Maverick Tube Magic D1

The Maverick Tube Magic D1 sounds like a godsend for those that want to rock out without disturbing the neighbours. It’s a digital-to-analogue converter, pre-amp and headphone amp all in one, but takes up about half the space of your average hi-fi amp.

Apple has patented a transforming universal charging dock which can change to accommodate the shape of the object being charged. An Apple patent detailing the ideas, filed in June 2008, has just emerged.
Apple’s idea for the universal iPod/iPhone dock uses an elastic sponge-like substance that conforms to the device. It appears that the substance would retain its shape or be reset using a button on the front of the device.
If Apple launched the universal iPod/iPhone dock, it could spell doom for the thousands of accessory manufacturers who rely on the need for different chargers for different types and generations of iPod.
Given Apple’s customary blanket of secrecy, it’s not clear when or if the universal iPod/iPhone charging dock will be released. We’d certainly be interested in snapping one up.

Halo: Reach anticipation is hotting up with game developer Bungie bunging up a new official Halo: Reach site ahead of the premiere of the next trailer.
Halo: Reach was announced at E3 back in June but won’t reach us until later in 2010. The new website is still quite sparse but there is a brief post discussing the games future:
“Since you’ve got some time to kill between [the premiere of the new trailer] and now, we figured we’d deploy the updated and more official Halo: Reach project page so you can get familiar with the one-stop-shop for all things Halo:Reach-related.”
Expect to see the updated trailer for Halo: Reach hitting the web this Saturday after the Spike Video Game Awards. In the mean time, watch the E3 trailer above to reignite your Halo: Reach-based excitement.
