Is Microsoft's Kinect the future of gaming?

Ten days after Microsoft released its new type of gaming product there has been a rather "mellow" reaction only about one million copies have been sold which if you compare it to all the people in the world who actually own a Xbox it is rather... sad?
This is in fact one of the most amazing products released by a company in a really long time (I mean there is no controller!) and the last thing I am trying to do is criticizes it, all I am saying is that it is rather sad to see that not a lot of people are interested in this type of product. But hopefully it will catch on while people upload their own personal Kinect fail videos on to you tube.

Weekly Mash Up!

Here is this week mash up of all things tech and news and more!

Android now has 100,000 Apps and over 1 billion Apps downloaded
   Is Android catching up to Apple in the amount of Apps? well no not really the App store beat 100,000 Apps back in November of 2009 and the App store has over 3 billion Apps downloaded but Android is certainly catching up!

Looks like Facebook users found a new gaming addiction this time its called "FrontierVille"
   As of today over 20 Million have started to play the new online sensation which is called FrontierVille. It's still got a way to go to catch up to the other online gaming addiction FarmVille but hey it's made by the same company(zynga)
 so more is good right?

BP stopped the leak!
  Well for now anyways they are still testing it to see if its going to hold but for now at least as of 4:13-4:14 PM Eastern time they put what looks like a huge weight on it. Check out the video and watch how exactly they stopped it: 




Hulu Plus exclusive on PS3 for awhile..
  Well it's official Sony has accomplished getting Hulu plus for the PS3 exclusively for 1 year! Adding to this just to clear out a rumor you do not have to have a playstation Plus account which you have to pay $50 for to have it running on your PS3. So congratulations Sony but we still are not getting a lot of reviews about it so if you have or have seen it in the works comment and tell us about it!
Here is a pic for people who have not seen it yet:



And to close of this post here are a few things I found interesting on Amazon:

iPhone carrier unlock coming soon?

   Even more news from Apple is coming in and apparently this time the iPhone 4 is closed to being unlocked but not just yet. According to the video the hacker (or unlocker whatever you may call them) is saying the unlock is still really buggy and it's still a work in progress but soon all iPhones will be able to be jailbroken and unlocked to run with any cell phone company which uses sim cards. But do you really want to jailbreak you iPhone and risk the chance of loosing your warranty or do you want to wait and pay for the official unlock? Well the choice is yours but whatever you may choose you will still have to wait a significant amount of time. Watch this video for more information:

A new Apple device coming soon? [RUMOR]

According to a Taiwanese website there are leaked pictures of a new Apple touchscreen device that is only 3cm square inches (1.18 in). Is it fake? Is it real? Well we are not exactly sure just yet but considering the sites past record (leaking the white iPhone 4) it looks kinda promising. So in the future days we will hopefully be seeing a new device maybe a iPod nano or a new shuffle- We don't know yet but here are two pictures so you can drool over whatever it is:

The future of Flash in 3D?

Actually Adobe itself admitted that it is working on a 3D flash player we still don't know how this is exactly going to work but this is going to be a amazing technology that will throw us into the future. The idea is going to be coming to the table in October and we don't know how long it is going to take to actually come to the rest of us to use. Hey if Adobe comes out with this product and it actually works its really going to be amazing next thing  human kind needs to discover- 4D (wonder how thats going to work).

iPod touch with camera coming this fall? [RUMOR]

    Well this is still a rumor but coming this fall there just might be a iPod touch with a front and rear facing camera. Despite the rather ugly looking image remind  your self that this is not the finished product! These images turned up on some random Chinese websites, but the images have also been backed up by an UK retailer John Lewis who also said a major iPod touch refresh will be coming this September. He also mentioned that the new iPod touch will match the iPhone's new features including Face time support, a gyroscope, and a 5-mega pixel camera with HD video editing.

Weekly Mash Up!

Introducing the weekly mash up, on a random day every week we will post a mash up of different mini reviews/gadgets/news etc. These can be polls or they can just catch you up with the news! Here is the first, enjoy!

iPhone/iPod touch and iPad just might make other handheld game systems extinct.

Consider this for one second... is it easier to play games on an PSP or Nintendo DSi or is it easier to play a game on your iPod touch or iPhone? (that's if you have one) Experts are already saying that in the short future all other hand held game systems are just a bit too complex for the rest of us to play on but the iPod touch and iPhone makes playing games easier and more interactive. In the end the decision is completely up to you but more people are buying iPhone's and iPod touch's just because of the fact that they can do more than an hand held button pressing game system.

Are we forgetting about the oil spill?
Well the oil spill has been going on for a while and if you watch the news every day or even every other day you should know that there has been less and lesser (if that's a word) news or even talk about it. So are we or not?

Is Android the new Windows of mobile devices?
Think about it Android is just like windows they sell there OS to different companies (like HTC or Motorola to name a few) to put in there products which is almost exactly like Windows. So are Android users facing the same issues as Windows users are? Cheap prices on some amazing products on Amazon I suggest buying:
