Large Solar Plush Calculator

We’ve all had that moment when we’ve been punching number after number into the calculator, that we all wish we could just curl up with it and go to sleep.  Well, you’ve at least gotten so bored that you wished all of those buttons didn’t leave a weird pattern on your forehead when you pass out on it.  Luckily someone has created a solar calculator for such situations.  Sure, 9” by 9” isn’t the most portable thing in the world, but it’s so soft and squishy.  You can purchase the green and white calculator for $19.99.

Project Natal vs. PlayStation Move

Microsoft has generated some big buzz with the revelation of Project Natal, a new camera-based system that requires no controller, just the movement of your body to function. And Sony officially announced PlayStation Move, a controller setup that utilizes a camera and a remote-like controller to interact with the screen.

I kind of prefer the project natal, i think it going be a must for home entertainment. I like the way the user interact with the console such as using voice to select movie and answering the question. But by using our whole body movement to play game (Action game) may tired our body fast. If not careful enough while playing fighting game can get one injure. So i think it may not be possible to play game like Halo or Battlefield unless you train yourself like SOF. As for PlayStation Move, since it only a short video so not much detail was provided. But seem to resemble Nintendo Wii.
