New Nintendo DS Coming Out In a Year?

no comments

According to Tokyo’s Nikkei (which is the equavalent of the Wall Street Journal), there is a new DS coming soon.  The new DS will sport a camera (games are going to be built to incorporate the camera), built in Wi-Fi, and have music playback.  It will not be a entirely new gaming device, but another version of the DS we have now.  Good thing I never bought the DS Lite, maybe I’ll pick this up if it shows to be promising.

My Documents Laptop Sleeve

This sleeve fits any laptop up to 15.4 inches, keeps everything sleek, shiny, and scratch-free. Now you can buy it through ThinkGeek for $29.99 plus shipping. But the word “Document” is missing an s, and it would probably bother a lot of people.

HP Goes Green With Messenger Bag

no comments

Walmart had a contest to see which company would reduce the most enviromental impact. Walmart’s goal was to make products green-er. HP won and their solution was to cut the boxes and excess materials, and just give the laptop (Pavilion dv6929wm) in a bag. HP’s laptop is going to be sold exclusively in Walmart and Sam’s Club Stores. There is no word on specifications yet but the laptop will sell for $798. Not a bad idea, might just cut down a lot of cardboard use in their factories.
