Marineman by Ian Churchill
Posted by Tom Mason Categories: Conventions, Editorials, Image Comics,
This year, 2011, was no exception.
Of all the things I picked up at the various booths, there was one that really stood out for me and I stumbled across it by accident while lurking around the Image Comics area.
Marineman: A Matter Of Life And Depth by Ian Churchill (Cable, Deadpool, The Coven).
Churchill had a spot to himself and was selling trades, individual issues, and sketches.
He’s a charming, affable guy who genuinely believes in his story and his work.
He handsold me on the trade - I’d only heard of the in passing and yet I gladly handed over the $15 to get a copy.

Bleeding Edge TV 392: Belkin Bluetooth Keyboard Folio for iPad 2
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Full Episodes, Gizmatic, Accessories, Cell Phones, Features, Home Entertainment, Podcasts, Videocasts, Videos,
We chat with Belkin about their Keyboard Folio in this episode, shot at GDGT Seattle 2011. The Belkin Keyboard Folio is a Bluetooth iPad 2 keyboard that folds into a case. The keys are TruType, which means that they aren't mushy like a lot of other iPad keyboards, and instead feel like real laptop keys. When you're done, the keyboard tucks away, and the folio acts as a protective case. It also has adjustable angles to maximize viewing and typing modes. You can grab one for $99.

Bleeding Edge TV 387: New unannounced AirPlay feature demoed in Bartleby Vol. II
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Full Episodes, Gizmatic, Apple, Features, Home Entertainment, Podcasts, Videocasts, Videos,
In this video you get a look at an unannounced feature of Apple's AirPlay. You have an iPad 2 running Bartleby's Book of Buttons: Vol. II, and you have an Apple TV. Now, this demo isn't showing the AirPlay wireless capability, due to the NDA, and instead uses a cable - but make no mistake, this is already working wirelessly over AirPlay.
What is interesting is that you have something showing on the iPad display, and something totally different showing on the Apple TV. In other words, the Apple TV is acting as the app, and the iPad has become the controller for the app. Imagine the possibilities this introduces for iPad gaming.

Bleeding Edge TV 385: Logitech C910 HD Pro Webcam review FAIL
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Full Episodes, Gizmatic, Accessories, USB, Apple, Features, PC / Laptop, Podcasts, Product Reviews, Videocasts, Videos,
In this episode, we attempt to review the Logitech C910 HD Pro webcam. According to the package, it's a webcam that records in up to 1080p, and is compatible with both Windows and Mac operating systems. We start recording using the iSight camera built right in to the Apple Cinema Display, and then we decide to switch recording to the C910 to show the difference in video quality. We were running Mac OS X Lion, the day after it was released. Witness the failure.
We asked Logitech what was up, and all they could tell us was that a future software upgrade would be released, however, they couldn't give any sort of timeframe for when we should expect it.
