Honda just made a new unicycle-type device (called the U3X) that works like a segway- you lean to make it move and stop. It’s kinda stupid looking… but I still want one!

We were all waiting for Apple to announce a TABLET, we didn’t even see the awesomeness coming from Microsoft. But it’s not a tablet, it’s a BOOKLET.

The dual 7-inch (or so) screens are multitouch, and designed for writing, flicking and drawing with a stylus, in addition to fingers. They’re connected by a hinge that holds a single iPhone-esque home button. Statuses, like wireless signal and battery life, are displayed along the rim of one of the screens. On the back cover is a camera, and it might charge through an inductive pad. They say it’s in the “late prototype” stage.

Watch the demonstration below.. In the meantime, I’m calling Microsoft to try and get my hands on one now!

No need to buy a fancy Halloween gift this year when you have an iPhone and a paper bag! Fun times!

The launch of the Space Shuttle Discovery made this awesome image in the sky. I love rainbows, and I love Shuttle Rainbows even  more!

NASA’s Explanation: Just one minute before midnight EDT, Friday, August 28, the Space Shuttle Discovery began a long arc into a cloudy sky. Following the launch, a bright and remarkably colorful trail was captured in this time exposure from the Banana River Viewing Site, looking east toward pad 39A at the Kennedy Space Center. On STS-128, Discovery docked with the International Space Station Sunday evening. The 13-day mission will exchange space station crew members and deliver more than 7 tons of supplies and equipment. Of course, the equipment includes the Combined Operational Load Bearing External Resistance Treadmill (COLBERT).

The video below is definitely NOT cool and the guy in the video is actually dead- they just propped him up Weekend at Bernies-style…. So watch it if you want. But basically, Coke is introducing the ”fountain of the future“. Basically, instead of just picking Diet Coke, Sprite, Regular Coke. So instead of choosing one of six sodas, you can pick hundreds! You can get your self a Diet Black Cherry Soda when you want one.
