Cell Phone Cams Can Make You a Star
Posted by Sheila Franklin Categories: Cameras, Smartphones, Corporate News, Editorial,
Budding filmmakers, keep on YouTubing. With hits sometimes getting into the millions, you could be discovered any time now. The proof of this pudding comes from the likes of Spike Lee, who is now working with Nokia to direct cell phone footage of the little people. The director stated, “Aspiring filmmakers no longer have to go to film school to make great work. With a simple mobile phone, almost anyone can now become a filmmaker.”
Yeah, we know that this is not your ordinary director with ordinary backing, but with a decent cellie cam and the world as your oyster, go out there and take your best shot.

Paradise Image SunSpa for Pets
Posted by Sheila Franklin Categories: Corporate News, Design, Misc. Tech,
Paradise Image has developed the SunSpa for your pets. The company says it is the equivalent of sunlight shining through a window. The wooden arch has a temperature range of 80 to 85º at 150 watts for about 5,000 hours. The pad folds up for easy storage and its cover is odor, stain, and water resistant. The unique item will be on display May 16 to 18 at the Baltimore Pet Spring Trade Show, if you happen to be in the area. We are hoping the SunSpa will be so popular that the company will make one for humans.

Mobiado Professional Camo Cell Phone
Posted by Sheila Franklin Categories: Smartphones, Design, GPS, Wireless / WiFi,
Mobiado has released the Camo, a top of the line cellie for the outdoorsy type. The cami design is hand-painted, so you know that its Limited Edition of 200 isn’t made for the masses. The phone is made of an anodized aluminum shell with stainless steel buttons and a 65k display with a 208 x 208 pixel res. It also features tri-band GSM, Bluetooth support, video streaming, music player and FM, and a 1.3 megapixel camera with dual-LED flash. Contact Mobiado for price and availability details. We just want to know, if a Camo gets lost in the woods and rings, does it still make a sound?

Poll: Have you joined the Zune Social?
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Internet, Microsoft, Music, Portable Audio / Video, Wireless / WiFi,
Amidst all the Zune news of the past day, we were curious to get the pulse out there. How excited are you about the whole Zune Social thing? We’ve gotta admit, when we saw some of the ideas that the peeps over at Microsoft came up with as it pertains to music discovery within Zune, powered by your social network, we were kinda digging it. So, what say you? Have you gone and customized a Zune Card for yourself, maybe even syncing a few to your Zune device? Do you keep WiFi powered on when you take your device out and about in anticipation of swapping tracks? Or are you one of those who just stay as far away from the Social as possible? Sound off and let us know.
That Zune 2.5 update sure installs fast
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Microsoft, Movies, Music, Software,
Random, I know…but it just had to be said. One of the absolute banes of my history with the Zune software is how freaking long it took to install it. Even when updates were released, those typically took a little while from start to finish as well. So imagine my delight earlier this morning when I fired up the Zune client to download the latest Zune 2.5 Spring Update, and having the entire process last less than two minutes. Fit and finish, indeed.
Review: Ipevo USB PoV Webcam
Posted by Sheila Franklin Categories: Cameras, Misc. Tech, Product Reviews, USB,
Ipevo was generous enough to lend us one of their movable PoV cams that we first told you about it back in December. The $39.99 priced camera came intact with a CD, mounting pieces that are mostly easy to attach, and almost everything we needed to test it out. Unfortunately, the extended instructions were on the CD, so it was a back and forth effort. Our full review after the jump.
(Thanks, Caroline)
