Sharpie Liquid Pencil doesn’t dry like a Sharpie

Last Updated on Tuesday, 17 August 2010 09:48 Written by Nilay Patel Tuesday, 17 August 2010 09:48

We were pretty excited about the Sharpie Liquid Pencil when we first heard about it — it uses liquid graphite to write like a pen, erase like a pencil, and (supposedly) dry like a permanent marker after three days. Well, it’s been just over a week since our first hands-on , and we’ve got some bad news: we can still erase what we’ve written pretty easily. If you squint just right it sort of looks like it might have dried a little darker, but it’s certainly not Sharpie-level permanence. Sad faces all around. We’ve followed up with Sharpie to see what’s going on and we’ll let you know what we hear, but check the video after the break in the meantime.

Last Updated on Tuesday, 17 August 2010 08:51 Written by Donald Melanson Tuesday, 17 August 2010 08:51

Well, it looks like Nintendo isn’t the only gaming company that thinks Apple is the ” enemy of the future ” — Sony has now also taken aim at iPhone gaming in a new PSP ad featuring Kevin Butler ‘s pint-sized counterpart, Marcus Rivers. In it, Marcus reminds viewers that the iPhone is built for things like “texting your grandma and calling your girl,” while the PSP is “built for big boy games,” some of which can be had for as little as $9.99. See the whole thing for yourself after the break.

Twinbird’s Link Zabady gets SD card reader, the love of TV addicts everywhere

Last Updated on Tuesday, 17 August 2010 07:47 Written by Joseph L. Flatley Tuesday, 17 August 2010 07:47

Twinbird sure loves its little waterproof displays — and you might too, if you spend a lot of time watching TV perilously close to water (that is, in the tub or doing dishes). Like its successors, the latest Link Zabady refresh comes with a 7-inch display, base station (with multiple A/V and S-video inputs), and remote. The device also boasts a new and improved waterproof body and an SD card reader for up to 16GB storage on the unit itself. MSRP is open, although Akihabara thinks you’ll spend about ¥60,000 ($700) on one of these bad boys. Now, say “Twinbird Link Zabady” out loud five times fast.

Samsung Galaxy S GPS-gate: two problems, not one (and what to do about it)

Last Updated on Monday, 16 August 2010 11:26 Written by Chris Ziegler Monday, 16 August 2010 11:26

You may have noticed the update on our Epic 4G review from yesterday where we lauded the fact that Samsung seemed to have fixed the GPS problem plaguing every other Galaxy S flavor released thus far, but it turns out there are actually two distinct issues. One has a fix — sort of — while the other is hopefully what we’re going to get next month .

Microsoft Kinect for Xbox 360 launching on November 10 in Europe

Last Updated on Monday, 16 August 2010 10:39 Written by Thomas Ricker Monday, 16 August 2010 10:39

While Microsoft’s new controller-free Kinect for Xbox 360 will be hitting US shores on November 4th , we’ve just learned that it’ll officially land in Europe, the Middle East, and Africa on November 10th. Sure, that’s a bit of a wait, but take heart in knowing that Microsoft’s targeting an October launch of its Xbox Live lovin’ Windows Phone 7 handsets in Europe compared to a November release in the US. Otherwise, we’re looking at the same 15 exclusive Kinect game titles already announced at E3.

BlackBerry Torch just $99.99 on contract, by way of Amazon’s generous dealings

Last Updated on Monday, 16 August 2010 10:17 Written by Ross Miller Monday, 16 August 2010 10:17

Amazon’s been known to have some killer deals , and well, here’s another. The new BlackBerry Torch , arguably RIM’s best smartphone to date (for what that’s worth), is just $99.99 on contract. That’s just about half off its usual entry fee with a two-year contract, so if you’re in the market to upgrade your current Bold for something with a little more slide, now’s your chance!
