Batman: Gotham Knight: A Video Peek Into Batman Gone Anime
I passed over this the other day, but finally went back to watch it tonight.

I have to say it looks pretty cool, and since the Ainmatrix was way better then the other 2 movies, I might have some cause to be excited. But then again I think I’m well in the “core fans” category.

Hell, I just spent 2 days looking for a Batman wallpaper for my iPod.

I ended up with this one by the way:

Oh and can I say that after looking at a lot of iPhone wallpaper sites, there is a lot of people who apparently like naked women as their phone’s wallpaper.

Really people? Really?

You just have to have a naked woman as soon as you turn your iPhone on?

Better hope it doesn’t ring in a job interview.





No spin: Ars reviews the MacBook Air with solid state drive

No spin: Ars reviews the MacBook Air with solid state drive

This is kinda old, but I’m still surprised how little of an upgrade the solid state HD give you. Definitely not worth they extra $1000, at least in my book.

You would think for that kind of money you would have instant on, and super read times.

The battery is kinda a let down too. I’m surprised just how little the battery life is on the Airs. They seem to top out at about 3 hours. Meanwhile on my Macbook, I can get about 3 1/2 to 4 hours out of a charge. I’m sure the Macbook battery is bigger, but I guess I just expected more out of a SS HD.

Still, it is an exciting technology, and I hope to see it really come into it’s own. If  they can get the price down and figure out the limited write cycle problem, I really think this could be the next big step.

(Oh, and am I the only one who keeps saying, “With Liquid Todd,” every time they hear, “Solid State?”)
