Monday night the Sony press conference was pretty spectacular. Once the new products and services was talked up, Sony played the MIB3 trailer in 3D and then Will Smith came on stage briefly (cool stuff) and I was on the front row. A few moments later Kelly Clarkson made a appearance and sang.

Ever go on a run or for a bike ride and have to stop to dig through your iPod’s playlist? Well, it looks like Apple is aiming to keep your eyes on your exercise (or on the road if you’re driving) and out of your iPod’s menu system.
In a patent application published today, Apple revealed a directional audio interface for iPods. The gist of the technology is that it allows you go navigate your iPod’s library without digging through the menu. [click to continue…]

I thought this was a typo when I first saw it, but nope, it’s for real. Amazon has its own exclusive collection of classical Christmas music, which would normally available for download at $0.99 per song. But you can buy the entire MP3 collection of 99 Christmas songs for $1.99.
I understand that it may be a little early for some of you to put the Christmas music on, but it’s actually been playing in my house since September (no joke) and my wife already has 5 Christmas trees up and decorated. I suspect that I’ll be adding another hundred songs to our vast Christmas library now.
The album is called The 99 Most Essential Christmas Masterpieces, and it’s available here.

This was one of the toys that I really wanted to see at CES 2010. Fortunately, I made it back to the You Rock Guitar booth and got to see the guitar close up. I’ll get right to the point – the You Rock Guitar is definitely more guitar than it is video game controller.
Sure, you can hook it up to your Xbox and play some Rock Band with it; however, you’ll still find it lacking as an in-game guitar. Basically, you just need to finger the right fret for the game and pick the string and you’ll get your note score in Rock Band. Is it an improvement over the button mashing fest? Yes. Have we arrived for music video games? Not quite. [click to continue…]
