I found this on the T3 website about doomed bits of technology. Basically some dudes decided it would be an awesome idea to strap some wings to the top of a banged out motor. And it was an awesome idea. Seriously awe-inspiring I think, these are the kind of people we want as inventors, people that are willing to take risks. To act on childish impulses and be brilliant.
Ok, so this didn’t actually work and came to pretty disaterous end, but what if it did?
It would be amazing. Take heed dragons den.

I knew it wouldn’t be long until Nintendo attempted to jump on the 3D bandwagon along with their Playstation and X-Box rivals, but they are by no means rushing into it.
There new product the Nintendo 3DS will be simialir to the previous DS with a few crucial differences, one of which is the aforementioned 3D viewing functions. What puts this above others on the market though is that, reportedly, this device will not need any special glasses to view the 3D in action. How this works I have no idea, but if it does it could revolutionise an already fast developing corner of the market.
Whether it will live up to the hype though will remain to be seen as this won’t be hitting western stores until March next year, and Japan will only see a marginally sooner release of the hand held console in February.
You have peeked out interests Nintendo, but can you really raise the bar?

If you’re still on the fence about whether or not to buy an iPad then we might have found you the perfect convincer for the slim line touch screen essential.
Introducing the iCade. A retro arcade machine replica that doubles up as a stand a port for your iPad. Not only this but, unlike the shocking etch-a-sketch case released last week, this one is not just style over function. That’s right, as well as obviously charging the mini-computer, it also, utilising the iCade app it comes with, transforms your boring, bog standard iPad into a fully functionable arcade. You will be able to download and play all of your favourite classic games such as Pac Man, Space Invaders and Dig Dug, using the authentic arcade joy stick built into the case.
Plus it looks awesome.
