GRC | Notes for Episode #231

Klipsch “LightSpeakers”
Whacky, weird and kind of clever. But, really?
A waterproof floating case for the Kindle
Oh come on! How addicted to your Kindle ARE you?
The “Light Touch” interactive table projector
Yeah... and if only your hands didn't get in the way.
(How to consume endless investor money.)
AR.Drone helicopter — controlled by iPhone
Rafe Needleman, who's been reporting in the industry
for years, calls this “The coolest toy I've ever seen”. Really?
Ray Kurzweil tries to build a better e-reader
Well, actually, he's created eReader software that will
run on personal computers. Kinda.
Psion, not gone and not forgotten
“Oldtimers” will recall the early Psion pocket computers. This
new “PsiXpda” looks about the same but now runs Windows.
The new “Goo Pad” mouse?
This one is just too wierd: stick your hand in a pad of goo to
control a computer?
Leo discovers the fingerprint-controlled carbon-fiber wallet
... and it even has Bluetooth for pairing with your cellphone! Huh???
YoYo Battery Charger
... when you really (really) need to send that last tweet!
RCA to create a WiFi-powered gadget charger?
Somethings gotta be wrong with their math.
Did they drop a decimal point somewhere?
