Following the pink edition of PSP, Sony Europe announced its plan to release the Pink version of Playstation 2 (PS2) on November 8th in Europe. Obviously aimed at girl gamers, this gaming console looks funky and fashionable though. To match the pink console, two pink analogue controllers and a pink 8MB memory card are included as well. |

Sorry if this sounds too harsh, but isn't this portable gaming device dead already? Well, not really dead, but with the price cut rumor, I'm sure we all know what's really going on with the PSP. And the new pink version of PSP could probably be a proof that less and less real (read: boys) gamers want to have this gaming device for their Christmas present. Priced at £169.99, the Pink Sony PSP comes with a pink case, exclusive Pink UMD video, and even a pink memory card. Just shoot me if I'm wrong saying that Sony is targeting girl gamers right now, trying to boost its sales and beat the rising star's Nintendo DS. However, the company forget to make the bundled headphone, pouch, and wrist strap in pink, and give the white-colored version instead. Sony PSP Pink Edition will be available starting from October 27th in UK. |

David Gu has designed a handy kitchenware which will eleminate the boreness of cooking. Okay, not all people dislike cooking, but I'm sure there are some outthere. So, with this innovative "Cooking Audio Player", you can now boil the water, slice the onion, cut the salmon, and stir the mix with fun as it wil entertain you with music. In the concept, this "futuristic" kitchenware connects to your home PC, media center, and other portable media players through advanced wireless transmission technology in the future. But we've seen several home theater or speaker dock with wireless connection lately, so I guess it won't take much time in the future to bring the Cooking Audio Player to the production line. On the top, there's a flat stereo speaker which deliver the sound to the kitchen room. Users can control the music though the provided touch buttons. And apart from the entertainment purpose, the Cooking Audio Player doesn't forget its purpose as a kitchenware by offering a room for keeping daily-cooking-ingredients container for garlic, onions, lemons, gingers and etc. Maybe it's just me, but I do expect a "futuristic" cooking functionalities as well. |
