We know by picking this title it would be crazy to get drunk off of this much beer. You can get this flash drive from 128MB to 8GB. But right now this is not available due to promotional purposes. Sorry college students.
The Carcade uses a webcam to hook onto the inside bottom window and makes the natural environment objects in the game. For example, lets say your playing an airplane game like this one in the video. Well when you pass a tree it will appear on the game and you have to find a way to get around it. As you can imagine the faster your going the harder the game gets. The one thats in the video is just a prototype but it gives a good look at what might be coming to a car near you.

Wow this is has to be one of the dumbest things I have ever seen for the iPod. I mean with all the different carrying cases you would think they would add $60,000 worth on them. But if you want to make your ear sparkle and make it the most expensive body part then these bad boys are just for you. I would be affraid to go into public with them. Some one might see them and snatch them from you. So be careful.

Apple has broken with tradition and is offering some customers a SIM unlocked version of its iPhone.
A notice on Apple’s web site states that consumers in Hong Kong can buy an unlocked 8GB iPhone for HK$5,400 (£385) or a 16GB version for HK$6,200 (£422).
Apple has not made much of a splash about the release, which goes against its usual region-locked policies.
The Hong Kong Apple Store pages say:
An iPhone 3G purchased at the Apple Online Store can be activated with any wireless carrier. Simply insert the SIM from your current phone into iPhone 3G and connect to iTunes 8 to complete activation

Making a Retro Header:
For many web designers it crucial to know different ways to make headers. We think the more techniques you know the better looking the design will look. Over at iDoTutorials they made a header that has a nice retro spin to it.
