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

Carbon_main_prod.jpg image

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.
