The deskjet printers is an old story. When thinking to get a computer printer, go for dot matrix printer.

Though you’d think the lightning bolt would have caused major damage to the plane, it was just minor turbulence for passengers aboard. Animated picture after the jump.

This shot shows a lightning bolt striking an airplane taking off Osaka’s airport, then hitting the ground. Lightning is not dangerous for airliners, as the electricity flows around their aluminum skin

Now pdas are not just limited to pda games but becuase of pda gps, they are capable of almost anything now.

When is playing Gears of War not just playing Gears of War? When you play it on a $70,000 103-inch plasma TV. Video after the break.

Yeah, I’m standing way, way too close, and I did get pretty motion sick playing for more than five minutes, but it was totally worth it. The video, shot by enterprising videographer Alex Goldberg, includes commentary by Panasonic Display President Andrew Nelkin, who really loves himself some Wii Boxing

So you’ve seen the iPod Nano, now check out Gizmodo’s iPod Touch mockup, which will apparently resemble the iPhone, a slightly thicker version of it. Continue reading for a poll.

Here’s the mock-up of the next generation iPod Touch. And when we said touch, we mean touch: the home button doesn’t have to be pressed, it could be electrostaticmagickalifragilistic and glow

It manages both its tiny size (its the smallest on the market) with its powerful punch (the company claims the highest volts of any comparable system) by losing the 9v batteries that most tasers use for what I’d guess is a nicad or lithium battery. That also means you can recharge the little bugger. Not bad for $80. I wonder if there’s a way to turn an old iPod’s lipoly battery into something like this with a capacitor?

In any case, the USB chargers, including the flagship SCM7880 (pictured), holds up to 60 hours of juice inside and then charges up your phone, MP3 player, or whatever else you have that needs charging. It’s got an LED indicator on the front that’ll let you know how much juice is left, and it has six connector tips to hook up to your various toys. It’s due to hit Europe this December, with no word on a Stateside release. [Philips]

michael%2Bsans%2Bcuckoo2.jpgIf you’re looking to make your apartment look as creepy as possible, you can’t do much better than nailing a dead bird to your wall, hanging a clock around its neck, and calling it art. That’s just what designer Michael Sans did, and it’s why he presumably lives a solitary life. No, you can’t buy one, as he only made one and it isn’t for sale. You don’t need me to tell you how to make your own, you creepball. [Watchismo Times via Product Dose]
