Palm Pre WebOS Homebrewed – Hello World!

webos-hello-worldA leaked WebOS root image was found last night on the web and thanks to this a few homebrewers have been hard at working breaking in to WebOS. The code which can be executed (thanks to the Sprint Nascar application) simply says “Hello World” on the screen which is a common message when homebrewing.

As well as fiddling with running new applications on the Pre the homebrewers also are trying to mess around with the image of the firmware by doing things such as disabling the shutter sound on the camera when the phone is in silent mode. [Read more…]

Nano-Tech Aqua Dance Game

aqua_dance_gameThe Aqua Dance Game uses nano-technology to create hyper-beading water particles. What you do is fill up the tank with regular water, push a pump a few times to pressurise the water. You then turn a lever underneath that controls the size and speed of the water beads and then sit back and watch the crazy water bounce off the nano-tech surface which causes the hyper-bead to happen.

With the reduced friction the natural surface tension of the water takes over to create some unusual liquid dynamics. You’ll find beautiful patterns in the water that are different each time. The ridges and funnels on the surface scatter the water in unpredictable ways as it zooms like quicksilver to the bottom.

Pill MP3 Player

pill-mp3-playerThe Pill MP3 Player measures 2.7 inches long and is 1 inch in diameter. To access the controls of the Pill MP3 the user needs to pull apart the player. To skip tracks the user needs to twist the player either backwards or forwards depending on which way the skip needs to be.

It’s an odd looking MP3 player. Unfortunately there are no details on what it can store, what the battery life is like and how music can be transferred to it. I assume there will be somewhere to connect a USB cable to so you can drag and drop music to internal memory. [Read more…]
