Orchestra by Nintendo DS and iPhones

One intrepid DJ has created a cool mix of music using the Belkin Rockstar multi headphone splitter. He used a Nintendo DS Lite running Electroplankon, a DSi running Korg DS-10, an iPhone, an iPod Touch and a Kaossilator. Well not much to say about results but the possibilities are endless! You could set up a whole series of ipods at a party! The splitter comes at a price of $20 and it is certainly better than emptying your pocket on an expensive mixer.

Apple’s patent application hints at iTunes Kiosk

7-patent-2_01.jpgIf Apple decides to work more on the recent patent application, we could be soon seeing Apple iTune Kiosks for local and remote media downloading in public areas such as airports, malls, hotels and even public transportation. Consumers who are always on the run can browse selective and popular media from these kiosks. They can then purchase and download the content into their handsets after swiping their credit card. It does sound simple but there are drawbacks like connectors could be worn out, tampered and Wi-Fi spots could get hacked or overloaded.

Call of Duty on the Silver Screen

Activision is really busy these days. They are negotiating to translate Guitar Hero game into a reality TV series and also they have other surprises up their sleeves. The video game company has set up deals for a World of Warcraft picture and even a Call of Duty movie! The game series seeks to represent American, Soviet and British perspectives, a blend which is unusual in typical war pictures and could make for an interesting underlying premise to the adaptation. Well, whether this will sky rocket weekly earnings at the box office or will it be a nuke disaster is yet to be seen. But since I am a diehard fan of Call of Duty, I am certainly hitting the theaters for this movie! Wonder if anyone will be interested in filming the StarCraft game?

The soon to be released 2009 iPhone will have a compass which means there will be a magnetometer built in. This and the GPS would make the navigation a piece of cake. This might not be as exciting as the rumored feature of a video camera feature on the iPhone 2009 but it will be cool with so many gadgets on a single phone!
