“NEW” color iPod Touch

These seem to be the five introductory colors of ANY iPod.

color iPod touch

Sorry to burst your bubbles but these are, unfortunately, MY CONCEPT iPod Touches. :P

I had the idea on what a colored iPod Touch would look like. These seem to work best. I took a shot and shot for the stars.

Hope you’re drooling on them already… I’m planning on buying another one… even though I have two of them already. But I’ll wait till the one comes out in color AND has a camera.

Here’s a silent commercial I made out of the picture:

SDXC

Ever heard of SD HC (Secure Digital High Capacity)? Welp, SD XC (Secure Digital eXtended Capacity), is supposedly the Next Gen of SD HC.

Recent reports (which by the way have been proven true already) say that the NEW SD XC will outperform its older generation far better and mightier than the HCs. Simply put, more speed, more capacities. How big, you say? Well, it starts at 32GB (the highest its been in todays market) to a whopping, ground-breaking, breath-taking 2TB !!! YEEESSSHHHH… 2TB!!! You may never have to empty your SD cards EVER AGAIN! Well this might not be much of interest to Photographers, it is most definitely pointing towards the Movie business… simply put, more memory = more movie.

At today’s rate, a 4GB card can record a 720p video for 2 hours… now think what a 2TB card can hold! Only problem they need to solve now is the battery!

SD might be big News enough but you do know it has a sibling, right? The mini SD? Well… heh heh… its getting an upgrade too. Brothers unite! The mini SD Card will as well have the capacities of 32GB – 2TB. Think how many music lovers and cellphone enthusiasts there’ll be when this unravels… I’m guessing that when it’s released, it’ll be of a higher but reasonable price but as the market goes on… i’m pretty sure a terabyte of memory will be a common thing to know.

NEW MacBooks, iPhone, and iPod Touch 2nd Gen

overview-gallery1-20090608

Today, Apple has, in its hay day, released, yet another, update…

Today, it has revolutionized yet again, its MacBooks. In the process altogether, the Apple has completely wiped out the MacBooks and replaced them with the MacBook Pro line: The 13-inch, the 15.4-inch and the 17-inch. Standardizing its Firewire-800, the SD Card Slot (sacrificing the slot-drive-thing) and also standardizing the “new” batteries on all the macs ones that go up to 8-hours a charge.

iPhone 3GS

The “NEW” iPhone, dubbed, the “iPhone 3G S,” is pretty much the same, only with new features such as: Video Recording; complete with a video editor and capture (all on your iPhone,) a voice-control (which we’ve seen on some apps but not on the native apps themselves), CUT, COPY, AND PASTE! Tethering – a process where you use your iPhone as a modem to connect to the 3G internet using your phone on your MacBook, the keyboard – where you now are able to go to landscape on Notes, Calendar, Safari, Phonebook and Messages! MMS (Multi-Media Messages) – Messages that contain pictures, audio and files, Maps, complete with a compass, and last but not the least, Search, sort of the Spotlight for your iPhone and iPod Touch.

As a new Mac user, I am, therefore irritated with these updates coming in so soon!!! I just bought my 15.4-inch MacBook Pro, 2.66 GHz, 4 GB RAM, 320GB HD; exactly ONE MONTH AGO, today! I WANT THE NEW MACBOOK PROS!!! and the worst thing is that I paid more money to have this rigged up to speed with what I wanted only to find out that the new ones will be $300 less than what I paid for. UGH! Many of the Mac users have been used to this feeling and I for one, have not yet been.

Bluetooth

I do have an interesting discovery. While visiting the Apple website in hopes of new updates for my MacBook Pro and my two iPod Touches, I stumbled upon the very word that I have been hoping for was on the iPod Touch… BLUETOOTH. Yes. You heard me. Bluetooth! As it turns out, the NEW iPod Touches already have them… Apple just hasn’t written the code to be able to use it yet. I’m glad I didn’t buy that Apple Headphone with mic and remote! HA!

To wrap things up, Apple, as we all know, is, and always will be, a guessing game. No one knows when things come out, how it will change us all and how agonizingly painful it is to see the prices. Well, that’s it folks! Tune in for more info on more Electronics and entertainments, only from, the one and only, youareageek!

NEW Zune HD!

Microsoft has just confirmed that the newest of its Portable Media Center is coming out namely, ZuneHD! It features a fully functional 3.3″ touch screen, an HD Radio reciever, an HD video out, WiFi, and a web browser. Although it does compare to the iPod touch, it pretty much is just a touch screen MP3 player. It lacks the “Apps.” I hope this helps boost back the Microsoft/Zune customers.

Left4Dead’s New Update: Survival Pack

The long anticipation is over. The update’s here! Vavle‘s awesome game of the year, Left4Dead has brought waves of zombie lovers all over the world. From tactics, to planning to surviving to keeping each other alive… or not! Left4Dead is pretty much the best zombie game ever made! Since its release in 2007, it has brought many fans the excitement it can muster. But 2007 is so not today! People want more!

And so, with Valve’s ingenious updates, Left4Dead has brought itself to a whole new level that people will love. Although we didn’t get new maps for Left4Dead, Valve has released the Editor! Not only can you edit and make the game yourself, you can play it and share it with your friends.

Some new features in the maps are the updated building architechture; in other words, more hiding spaces for the infected. It has added new rooms and has given the players new places to duck and cover. Also, in the update, they’ve made the Versus Mode available to all the maps. They’ve also put a distinction between the Versus maps and the Campaign maps.

They’ve also updated the infected’s powers, so to say. They’ve given players more control over the Tank and had its health last a little bit longer. They’ve updated the blinding bile from the Boomer; and yes, you really can’t see anything. Given more pounce-ablility to the hunter and a longer range for the smoker. Also, depending on what the skill levels of the players are, they’ve modded the horde so they can spawn quickly in quick attacks.

As stated in Steam:

Survival Mode:

New Gameplay Mode

16 NEW Maps including Last Stand

Leaderboards; and

7 NEW Achievements

Versus Mode:

2 NEW Versus Campaigns

Fixing the scores even thought the scoreboard has opened up

And more…

All in all, this is, by far, the best update ever! I’m off to go see the new maps! So, we’ll see. I’ll try to make my own levels too. As soon as I’m done with all my projects and exams and jobs. Hehe :)
