LEGO image leaks are about as common as ticks on a dogfish, yet this Eurobricks forum post features what appears to be the first 'official' images of the LEGO mystery set 10131. So far LEGO has remained very hush hush about the contents of this set, but according to the latest images it appears it will include Darth Vader's TIE, possibly two standard TIE Fighters, and TIE Fighter (Drone?) from the Rogue Squadron video game. While we look forward to official confirmation from LEGO, it seems we can at least pencil this in as mystery solved.

Rio Carbon: 5GB iPod Mini Fighter

Rio Carbon: 5GB iPod Mini Fighter 08/02/2004 08:31 AM

As we talked about this weekend, Rio has announced at least one new player, an update to the Rio Nitrus called the 'Rio Carbon,' a 5GB hard disk-based MP3 player with a killer 20-hour battery life (if that's the sort of thing that slays you; the iPod mini does about 8 to 10 hours, for comparison). Interestingly, the Carbon also has support for Microsoft's new DRM platform, Janus; to my knowledge it's the first player that has.

The Rio Carbon should be available late August and will retail for $250. Now where's the Rio Chroma announcement?

The Austral-Asian Strike Fighter

The Austral-Asian Strike Fighter 08/08/2004 02:05 PM
The Australian Defence Force must defend and project across an air-sea gap. This requires long range autonomous strike weaponry. The Joint Strike Fighter does not solve this issue and detrimentally places added pressure on Australia's limited force of aerial refuelling assets. The world's defence manufacturers are not creating strike platforms that solve Australian needs. For this reason, Australia needs to look to other nations with similar defence needs. In this case, Japan, South Korea and Taiwan all face defending an air-sea gap. Australia should enter a partnership with these nations to create a strike fighter that satisfies the strategic needs of defending an air-sea gap. The benefits of such a partnership will be many.

The Return of Magnus, Robot Fighter

The Return of Magnus, Robot Fighter 04/21/2004 04:55 PM
In Feburary, 1963, long before Neo took on the machines of the Matrix, Magnus, Robot Fighter appeared in the comic book world. Raised apart from humans by rogue robot 1A, Magnus learned amazing martial arts skills that allowed him to smash evil robots with his bare hands. He also possesed a special brain implant that allowed him to interface with and decode robot-to-robot communications. For 46 issues Magnus fought machines and human over-dependence on them. Magnus stood out as one of the few science fiction comics among the dominate super hero genre. Now, thanks to a deal with Simon and Schuster's iBooks, Magnus is coming back in the form of graphic novels.

Bluetooth 09/14/2004 07:24 AM

Momodesign, maker of all sorts of middle-to-high-end automotive and cycling parts has revealed their new Bluetooth Motorcycle Helmet, the result of a collaboration with Motorola. And while the technology itself isn't especially notable - it is just a Bluetooth headset, after all - I think the helmet design is just lovely. I'm a huge fan of open-face helmets, even if they aren't as safe. Jaw-droppingly unsafe, you could say.

And if you're taking a call on the helmet and have stopped riding, the headset detaches and can be worn in a neck loop. Now I just need to get a bike.

It must have been a hard life for the Imperial TIE Fighter Pilot. Not only did today’s addition to the Vintage Photo Archive have to live without a name (or face for that matter) of his own, he had to haul butt in a fast moving ball with two huge targets mounted on its sides and try making it through a battle without the luxury of shields of any kind. On a plus note, he did get to blow up defending a giant space orb of evil that, by design, tends to be built specifically to be inevitably destroyed by upstart rebels...
