NEW - T3ch H3lp Lite Feed

We all love news n' stuff - but it can feel a bit overwhelming at times, especially when there is so much in one day. It can feel cluttered and confusing with so much on one page. We get it, so what we have done is taken everything you love about T3ch H3lp, and we slimmed it down. We call it "Lite Feed" and we are sure you will like it.

It features everything you see on the front page, and more along with future implementations of some Twitter and Facebook aggregation. It also gives you access to all the other social networks we belong to, as well as page updates. It's available today, so we urge you to go check it out and tell us what you think!

Breaking: LG's WP7S prototype shown on The Engadget Show

Remember when we ran that post about Windows Phone 7 Series design chassis? It appears that the information provided by Microsoft Australia developers Michael Kordahi and Andrew Coates is more reliable than first thought. In it's world premier, The Engadget Show was graced with LG's Windows Phone 7 Series (very early) prototype handset.

Shown in all of it's slide out QWERTY goodness, LG's new handset is just a tad thicker than the iPhone or Nexus One. There are currently dedicated hardware camera, volume and power buttons. Also gracing the device are the standard Windows Phone 7 Series dictated back, home and search buttons. The guys over at Engadget also noted the inclusion of a 5 megapixel camera and a 3.5mm headphone jack. -- Remember that this is an early prototype design, so don't be surprised if it's subjected to change.

The Wii Brings Ghostbusters To A New Level

It looks like all you Ghostbuster fans will be excited for this Wii add-on. The device was created by an obviously obsessed Ghostbusters fan. It works great for the game and it really feels like you have the real device. The speakers within the Wii Remote help the movements sounds real to you and your friends. You can also find a Blue Power Cell on the device that accurately reflects how much power you have left. The proton pack also has a spot on the back for the Nunchuk to rest nicely. Click the photo above to see the rest of the photos including the particle accelerator.

The Evolution of the Mac vs. PC Commercial

 

We all either love or hate the Mac vs. PC ads with John Hodgman and Justin Long. Since May 2, 2006 Apple has released 66 TV spots highlighting everything from virus protection to customer service. Every ad was director by one man, Phil Morrison. In recent months though, it seems Apple has put a halt on these commercials due to the fact that Windows 7 fixes many problems in these commercials. This holiday season was also the first season that Apple didn't run one of these ads in four years. All of this begs the question of whether or not the Mac vs. PC ads are over for good.

Watch -- All 66 ads since 2006

SublimeVideo - Maybe the Best HTML5 Video player coming

We have found it - This could be the best HTML5 video framework coming, which boasts more features than I can type without making my fingers bleed. First lets point out some main features -- Unlike every other HTML5 player, this player supports Firefox 3.6 (which doesn't support HTML5) and also Chrome, Safari and IE with chrome frame installed. It also does a really nice animation/transition when going into full-screen mode and it buffers like a champ! Ever notice when you try to skip ahead a bit on a video in Youtube? Its clunky and slow, in this HTML5 player as soon as you let your mouse go, it starts playing again, so you can scrub through the video with ease.

I highly recommend you check it out as it is also iPhone and iPad compatible, and they have a great demo on their site. Its not available for download yet, but it will be here soon and you need to try it.

Google's Nexus One headed to Verizon?

What can be said about the Nexus One apart from it being one of the best Android handsets available? With that being said, the Nexus One was caught heading through the FCC today. The latest dual-band CDMA variant is most likely headed to Verizon within the next couple of months. 

You may be scratching your head wondering, how we know that this is indeed a later iteration of the Nexus One? Well to put it simply using the label size and the model number, it can be safely assumed that this is indeed the Nexus One.
