It’s probably not in the best interest of mankind to try and recreate a big bang right here on our planet, but scientists just can’t get enough of attempting to destroy existence as we know it. For those not familiar with the Large Hadron Collider, it’s the world’s largest and highest-energy particle accelerator complex that stretches a whopping 17 miles. Scientists are using it in order to disprove and/or prove many theorems we aren’t sure about today.

Well, I woke up this morning, so the world hasn’t ended. This must mean the Large Hadron Collider was a success. In celebration of waking up to see another blue sky, DVICE has posted a slew of stunning images of the Large Hadron Collider.

So I grabbed the DSLR and a FedEx box and went crazy. Here’s a bunch of pics of the new Sidekick, as well as the new Sidekick being compared to a Sidekick LX for scale. Enjoy!

Who doesn’t love free stuff? Guitar picks, pins, stickers, and all kinds of shit for the taking! There’s much more stuff you can pick up if you have the cash, including back issues of 2600, HOW TO books from the EFF and MAKE, t-shirts with original designs, CDs, lockpicking sets, microcontrollers and pretty much anything else you can think of.

My buddy JC sent me these pics of his iPhone 1st gen running the new iPhone 2.0 software and running the official AOL AIM client from the App Store. Enjoy!

WWDC was pretty overwhelming, but don’t let that stop you from drooling over the new 3G iPhone. Apple’s site is screwed up from all the traffic it’s getting, so here’s a bunch of iPhone 3G-related pics to keep you happy. Don’t even think of hitting up the online Apple Store - it’s gonna be borked for awhile. I’d imagine July 10th will have all the fanboys lined up outside stores, waiting for their precious $199 iPhone.

We’re pretty sure that we’re really approaching an announcement now. This morning we found pictures of 2 unannounced phones from SonyEricsson being leaked on Chinese forums. The black phone shown above should be the rumored Sofia (code name, K850i) with a 5 megapixels CCD camera module and xenon flash. (CCD, as found on the Thai I-mobile 902, not CMOS). Pay attention to the newly introduced dial/hang up buttons right next to the 2 softkeys below the screen, the d-pad that merges with the number pad at the middle to fit a pretty large QVGA screen. Also check out the camera illumination icons similar to the K810i, that will light up in camera mode to act as camera option shortcuts. The photos are dated back 3 months ago, so it is possible that SE might make final touchups to the design, as experienced by the K750i and W800i in the past. The Sofia should be a WCDMA device due early Q2 this year, price will be significantly lower than Nokia N95.

Jump to check out the other leaked model: Maria M610i WCDMA messaging device with 3.2 megapixels camera.
