This isn’t the first time we have seen photos of the new HTC Holiday, back in August we saw some initial photos of the Holiday, and then some more later in the month, but these are probably the clearest photos we have seen so far.
The guys over at the BGR have obtained a new bunch of photos of the
HTC Holiday, and we get a good look at the device as well as some more
information on its specifications.
As you can see from the photo, the HTC Holiday is running Android
2.3.4 Gingerbread, and it is headed to AT&T, and will be a 4G LTE
enabled device.
Other specifications on the HTC Holiday include a dual core 1.2GHz
processor, a 4.5 inch qHD display and an 8 megapixel camera, we still
don’t have any information on when the HTC Holiday will be available.
Head on over to the Boy Genius Report for lots more photos of the HTC Holiday.

It’s a mighty fine piece of work. last time a Pip-Boy 3000 was featured here at Geeky Gadgets
it was basically a modded iPod Touch. This is different though. A
semi-instructional vid is available on Youtube (watch it after the jump)
and the mad skills it took to build a knock off like this is
commendable. User MyMagicPudding, we salute you! If only there was a
wasteland where you could actually take the real life Pip Boy 3000.
Take note that what’s pictured above is an in-game Pip Boy 3000. For
the actual build, check the video down south and marvel at the accuracy
of MyMagicPudding’s craftmanship.
Not to come off as too pedantic but for those not in the know the
Pip-Boy is a mainstay in the Fallout series, being a gadget familiar to
Vault Dwellers, and is basically an interface that lets the player
improve their game. It’s also a huge repository for all th

The majority of new cars on the road today come with LED headlights,
they are more efficient and brighter than the
older headlights, but now
BMW are testing out a new type of headlight which they are hoping will
replace LED
headlights.
BMW are currently working on developing Laser headlights, which could
be up to 1,000 times brighter than the existing
LED ones and also use
less energy.
According to BMW the new laser headlights will be much brighter, and
also ‘very pleasant’ to they eye so I guess we
don’t have to worry
about being blinded by these new laser headlights.
There are no details as yet when BMW will introduce the laser
headlights to their production cars, but we can expect to
see the first
ones some time within the next few years.

panel transforming it into a glasses-free 3D display. The sheet has been
developed for Sony’s Vaio VPCSE1Z9E (S series), as an optional extra.
