Should You Buy the New iPhone: A Checklist

iphone_blog.jpg

There was plenty of excitement yesterday with the pocket protector set about the shiny new handset to be squeezed from the loins of Apple. But all that hype has a lot of people wondering whether they should finally plunk down the cash for sweet touchscreen action. Don't worry though, below is a short checklist that will give you a definitive answer.

Wii Fit Racecars Are Faster, Better Than You at Yoga

wii_fit_car_1.jpg

Wii Fit and I have an interesting relationship. Sometimes I like it because I feel like it's helping me get slightly more flexible, but sometimes I want to fire it out the window and down onto the sidewalk for reminding me that I have the physique of a panda bear with a desk job and a bum knee. But the marketing blitz for the little balance board that could is in full-effect, including Wii Fit-themed cars in both the Indy 500 and the NASCAR Coca-Cola 600. It seems like a Mario Kart Wii theme would've been more appropriate, but anything that encourages racing fans (myself somewhat included) to shake off a day full of greasy food and exhaust fumes with a little pilates is probably a step in the right direction.

Hands On: Creative's Vado Does Video For Cheap

vado_blog_1.jpg

The fine folks from Creative stopped by yesterday with a sack full of their new video cameras and, with the help of a flashbang and some tear gas, we were able to grab one to screw around with. Setting it up took all of 30 seconds and was easy enough that anyone with at least one good eye and a blunt object with which to jab buttons should be able to figure it out. The interface is extremely bare bones, which means that when a fat guy starts falling down, you won't have to change your settings to capture it. It's light, relatively small and the battery is removable, all of which makes its $99 price tag seem like a hell of a bargain. Plus, the footage looks decent, especially when it's uploaded to Youtube of Photobucket, which the included software makes incredibly easy. The internal storage holds 2 hours of lower quality video or one hour of the good stuff, which should be more than enough to keep your Youtube RSS feed annoying your friends for weeks to come.

Impulse Buy: Oakley's Flying Tiger Line

Even if you didn't spend the entire winter doing sit-ups like you promised yourself you would, that doesn't give you a free pass to rock the same boring summer gear you've had since middle school. Oakley's Flying Tiger collection is named after a squadron of elite WWII fighter pilots otherwise known as the 1st American Volunteer Group. They pay tribute to the fearless flyers with a whole line of clothes, including T-shirts, hoodies, sandals, boardshorts and, of course, sunglasses, all tricked out with a boss checkerboard pattern and some mean-looking designs. Check out the link for more photos or head over to Oakley.com to get yourself some.

Flying Tigers Gascan Sunglasses $110

The 2009 Ferrari California Looks Great Topless

ferrari_california_blog_1.jpg

It's not going to be officially unveiled until the 2009 Paris International Car Show, but the company often refered to as, sigh, "the prancing pony" has released photos and info about their new ride. The California comes with a 4,300 cc V8 engine and a 7-speed dual-clutch so, even though it has a folding hard top, it still goes from 0-60 in under four seconds. That's fast enough to seriously mess up the carefully sculpted hair of the guys rich enough to afford one. There's no word on pricing, but unless you were in on The Italian Job, you probably don't have enough Euros to afford one. More photos after the link.
