The Fog-Free Shower Mirror with LED Light and Clock

If you have the pleasure of either living alone or living with a female who doesn’t fill the shower up with about fifteen different types of shampoos and soaps, then you might have room for something like this. It makes it so you can keep your entire shaving kit conveniently in the shower and hung out of the way. Now of course this only works if you have enough space, but if you do it’d be nice way to simplify your daily routine. It also might help to get a little clutter off of the bathroom sink.

Which would be good for those guys that happen to have several different types of hair gels lying around. The mirror is fog-free, so no matter how hot you like your showers you’ll still be able to see in the mirror. The caddy has a spot for both your razor and your shaving cream. It attaches to the shower wall by suction cup. If your shower doesn’t have much lighting, you’ll especially love the twin LED lights built in to illuminate your face. Even better is that you c

Welcome to the New Age of the PSP2

Here is a new concept for the Playstation Portable I hope to see in the near future. This PSP2 design concept by Tai Chiem probably won’t be made anytime soon, but it really should.

I mean, just look at the scrolling OLED screen! I think we are close to perfecting that technology, but not that close. Still, it would be nifty to have a screen that can roll up into the PSP itself. No more tiny screen, but it needs some sort of electrical charge to hold it up. I guess it uses the same “memory cloth” technology as shown in Batman Begins.

Not only does it have the rolling and scrolling action going on, but the side speakers fold inwards, presumably to hold the screen into place when it is rolled up. Rumor has it the speakers are the controls for the device. This appears to the only method of control, as I don’t see a controller or buttons.

This technology is too good to use on just portable video game consoles. I think that every cellular phone needs to be this wand-shaped thing that you can use to take and receive calls, and then roll it out to watch videos or whatever applications you care to run.

Well, as I said before, the PSP2 probably won’t be available any time soon, so if you want a new style of PSP, you’ll have to get the PSP-3000.

In Brief

BlackBerry Javelin Gets Reviewed, Showered with Adoration

The fine addicts over at Crackberry got themselves a pre-release BlackBerry Javelin, and found it to be a worthy follow-up to the Curve, as well as having advantages even over the schmancy-pants Bold. The Javelin is not only the smallest of the three, which feels great in the hand and the pocket, but also boasts the sharpest screen at 480×360 HVGA+, for smaller and crisper icons. The camera, processor, and internal memory all get a significant bump from the Curve, making it noticeably snappier. In terms of navigation, the keyboard is very slightly more condensed, but the reviewer finds it just as easy to use. But the biggest improvement might be the smallest - a dedicated Lock button. We still don’t have an official release date or price, but the pre-release review is a happy hint that it might come out sooner rather than later. [Crackberry]

Pentax Leaks Affordable New K-m DSLR

There’ve been lots of rumors floating around about Pentax’s Photokina lineup, and it looks like the German Pentax site leaked some images and details about the K-m, an entry-level DSLR. Specs are a little bit sketchy, but it’s using the same 10.2MP Sony sensor as the K200D, and retains the 2.7-inch screen and the sad lack of Live View. But the iso gets a boost to 3200 and the fps to 3.5, and the pricing seems extremely competitive, at only 500 euro for the 1-lens kit and 600 for the 2-lens kit. The K line has been solid so far, so we’ll be watching out for it at Photokina

Stanton DaScratch SCS.3D DJ Pad Is All Touch Sensitive, Combines Mixer and Turntable In One Device

Stanton’s new DaScratch USB-MIDI Tool is unique because it relies completely on touch technology to mix and manipulate music. With the possibility for 5 touch sensitive sliders, 19 touch sensitive buttons, and one giant, touch friendly rotary control (read: the big record-like circle in the middle), it appears you can run the show with little more than a laptop and one (maybe two) of these

LHC Repair Update: Temperature Must Be Raised so Repairmen Don’t Die

In case you were still worried about the LHC bringing on the biblical apocalypse, you can calm down, because it turns out the Collider is going to be out of commission for a lot longer than previously thought. The “electrical transformer” problem wasn’t the cause of the shutdown at all, and the real problem means the LHC won’t be back up and running for at least two months.
