Updated 04/04/12 10:55 AM · Posted by · 0 comments

Google unveiled its Project Glass heads-up display glasses earlier today. Still in the concept phase, Project Glass would essentially take your smartphone out of your hands and onto your face with the ability to check the weather, get directions, send texts, make calls, and more, thanks to augmented reality. If nothing else, it will definitely bring more hands-free, sci-fi infused interactivity into your life. Get a look at what the glasses can do in the demo video after the break.

Canon Announces Camera For Space Enthusiasts


Updated 04/04/12 10:10 AM · Posted by · 0 comments

If taking photos of the night sky is your idea of a good time, then listen up stargazers — Canon has released a camera just for you. The Canon 20Da is optimized for taking pictures of space thanks to its high-tech infrared filter, low-noise sensor, and superior hydrogen-alpha sensitivity that allow photographers to capture nebulae and other cosmic goodies from the heavens.

The 20Da comes with an 18MP sensor, ISO speeds expandable to 12,800, and the included "Live View" feature allows you to stream what you're seeing in the camera to your TV with the included Stereo AV cable, perfect for education, or just sharing the astronomical love with a group of friends. With a price tag of $1,400, it's a bit hard on the pocketbook, but if you're on the market for a pro quality DSLR and happen to nerd out over space photos, this could be the camera for you.

6 of James Cameron's Geekiest Film Endeavors


Updated 04/04/12 7:50 AM · Posted by · 0 comments

In terms of geek street credibility, nothing gives you more one-ups than painstakingly re-creating a historic film so intensely that a state-of-the-art submarine is used to investigate the story line's artifacts. James Cameron may win the '90s geek medal of honor for his attention to detail in Titanic and its celestially accurate (thank you, as always, Neil deGrasse Tyson) rerelease this week, but his love of all things sci-fi and nerd culture extends far beyond the tragic tale of the "unsinkable" ship. Take a look back at the director's creations, from the mysteries of the ocean to a future of terrifying alien life.

Pros and Cons of the Nokia Lumia 900


Updated 04/04/12 6:35 AM · Posted by · 0 comments

Yesterday we talked about all the reasons you'll love the Nokia Lumia 900, but the phone itself does have a few drawbacks. Debating on whether or not to pick one up for yourself? Here, four reasons why you might want to skip it and a recap of the five reasons you'll want to buy it.

  • The apps (or lack thereof) — The Windows Marketplace is buzzing with apps, but your favorites, like Spotify and Instagram, either don't work or are not available. Your basic social networks are ready and waiting, though, so at least you can keep up with your inner and extended circles.
  • Screen resolution — The 4.3-inch AMOLED screen is big and bright, but only comes with 800 x 480 resolution, which isn't as powerful as other screens on the market. For comparison, the iPhone 4S comes with a 3.5-inch 960 x 640 resolution screen, and while this may not make that much of a difference to you, you might notice a difference while viewing videos and photos.
  • Photo quality — While the photos that I've taken on the Lumia 900 haven't been that bad, they could be better. Considering the phone comes stocked with an 8MP camera with a Carl Zeiss sensor, you expect a little more than you get. The images do seem a bit washed out, and compared to other Android and Apple devices, it's just not consistently up to snuff.
  • AT&T-only — Sure, AT&T's 4G LTE network is fast, but if you are a customer elsewhere, you won't get much of a choice on whether or not to pick up this phone. The Nokia Lumia 900 is exclusive to AT&T for now.

To catch up on all the pros, just keep reading.
