Simpsons “Multi-Faceplate” Introduced…

Posted by tifutu

“Solutions 2 Go, a product manufacturer based in Ontario, Canada, has signed a licensing deal with 20th Century Fox to create video-game gear branded with “The Simpsons” themes. Among the products the company is releasing is an Xbox 360 “multi-faceplate,” which is different because it enables the user to choose from six themed graphics. The faceplate comprises two halves that can be separated; the user then selects which of the graphics to use, puts it between the plastic layers, snaps them together and places the faceplate onto the console in the normal manner.

As shown below, the graphics include two different versions of Bart skateboarding, Homer rappelling down the side of a building on a rope of sheets tied together and Mr. Burns being…well, Mr. Burns.”

The thumbs should be up soon guys…

Pretty innovative idea I think, I’m not really one to chop and change faceplates myself, but i must say, sporting homers fat belly on my power button sounds pretty tempting…

Google phone? No, not really..

Lately I have noticed a lot of gossip on a few websites mentioning a “Google phone”, sadly after doing some research I found the following on Google’s own blog. They are rather creating a framework for newer phones that will be a “new mobile experience for users”. Google also anounced that they will be releasing an SDK within the next week.. I’ll keep you posted with any new developments on Android. Read what Google has to say below..

Despite all of the very interesting speculation over the last few months, we’re not announcing a Gphone. However, we think what we are announcing — the Open Handset Alliance and Android — is more significant and ambitious than a single phone. In fact, through the joint efforts of the members of the Open Handset Alliance, we hope Android will be the foundation for many new phones and will create an entirely new mobile experience for users, with new applications and new capabilities we can’t imagine today.
