The reserve also encompasses one of the most biologically diverse marine areas in the world, so sharks aren’t the only animals who will benefit from the protections. … Read the full story on TreeHugger

December 3, 2010 No Comment
Sure, the PS3 is what’s hip and happening for Sony game fans, but unless you picked up one of the first generation (chubby) units you have questionable support for the greatest generation of games: those that released for the PS2 . But, don’t fret noble gamer, and don’t lament about trading that console in for $15 store credit a few years back. Just buy a new TV! Sony’s KDL-22PX300 LCD has a rather hunky base that conceals a fully working PlayStation 2. That console is fully backwards compatible with O.G. PlayStation games and naturally also plays DVDs but, if that isn’t enough pixels for you, four HDMI ports await the clumsy probes of cables from sources that can better handle the ways of its 720p panel. The set can also serve up video from Sony’s Bravia service over Ethernet or an optional wireless dongle. It’s priced at

December 3, 2010 No Comment
Do not adjust your browsers, that really is a Pentax product adorned with a generous helping of the three primary colors and a mech ‘s head attached to its flash hotshoe. Why? In response to customer demand, of course. It’d seem people were so enamored with the way the K-x got abused restyled that they wanted more of that Korejanai magic, and Pentax is kindly obliging them with a limited run of 100 “robotized” K-r sets. The internal specs are unchanged from the original , but you do get a new 35mm prime lens with a wide F2.4 aperture to play with. Pre-orders costing

December 3, 2010 No Comment
PowerSuit’s no stranger to the reload-and-refuel arena , and just months after ushering out the Primo Battery Cube , along comes this: the Primo Power Core. For all intents and purposes, this is an iPhone-sized battery pack, and it just so happens to be fully capable of charging your iPhone or iPod touch. Unlike the vast majority of alternatives, however, this 8200mAh pack can also rejuvenate an iPad, not to mention a wealth of Android smartphones, your mom’s BlackBerry, a couple of unnamed netbooks (yeah, seriously!) and practically any other handheld gadget that can be juiced via USB. The company throws in a cornucopia of tips for a range of “popular” devices, though high-drain devices like netbooks will need to make use of the 12V port. There’s an external LED charge meter to keep you abreast of how much power remains, and it can be headed to a stocking near you in exchange for $99.95.
