Fujitsu today unveiled a concept phone they have been working on with DoCoMo called the “Separate Keitai”. The phone can be split into two parts, allowing the screen to be held in one hand and the keyboard in the other. The separating magnetic hinge allows for greater flexibility such as being able to take a call on the keyboard half while looking something up on the screen half. Tuesday, 30 September 2008
Ponoko have developed a great new laser-cutting service called Photomake that lets you transform your drawings into real objects without even leaving the house. The web-based service requires you to upload a clear photo of your drawing for the system to scan, the design will then be laser-cut from a material of your choosing and shipped to your door.

SpaceX today made history with a successful launch of their Falcon 1 rocket. It has set a new record, becoming the first ever privately developed liquid fuel rocket to orbit the Earth. This was the company’s fourth attempt at reaching orbit. The last rocket in August failed with a payload of two NASA satellites and the ashes of 208 people, including those of Star Trek’s James “Scotty” Doohan. Friday, 26 September 2008
Yves Rossy, aka Jet Man, set a new record today with his successful flight across the English Channel – strapped to a jet-powered wing. I knew you could do it Jet Man. The 22-mile trip lasted less than 13 minutes, but with cruising speeds of 125 mph and several hundred spectators in attendance, it must have been exhilerating. Friday, 26 September 2008
Griffin recently released a new iPod dock called Simplifi, which is actually rather useful. It combines an iPod/iPhone charger and sync hub, media card slots and a USB hub all in one elegant device. It’s a simple little gadget, but one that’s sure to tidy up your desk, simplify media management and get rid of a few cables. Thursday, 25 September 2008

Geez, these advertising companies just can’t seem to get it right these days, can they? The new Google G1 phone went official today with a T-Mobile launch in New York and we have the first commercial for it below.
