It’s fairly obvious that the EOS 50D is on its way out into the world, especially considering those pics and specs we just caught wind of. Still, it’s nice to see some decent images of the 15.1-megapixel DSLR, and thanks to a brief Canon Japan website slip-up, we’re able to do just that.

by Darren Murph, posted Aug 24th 2008 at 3:09PM We’re not even going to front — we had all but forgotten about Erector’s Spykee. Granted, it didn’t do itself any favors by showing off at CES and then doing nothing for the next seven months, but we digress. If a pre-order page on Amazon is to be believed, the Spykee Spy Robot should be released on October 15th. It’s sporting a hefty $299.99 price tag and a recommended age of 8-years and up, but we’ll need to see some actual shipment notifications later this fall before we really get our hopes up.

The Nano is one of the more popular iPods to work out with, yes the shuffle is nice, but I hate that I can’t see a list of songs.  Plus it of course holds less than the Nano.  Well to keep the Nano on you while working out you can’t really pop it in your pocket, but there is the option of the armband.  However, armbands can be obnoxious to some people, it’s a preference thing really.  There isn’t any distinct reason that they would be bad, but some do consider them uncomfortable.  Well the iStik offers a new way to keep your Nano on you while doing your daily physical activities.

by Darren Murph, posted Aug 24th 2008 at 11:09AMWe’ve stated it before, but this time you really have ran out of excuses to run. Thanks to Yamaha’s BODiBEAT, you can expect your tunes to automatically sync with your steps, giving you new reason to get out of the house and get to steppin’. Granted, the $299.99 price tag is pretty steep for just 512MB of space and 12-hours of battery life (marathon, what?), but we’re sure there are a few of you out there willing to pay the premium to keep your head nodding perfectly in line with your pace. Oh, and if you completely skipped over the headline, it’s shipping now. Right now.[Via Coolest gadgets]Read PermalinkEmail this10 CommentsFiled under: Portable Audio (Read the full post about ‘Yamaha starts shipping BODiBEAT, workouts and music magically align’…)

by Steven Kim, posted Aug 24th 2008 at 8:06AM With apologies to Shakespeare, something is brewing at VUDU. With CEDIA just around the corner, the company has laid off some of its staff, most notably some of its marketing higher-ups. Additionally, rumors are swirling regarding just about every aspect of the upstart company’s future. CEPro got some talk-time with the VUDU’s national dealer channel manager, and a theme of decreased emphasis on the retail channel seems to run throughout the conversation, punctuated by a end-of-life status on the VUDU X100. Meanwhile, the company is making some CEDIA promises for its custom-install-targeted VUDU XL: more HD content (1,000 titles), more connectivity (HD over component) and lifetime warranties on purchased titles.
