Hey, hey Sony gamers. Looks like the Playstation team has let one slip. Originally scheduled for an E3 unveil, screenshots and video clips of the PSP Go have been revealed early by Qore magazine.
Above you will see the PSP Go in all of its glory in a apparent screenshot from the magazine. There’s also a video floating around of Qore’s Veronica Belmont chatting about the device with Sony’s John Koller. Now, what to do with that old 3000?
I have always wanted a picture of myself on my own belt buckle. It’d have the same effect as Steve-O’s back tattoo except I can take it off whenever I want. Kimbra Studios understands my needs. It knows that I’d rather hang pictures from my waist rather than the walls of my apartment.
It’s easy to do, too! All you do is go to Kimbra Studios’ website, select what you want to put your photo on (an assortment of wearables such as belt buckles and bracelets) and then upload an image. The prices range depending on what you want your picture on. The cheapest is the mobile-phone charm, which only costs $14. Want to go big? The bracelet costs $260.
If you’re an avid Photoshop user or graphic designer, you’ll surely be able to appreciate this unique photo frame. It mimics a window from the popular Adobe program, Photoshop. For $50, you too can slap a picture of you and your wife dressed up as Darth Vader in this frame. Will it start conversation come your next cocktail party? Of course, but don’t come crying to use when you accidentally apply the Gaussian blur.
If you have an old Nokia 6100 lying around, put it to good use! Rip it apart, grab that LCD and follow Alex’s instructions on how to turn it into a picture frame that displays photos from Flickr. Don’t use Flickr? Then you’re just not very Huey Lewis & The News.
If DIY projects aren’t your forte, you may want to keep your distance as this one’s a real doozy. The finished product is pretty neat (to an extent), though, so give it a go if you have a free weekend.
Ever wish you could stare up at the sky and see the stars move, without having to track one specific star for hours on end? This excellent time-lapse photo shows the movements of the stars through a full night, and we don’t mean in some artsy-fartsy design sort of way.
The finished product looks like a tunnel or worm hole has opened and ripped its way through the heavens. Good thing the photographer had a clear and cloudless night. Excellent and intriguing shot. Just to think, somewhere out there, our very own little Mars Man is being demolished by an avalanche.– Andrew Dobrow
When we send photos to our loved ones, we send them with the hope that they will show the photos in their home with pride, but what if they don’t have any open picture frames? They’ll eventually forget about the photos all together, throwing them in some mildly messy filing cabinet for postmortem separation.
GetFramed is a new concept which ships the photo for you, alone with a paper picture frame which can be constructed using the same envelope the photo was sent with. Just open the envelope, fold, and assemble and the 10 x 15 cm frame is ready to showcase your new ugly photo for the year. — Andrew Dobrow
We’ve seen a number of overbox solutions for watching pictures on TV, we have products from giants like Sandisk and Iomega, the problem with these products is that they don’t support HD resolution, and you need to walk over and plug your memorycard in physically. Sharp seemed to have gotten it right this time with the HN-IR1 wireless photo adapter, first off it supports the second generation Infrared beaming protocol the IrSS with a maximum speed of 4Mbps, the limitation would be its 20cm range; it’s Infrared after all.
The other side of the IR1 will connect to your HDTV via the 1080i D-port. The maximum resolution of JPEG supported is 8 megapixels, which is really sufficient for all the phones that support IrSS. You can also zoom in and flip your pictures on the TV. These are only some really basic functions, so the box itself is pretty tiny too, measuring 79×70x28mm and weighing 66g. Obviously Sharp is only dipping its toes into a new market, by positioning the IR1 as a cellphone accessory, and the phones supporting IrSS right now are all Japan-exclusive. Take note that the Aquos High Vision Recorder announced last week can also support a similar function. Estimated retail price is just over 100USD, they should be available in March. –Sam Chan
