Clonus (AKA Parts: the Clonus Horror) was released on DVD today. This ultracheap 1979 sci-fi thriller is about a compound where clones are raised, unaware that their purpose in life is to provide harvested organs (more detail here). MST3K sent it up, the Onion sneers at it, but this NY Times review (reg. reqd., scroll down) is respectful. You can rent it now, or you can wait until July for the megabudget, Michael Bay-directed version of the same damn story.

Ca mera Phones Help Buyers Beware

"During the past six months, no fewer than four software firms have released applications to help consumers turn their camera-equipped mobile phones into personal bar-cod e scanners....

Although the technologies are still in their early stages, the trend is rekindling talk of a shopping revolution.

'Clearly, this is going to change the way people think about shopping,' said Olivier Attia, chief executive of New York-based Scanbuy, one of the firms specializing in bar-code-scanning software.

For example, 'with a camera phone that is also a bar-code scanner, you can go into a store like Barnes & Noble, take a photo of the ISBN number on a book and instantly receive a coupon offering the book for 30 percent less at Amazon.com,' said Attia." [Wired News]

Of course, I think the better example is that a person could scan an ISBN and automatically request the title from their local library!

Return of Tetris Shelves

Return of Tetris Shelves 04/19/2005 08:47 AM

When I saw the Tetris shelves on Kotaku yesterday I called Brave Space design to see how much they wanted for them. They told me they weren't selling those pine models, as they were just a prototype, but had just completed their first production model, which as you can see from this exclusive picture, is much more swanky—the outside is walnut and the insides are ash.

My wallet was about to be chiseled from its ham hock when they informed me of the price: around $7k for 10 pieces. And if you don't stack them correctly, they disappear and you have to buy them all over.

1GB SD Cards to Hit Shelves this Month!

1GB SD Cards to Hit Shelves this Month! 01/08/2004 07:22 PM

SD Cards Hit a Higher Capacity

"SanDisk has begun production of SD memory cards with a 1GB capacity and expects them to begin appearing on store shelves before the end of this month.

SD, or Secure Digital, cards are widely used in devices such as digital still cameras. The higher capacity will mean users with large data storage requirements won't have to carry around as many cards. The 1GB card should be able to accommodate around 2000 images taken at 1,600-pixel by 1,200-pixel resolution. It should also be able to store about nine hours of MPEG4 video or 16 hours of MP3 audio.

The company expects the cards to cost around $500, says Bob Goligoski, a spokesperson for SanDisk." [PCWorld.com]

They can't come down in price fast enough for me. I'll probably have to give in and get a 256MB card in the interim, because the 1GB version costs almost as much as the Treo 600 itself!

Human embryo cloning OKed in UK

Human embryo cloning OKed in UK 08/11/2004 08:13 AM
Rich sez, "British scientists have been granted permission to clone human embryos for medical research, it was announced today."

They plan to duplicate early-stage embryos and extract stem cells from them which can be used for radical new treatments.

The embryos are destroyed before they are 14-days old and never allowed to develop beyond a cluster of cells the size of a pinhead.

The green-light was given by the research licensing body the Human Fertilisation and Embryology Authority after weeks of discussion.

Dr Miodrag Stojkovic, from the university’s Institute of Human Genetics, said: “We are all set up and ready to go immediately as soon as the paper work is sorted out.
