I’m on a boat

We’re Gonna Need a Bigger Sharkboat

Seabreacher X is a pretty tame name name for such a kickass bit of aquatic engineering. I don’t know how you can call a shark-shaped submersible that can jump 12 feet in the air anything other than Jaws. Or AAAAHHHHHHH!

Seabreacher

We’ve seen quite a few personal submarine options lately, but none quite as crazy as the Seabreacher ($65,000 and up). Available in a 155hp, dolphin-inspired J model, or the more badass, shark-bodied 266hp X model, these submersible watercraft can reach up to 50 mph on the surface and up to 25 mph submerged, and are capable of high-speed dives that send the craft launching out of the water. Other features include a snorkel-mounted video camera, an iPod-compatible stereo system, and the ability to scare the bejeezus out of innocent boaters.

Scubacraft

Scubacraft

Underwater shenanigans await aboard the Scubacraft ($120,000). This open-cockpit submersible can reach 50 knots above water thanks to a 250hp engine, and offers push-button descent down to 100 feet beneath the waves, where electric thrusters kick in to move you and up to two friends around the depths. Scuba gear and certification required for the captain and passengers, but if you’re seriously considering buying this thing, that’s probably not going to be a problem.

Can-Am Commander

Hit the trails with a comrade or just give high-speed tours of your spawling estate in the Can-Am Commander ($11,700 and up). These two-seater ATVs sport either a Rotax 800 or Rotax 1000 V-Twin EFI engine, both with class-leading fuel economy, a dual-level cargo box, a rollover protection system, anti-dive front-end geometry, and 10-gallon fuel tanks, all housed in stylish yellow/black or red/black bodies.

The Wafflesicle Maker Has Changed Breakfast Forever

July 29th, 2010 David No comments


The Wafflesicle Maker Has Changed Breakfast ForeverForget everything you ever thought you knew about waffles. Because Lolly, a waffle maker that produces 9.4-inch waffle cones on a stick, has changed everything. Can I interest you in a wafflesicle? Of course I can.

Lolly, from Triangular Concept, can crank out four of these delicious-looking treats in under two minutes. Which is good, because that’s about how long it’d take me to down the first batch and be ready for the second. [Triangular Concept via TheTrendyGirl via The Daily What]

Apple Magic Trackpad

July 27th, 2010 David No comments

Let your fingers do the clicking, scrolling, and swiping.

Introducing the Apple Magic Trackpad. The first Multi-Touch trackpad for Mac desktop computers. Only $69.

Magic Trackpad

Why should notebooks have all the fun?

Desktop users, your time has come. The new Magic Trackpad is the first Multi-Touch trackpad designed to work with your Mac desktop computer. It uses the same Multi-Touch technology you love on the MacBook Pro. And it supports a full set of gestures, giving you a whole new way to control and interact with what’s on your screen. Swiping through pages online feels just like flipping through pages in a book or magazine. And inertial scrolling makes moving up and down a page more natural than ever. Magic Trackpad connects to your Mac via Bluetooth wireless technology. Use it in place of a mouse or in conjunction with one on any Mac computer — even a notebook.

Laser Tracking

The largest Multi-Touch trackpad ever.

Magic Trackpad is just like the trackpad on the MacBook Pro — but bigger. It’s made with the same advanced touch-friendly and wear-resistant glass surface. But with nearly 80 percent more area, it’s the largest Multi-Touch trackpad made by Apple. So there’s even more room for you to scroll, swipe, pinch, and rotate to your fingers’ content. And since the entire surface is a button that clicks, you can use it in place of a mouse.

It fits in perfectly.

Magic Trackpad features the same sculpted aluminum design as the Apple Wireless Keyboard, and side by side the two sit flush at the same angle and height. Go from typing to gesturing in one motion, or do both at the same time. How perfect is that?

Effortless wireless.

Magic Trackpad works using Bluetooth technology, so you don’t have to deal with an annoying cable that dictates where you place it. Once you pair Magic Trackpad with your Bluetooth-enabled Mac, you’ll enjoy a reliable, secure connection up to 33 feet away. Magic Trackpad detects periods of inactivity, and it’s equipped with an on/off switch. Together these features help to conserve battery life, so you can keep gesturing for months at a time.

Get in touch with your desktop.

The entire surface of Magic Trackpad is one large button, so you can click and double-click anywhere. Magic Trackpad also supports a full set of gestures, including two-finger scrolling, pinching to zoom, rotating with your fingertips, three-finger swiping, and activating Exposé or switching between applications with four fingers.

Click, Scroll, Swipe, Rotate.

Pinel & Pinel Arcade Trunk

As much as i love this arcade i have to tell you 1 thing, this is WAY over priced! Lets think about this logically what are we looking at
a Screen $100
controls $20
CPU with 60 games $100
iPod Dock $20
Amplifier $200
Speakers $150
Casing $400!
Total Estimate $990
But like a rollable Dave & Busters, the Pinel & Pinel Arcade Trunk ($13,700 and up) is a retro arcade powerhouse on wheels. Featuring a 1080p LCD screen, a high-def sound system with integrated iPod/iPhone dock, and sixty built-in titles include Pac-man, Space Invaders, and 1942, this high-end gaming cabinet comes clothed in your choice of one of 51 colors of calfskin, which works with the chromium-plated dashboard and aluminum wheels to add a touch of class to your man cave or game room. Again if you are rich enough to blow money on this system you prob already own an actual Man Cave.

Toshiba Libretto W100 Dual-Screen Laptop

In the world of tablets the iPad was super but it was only revolotionary in the way that it had built in internet but in reality it’s only has hype because its Apple. But if you want to talk future The iPad’s single screen simply doesn’t cut it. Perhaps you’d rather pick up a Toshiba Libretto W100 Dual-Screen Laptop ($TBA). Looking like the child of some secret Windows-obsessed mad scientist, the Libretto sports two 7-inch multitouch screens crammed into a 1.5 lb. laptop-like form factor, complete with a multi-mode virtual keyboard, Bluetooth 2.1, 802.11n wireless networking, an Intel Pentium processor (they still make those?), and a built-in webcam — take that, Apple.
