Google Receives the Last Shipment of Nexus One

Earlier this year, Google revealed that it will be closing the Nexus One web store. Now, according to the official Google Nexus One blog, the company has received the last shipment of the Nexus One phones this week.

Once these devices are planked onto shelves, Google will not make the handsets available. However, present users will continue receiving customer support from the company.

Futuristic Handled Console by Mario Troise

Mario Troise welcomes you to the future of handled gaming. Troise has designed a one screen Nintendo DS concept that seems to be really fantastic and incredible, because it would have almost everything. The concept is very similar to the current Nintendo DS in many respects. The DS would be 3D, it would have 2 motion sensing cameras and GPS. One of the cameras is placed on the front and the other one on the back. The cameras can track the movements of the players in such a way that they can interact with the games through their facial expression or hands.

The iPad Clamshell Notebook

Experiments with non-standard use of iPad tablet computer go on. Do you remember the quite doubtful modding - the 25-year old Macintosh with tablet computer casing? This time the idea is similar, however the “envelope” is a bit fresher – this is the iBook G3 “Clamshell” notebook that had quite an unusual rounded case for its 2001 year of manufacture and thus entered the history of portable computers.
The iBook G3 was based on the PowerPC processor with frequency of 300-466 MHz, that in modern times turns computer into a stylish typewriter. Perhaps that is why an unknown moder decided to renovate the device’s configuration.
As the result the iPad Clamshell notebook appeared. The device has a touch screen (formerly known as iPad tablet computer) and new keyboard that is connected with the tablet by Bluetooth protocol. In general, modding can be considered quite successful, however, it has one and quite a sad minus – the notebook cannot be closed – there is a high risk to damage the screen.

This device will definitely improve quality of life of blind and visually impaired people, because it will help a person depraved of vision to check health on his or her own.
