A-DATA has a very cool portable hard drive called the SH93. It’s both durable and water-resistant.

Sprint and LG is apparently coming out with a sequel to the Lotus. Not much in the way of changes so far.

Verizon has come out with the Razzle. Is it candy or is it gum?

So, as the illustration shows, a drawing of a cheetah chasing a motorcyclist in the desert produces a somewhat realistic photo of a cheetah chasing a motocross rider going through the desert.

By the way, the user got to pick what cheetah, what rider, and what desert he or she wanted to use.

This technology comes from several universities working together, and I think it is the wave of the future, baby!
