GBTV #655 (small) | Robomantic, The Movie I was really excited when I first learned about the Robovie-PC, the little Robot with a PC built in.

GBTV #654 (small) | TwitterPeek, Atheros AR6003 Chip, HomeFinder, Remote Controlled Tissue Box We've talked about the Peek before, a device dedicated to email. Now they have the TwitterPeek, completely dedicated to Twitter. The idea sounds great! I'm a Twitter addict, but the only issue is, before purchasing a device, I want to know what the interface is like, and I can't get a good sense of that from the website. The Atheros AR6003 is an 802.11n chip that uses 20% less power than current chips and still delivers 85Mb/s data transfer. If you have people coming to your house ...
