Dell Mini 10 gets six-cell battery option, added pizzazz

Dell’s Mini 10 netbook has been a bit more of a work in progress than some early adopters may have hoped, but it is at least getting increasingly more usable, with Dell now finally offering the oft-requested six-cell battery as a selectable option. That’ll set you back just $30, and should give you a sizable boost over the stock three-cell battery, which is lucky to get three hours on a charge. If you’re looking for a little something extra, you can now also now get the netbook emblazoned with some of the snazzy designs seen on other Dell laptops, although those will set you back up to $60 extra compared to the basic black or white options.

HTC Magic (Sapphire) with T-Mobile USA logo hits the FCC

It’s been just over a month since HTC’s Magic / Sapphire first made its way through the FCC, although without any indication its destiny lied with T-Mobile. Well, it’s back for Round Two, and this time the images clearly have the company’s logo emblazoned at the top, just as it was at MWC when Google was showcasing its offline Gmail, and 7.2Mbps HSDPA. Yep, it’s clearly heading to you-know-who’s 3G network. No “G2″ in sight, so for now we’ll have to wait to see which of the three likely names — or something else entirely — T-Mo decides to run with.

Japanese ‘Yakuza 3′ PlayStation 3 is sexy, in short supply


To commemorate the release of Yakuza 3 in Japan, Sony and Sega are bundling the game with a special edition ceramic white 80GB PlayStation 3, complete with a very detailed dragon decal emblazoned on top. If that wasn’t enough, the pack is being offered for ¥45,980 ($495), which according to Siliconera saves you ¥2,000 ($21.50) than when buying the game and console separate. You can expect that price tag to skyrocket on eBay, though, as only 10,000 of these are being made. Sure, it’s no price drop, but man is it gorgeous.

[CES 2009] Corsair Flash Survivor – Takes A Freezin

Corsair Flash Voyager (Image property OhGizmo!)
By Andrew Liszewski

I reviewed Corsair’s Flash Survivor USB Drive a while back, and of all the tests I did, I never thought to (or had the motivation to) encase it in a giant block of ice emblazoned with the Corsair logo. And it’s too bad too, since it probably would have made for an eye-catching center piece like this one.

And even though the drive was encased in ice, it was still being used to run a Corsair demo on a nearby laptop. Now something tells me a lot of flash-based memory devices would be capable of surviving a similar scenario, but at least Corsair is putting their money where their mouth is. And it makes for an eye-catching demo.
