Looks like Blackberry (RIM) is finally ready to go mano a mano with the iPhone with the Blackberry Storm. I’m pretty loyal to Blackberry so I’m excited to see this one come out. It looks pretty amazing to me, although from the pictures I’ve seen, the iPhone takes the cake in terms of design.

For an even more in depth look at the Storm, head here to check out an entire slideshow with info and pictures.

According to some reports, Apple will drop their new aluminum Macbooks on us this October. Not only will they have a thin aluminum casing, but they also might be priced lower than pervious Macbooks. There has been chatter that Apple is going to start lowering prices on products to become even more competitive, and what better way than to drop a lower priced Macbook.  I would be very down with this.

Technology is off the hook. I love seeing what people are able to come up with these days. I especially love it when I come across something that is not only technologically great but finctional as well. And that is exactly what the B Scanner is. Created by Sungwoo Park and Bongkun Shin (amazing name by the way), the B Scanner makes the whole transaction of swapping and storing business cards much easier.

Business cards have become less of a way to disseminate contact information and more about brand extension, so it makes no sense to spend so much money on them only to be thrown out after someone transcribes all the relevant information into an address book. The B-Scanner helps with both aspects.

Just slide in any standard size card and an image capture is kept in memory. You sort and thumb thru each card via a jog dial and everything shows up beautifully on an OLED screen, sharp enough for small text.

Apparently this is still a concept, but I would definitely be up for giving it a try. More images after the jump.

This is just craziness…video games this amazing on a cell phone. Wow!

I can’t even imagine what this is going to look like as a finished product.

If they can make this thing silent, can you imagine something like this coming around the corner?  I know I’d piss myself…

Famed architect Renzo Piano has built the greenest museum on Earth in San Francisco’s Golden Gate Park.

My love of Nike Dunks has been well documented. Now Nike Sportswear has taken the aesthetics of the Dunk and turned it into a thumb drive.  The thumb drive is offered in two colorways, white and black and red and blue. Not sure yet what the technical capabilities of this thumb drive are yet, but I love the concept and I think I’m gonna have to scoop one up. How great to be able to pull this bad boy out in the middle of a meeting? More pics after the jump.

This is what I want to happen when I open packages from now on!

I’m a Blackberry dude at heart. They just seem to work best for me. However, this new Nokia is pretty ill. It comes with a carbon upper, a sapphire screen (that sounds cool) and some other high end features. Only thing is this little beauty is a Euro only edition, which pretty much leaves me out. So sad…

From being paralyzed to mating… not too shabby even if the technology isn’t that advanced.
