peripherals
We have seen our fair share of Wii peripherals, but the Wii Crossbow actually looks like it could be used by police officials to take down the bad guys. Sure, the ping pong ball tip doesn't look too menacing, but we're sure there's a razor sharp arrow underneath.

Wii Crossbow Has Laser Sight, Tip Covered by Ping Pong Ball
We have seen our fair share of Wii peripherals, but the Wii Crossbow actually looks like it could be used by police officials to take down the bad guys. Sure, the ping pong ball tip doesn't look too menacing, but we're sure there's a razor sharp arrow underneath.

displays
If you can believe the video, it looks like the Asus LS201 LCD monitor is not only scratch-proof, but marker-proor, knife-proof, hammer-proof and crossbow-proof. According to Asus, this Jack Bauer of displays can resist anything thanks to a sapphire glass surface that protects its 1,400x1,050-pixel 20-inch LCD. They may as well have told us that it was made of adamantium, because the last time I checked sapphire glass resists scratching, but shatters under this kind of impact. Whatever it is, it works. Check the Crazy Ivan link for more kinds of display torture. [Foxtrot in Russian - Thanks Jason]

Behold the new UMPC with Menlow, for it will "truly put the full Internet in your pocket"! According to the Intel Ultra Mobile Group Chief Evangelist, that is. And provided you have the pants of Krusty The Clown and are ready to take all kinds of "is that the full Internet in your pocket or are you just happy to see me?" jokes. The most interesting bit from Mark, showing the Compal prototype in Beijing, was his mention of the Ultra Mobile Platform 2008 running Windows, Linux and Mac OS X: More »

Microsoft and LG agreed to a deal that will put Windows Mobile 6, aka Crossbow, onto future LG smartphones. Could this include the upcoming LG Prada phone? Well, considering that we've already seen the Prada's UI in action (narrated by Super Mario himself), maybe not, but the BusinessWeek says that WiMo6 will power LG phones that use touch screens. More info will on this marriage will surface at the 3GSM conference next week. Like we said before, Prada could kill some time before Apple's wunderphone comes out in June. More »

Asus 3G P3xx Rocks Windows Mobile 6, Wi-Fi, Roomy Screen
Unsubstantiated rumors (what else?) from a French Web site point to Asus launching the 3G P3xx, a Windows Mobile 6-based smartphone due in the third quarter. The 2.8-inch LCD screen (which is 0.6 inches bigger than the BlackJack's) isn't touch-sensitive, so that automatically puts it at a disadvantage. More »

Trying to explain the difference between Windows Mobile 5 Pocket PC Edition and Windows Mobile 5 Smartphone edition is like Paris Hilton trying to explain what she does for a living. Good news though, as Microsoft's trying to make it easier on everyone by renaming their WM6 Crossbow editions to Professional, Standard, and Classic. More »
