Some people like to take a minimalist to their desktop. But full sized keyboards and mice take up valuable desk space and if you’re looking for a way to minimize that, this keyboard/touchpad concept might be a good way to go. It was designed by Min Koo Yeo and is called "Inside Out”.
 

It looks like just a keyboard at first glance, but according to the designer, it is meant to serve dual purposes. One side is a keyboard, the other a touchpad, allowing you to interact with it, perform gestures etc.

Having such a large touchpad could come in handy, but having to flip between the keyboard and touchpad could be a pain in the butt.

Canadians can breath a sigh of relief if they are among those waiting for the Galaxy camera. They can get the Samsung Galaxy Camera starting December 7th. They can get it at either a local Black’s Photography store or the official Samsung store in Burnaby, BC.

The Canadian model keeps the HSPA+ data found in the AT&T version, but the similarity in networks in the north works to your advantage: a data micro-SIM from any of the larger carriers will be enough for some 3G photo sharing.

We don’t have a Canadian price yet, but it shouldn’t be too far from the $500 US price.

I’ve seen some thin flash drives that use USB ports for power over the years. I think the thinnest of ever seen maybe the new intelliPaper flash drive that recently launched. These little flash drives put the USB connectors and the storage chips in a thin piece of paper.

I think it’s impressive that they can fit NAND flash storage and the USB contacts onto a normal piece of paper. This opens the door for people to be able to use the little flash drives as wedding invitations, event tickets, gift cards, and just about anything else you can think of.

The company behind intelliPaper is seeking to raise $300,000 to bring the product to market through Indiegogo. Through ... Read more »
