The Nintendo DS levels up, and phones make kids safer | The Japan Times Online

 



Double vision: Nintendo's two-screened DS is set to become even more of a must-have product thanks to the DSVision, which will allow users to watch videos and read e-books and manga on the portable console. Users simply download the media to their computer, transfer the content to a microSD card, and then load the card into a DS via a custom cartridge. The DSVision set includes a 512-megabyte microSD card, USB card-reader and the cartridge, with AM3 putting the sets on sale in January 2008 for ¥3,980. Downloadable media is set to follow in March in conjunction with e-book distributor Dai Nippon. Of course, sets such as the R4 have allowed DS users to run media and home-brew software for ages — not to mention illegally downloaded games. Whether the DSVision will somehow defy the pirates is yet to be seen.

TRON Clock V2 « The Algorithmist

TRON Clock V2 « The Algorithmist : "I wanted to contrast different implementations of the same concept in the TRON clock, so welcome to V2. My intent in the first version was to always display an analog-style clock with a circular theme and varying background quadrant graphics for the minutes. The former was considered part of the component and the latter was the skin. That’s a pretty narrow view of a skin. What if someone wanted to replace the circular theme with something triangular or square or even a digital display - Sent using Google Toolbar"
