Remember Star Wars’ Princess Leia’s hologram communication with Obi-wan? Yeah, that was like more than 20 years ago. Now that technology is not science fiction anymore.
Cisco just unveiled their newest product On-Stage TelePresence Holographic Video Conferencing. It’s very cool and it brings out the inner geek in us.
You have to really watch this video to believe it!

Check out the video!

Sounds really cool! Can’t wait to be a tester.

Dell vs. Apple: 10 Years Later

I’ve used both Apple and Dell. As a consumer, I’d go with a Mac (simplicity sells). On the corporate side, I’d go with a Dell (Apple isn’t as seriously focused as PCs when it comes to business applications).

At CAD $799, this is obviously over-priced. Apple’s got to be kidding eh? This is exactly what happens when there’s little competition on the market.
And finally, Google acquires Jaiku

Top of the tech news this week
1. Halo 3 pocketed $170M in 24 hours

I still refuse to play halo! Send me an XBOX360 + a 50″ LCD TV and I’ll think about it.

That also makes me wonder, what the hell is Blizzard doing? Where is Starcraft 2? I thought I heard a Marine say “Hell, it’s about time!”. Different timezone perhaps? Argh!

2. New Palm Centro becomes a reality

This baby will sell on the streets on October 14 for $99. Palm struggles to impress with a good-priced smart phone, and almost everyone is getting an iPhone for $300 more.

3. Exploding Chocolate bar, spy gadget of WWII

Yes! Oh no. Don’t you dare eat this yummy bar. Unless you want to see your maker.

iCache is the future of wallets. No more credit cards, debit cards, loyalty cards, health card, parking card, and many more in the near future. Near future maybe sooner. Like 2009.

This small gadget mimic all your cards, secures them and gives you one thing money can’t buy - peace of mind.
Here’s how it works:
- users register their cards on iCache website, then loads it into your iCache gadget
- when you want to use it (pay for something), you activate iCache with your fingerprint with its built-in biometric reader
- use the interface to scroll to the list of cards you have registered
- choose one and caching! a iCache plastic card pops-out loaded with a one-time use of your chosen card
- pop-it back and the card data is gone
Can’t wait to have it!
