There was at least one story floating around the ether relating to a Mac Book Air user scratching his arm with the sharp side of his notebook. Looking at this picture, I can’t help but thinking that he would have suffered major blood-loss if the same thing happened with the Dell Adamo XPS.

They managed to shave the notebook down to as thin as can be practical (thinner perhaps?), given the amount of space either side of the ports. At its thickest point, the Adamo XPS measures 9.99mm. I am intrigued, but need to see specs and see a price. [Dell via CG]

It’s Father’s Day again and you are here because you have no idea what to get your old man (or the father of your children) for this special day that comes only once a year. The problem is further compounded if your old man happens to be a geek and who as a result probably does not care for sports memorabilia of any description.

You have been debating getting him yet another tie, but you suspect that he just won’t like it. Your suspicions are correct, he will hate it because most ties suck and will just remind him of the corporate grind that he is forced to suffer through five days a week or more.

Fortunately, your quest for a better Father’s Day gift has led you here. Our list of acceptable gifts has been compiled by two fathers, both of whom concur that any item on the list would make either of their days.

While batteries are not normally something that one gets all warm and tingly over, Energizer is doing something interesting with their Energi To Go charging line. They seem to be getting serious about making stuff other than disposable batteries, which we all know are evil. (more…)

There has been a bit of talk on potential new Apple “Brick”. More than one blogger suggesting that Apple might be planning a new low-cost desktop; something that would knock some of the stuffing out of the low-cost Hackintosh products that have been hitting the market. I disagree with this theory, and am thinking more along the lines of the Gigaom projection, for the simple reason that there is already a Mac Mini – there is no place for a lighter Mac desktop; and any performance boost that they could give the Mac Mini wouldn’t really constitute a new product. I think Apple’s new product will be an affordable, mid-spec home theater PC (HTPC) for masses, that will replace the lackluster Apple TV.

The Sony Vaio TT, or a variant of it has been floating around here in Japan for sometime, however, its latest incarnation, which has made it Stateside is a little bit more exciting than the TTs of yore. This thing weighs in at slightly less than the Mac Book Air, yet comes with an integrated optical drive (which has the option of being upgraded to Bluray. You can also opt for a dual channel 256GB solid state drive with RAID support. Features include an 11.1 inch screen, Centrino 2 processor and integrated Sprint EV-DO.

Not a bad little package, a little bigger than the web books that have been proliferating these days, but with a whole lot more functionality.

Price: $2,000-2,750 [Sony via Acquire]
