Dissolving Bikini – Best Idea Ever.

techtroniks — Fri, 31 Jul 2009 23:07:14 +0000

This looks just like a normal bikini but within seconds in the water it will dissolve. Some may think its the best idea ever but others, like Rosmarie Zapfl, saying, “It is an absolute insult to women that this has been invented” just don’t know how to take a joke.

Toshiba’s new netbook may be the next best thing since the 1000HE. It’s got all the same specs (N280, 1GB RAM, 10″ Screen etc.) but where it succeeds is in design and price. With most netbooks now spec’ed in the same area, its up to their companies to come up with more user friendly build quality and input device and Toshiba did just the right thing. 3 USB inputs, card reader, webcam etc. make this netbook a true winner.

New Red and Blue PS3 Controllers

New colored controllers with be available this October for the PS3. The controllers won’t be different than the other dual shock 3 controllers so replacing your old black DS3 will be a waste, unless you are a extreme Halo fan. Oh nevermind. IMHO save for something better and paint your own controllers red or blue.

Processor: 1.66GHz Intel Atom N280

Graphics: Integrated Intel GMA 950
Weight: 2.6 pounds
Dimensions (HWD): 0.9×10.3×7.1 inches
Operating System: Windows XP Home

As always, the specs don’t seem to jump out at anyone with this netbook. Since most netbooks havent really changed spec-wise recently this one might be worthy of a second look. Although the specs seem to be comparable to any other netbook on the market, the black metal construction may lure in some extra buyers. Combo’d with a 10 inch screen, this metal netbook may be a winner for some apple fans who cant get over the sleek and stylish feel of the new macbook pros.
