Memory Reading Hard Drive
06/30/2004 12:37 PM

DriveProVP300_2.jpg imageThe Vosonic X'S-Drive Pro VP 300 is 40GB external hard drive that is clunky, cheap-looking, has a crappy text-only integrated screen, plays MP3s, but not WMA, AAC, or OGG Vorbis, and can only read from one card from its card reader at a time. So why would any photographer want it? Because it's cheap, it does the primary job it was designed to do (act as remote backup for memory cards), and can accept as many additional 2.5-inch laptop hard drives as you want to swap into it, meaning that all other things aside, you can purchase this single $335 drive and continue to upgrade it for only the price of additional hard drives.

Several readers have submitted today's CNN story on Aethon's TUG robots being used at the Magee-Women's Hospital in Pitssburgh, Pennsylvania. The autonomou robots are used to move linens, X-Ray film, food and other materials around the hospital. It's claimed that one robot can replace two or more human hospital workers, paying for themselves in cost savings within three years. The TUG robot is loaded with CAD drawings of the hospital where it will operate and uses dead-reckoning to navigate. IR proximity sensors tracking distances to the nearest wall help adjust for errors. A wifi connection allows the robot operate hospital elevators. It can haul up to 500 lbs. There's also a Slashdot discussion on this one.

Crash


Crash 06/17/2005 03:30 PM

First of all, where did this movie come from? When a reader recommended it to me last week, I'd never heard of it before...I thought he was talking about the Cronenberg film. But it's been out for almost six weeks now and has made $40 million at the box office (on a budget of $6.5 million). Looks to me it's one of those films where Hollywood finally does something right and they don't want to tell anyone about it.

I seem to be on a roll with movies lately...first R evenge of the Sith, then Primer, and now I really liked Crash. Reminded me a lot of Soderbergh's Traffic crossed with P.T. Anderson's Magnolia. At first, Crash seems to be about racism, but I think what Don Cheadle's character had to say in the opening scene is closer to what it's actually about:

I think we miss that touch so much that we crash into one another just to feel something.

He's talking about cars in that scene, but it easily applies to the locks, guns, gated & segregated communities, money, racial epithets, and power structures we see in the rest of the film, all the technology, money, and power that people use to keep themselves safe but really just make things worse. From an interview with director Paul Haggis about the film:

It's an odd life we live in Los Angeles, a city that uses freeways and wide boulevards to divide people by race and class. We spend most of our time encased in metal and glass; in our homes, our cars, at work. Unlike any real city, we only walk where "it's safe"-those outdoor malls and ersatz city blocks we've created to feel like we're still part of humanity, if only humanity could afford to shop where we do. We no longer truly feel the touch of strangers as we brush past them on the street.

Something tells me Jane Jacobs and Jame s Kunstler would love this film.

(Rating: 93/100)

It got hit so hard that the whole front twisted enough to make the right front door unable to open...

Or have they?
Well, reports are out that Microsoft is looking to sell Slate. Looks like the recent cost-cutting measures at Microsoft has now trickled down to this particular product. I wish all the best to the people behind Slate, and hope that the online magazine will not suck after being bought over.
