no, wait, that was my LS800 tablet.
