| Sensus Puts Controls on the Back of Your iPhone Posted: 07 Jan 2013 08:21 PM PST One of the reasons I prefer to play games on my iPad is that on my iPhone my fingers often get in the way of the action. Either the controls are too small, the controls obscure what’s going on, my fingers block the action, everything is too small to see, or a combination of any of the above.

| PaperTab Bringing the End Of Paper Closer to Reality Posted: 07 Jan 2013 12:07 PM PST In an amazing effort from Plastic Logic, Intel, and Queen’s University (Kingston, Ontario), we have a prototype tablet that is flexible, thin, and indestructible.

Of course, if there is something we think is particularly awesome, we’ll give it the attention it deserves. Continue reading → |
