Sony PSP Gets Skype
Sony plans to integrate well known VOIP service Skype into its handheld console( PSP) sometime next month. So yes you will be able to do the usual things you do on skype such as send text messages or make free phone calls with other PSP (or) PC users. Would be even better though if it was the other way round(i.e we all get a free PSP with every download of skype, heh heh)

Flying Car - At the Price Of A Saloon
Have you ever thought to yourself, "Just what the hell am I doing subjecting myself to this kind of bullshit day after day" while making your way through the morning traffic. I certainly have hoping for an answer from somewhere. Well..... My prayers just might have been answered. A team of experts have designed the Personal Air and Land Vehicle (PAL-V) that can operate both on the land and in the air. With foldable helicopter components hidden in the roof and rear the PAL-V can soar upto speeds of 120Mph and does 0-60Mph in 5 seconds. And the best part is it would probably not cost more than an executive saloon.

Mobiado CellPhone - Sapphire Buttons
The Mobiado Stealth is said to combine "aluminum and sapphire crystal in an extreme fashion." The front face of the handset has been machined from a single piece of solid (aircraft-grade) aluminum and then there is a single inlay of sapphire crystal. This makes for a very stiff body, which is then further reinforced by a rock hard ceramic coating. Each button is sapphire crystal and stainless steel too.
In terms of features, you get all the basics covered like a QVGA display, 2 megapixel camera, microSD expansion, stereo speakers, push-to-talk, Bluetooth, music player, tri-band GSM, and high-speed WCDMA 2100 connectivity.
