Diggnation | Episode 204 – Lasers, Bras and Chocolate Bars

by Jonathan Downin in Misc, TechMay 27th, 2009 @ 2:22 pm

DiggnastionThere is a new app for the iPhone/iPod Touch named Red Lazer that scans barcodes much like an application that was available for the G1 at launch,  The problem with Red Lazer is that it doesn’t really work.  The real problem is the camera in the iPhone doesn’t support short focus.  Hopefully this will be fixed with a hardware revision at WWDC.

The guys are talking about the PS3 slim leak and subsequent cease and desist.  Kevin calls it as being a deliberate hype builder.  Again, we’ll have to to wait until next week’s E3 to see if Sony is going to announce it.

The new Star Trek is out and almost universally loved, much like the original Star Wars.  This is not surprising as a video on College Humor points out how identical the plots are.

Robots that bring you beer, lasers that scan your products, PS3 Slim photos leak, the smartest bra in the World and Star Trek rips off Star Wars.

Runtime – 48:47
