The ebook reader from Sony has 500,000 ebooks from Google

Monday, March 23rd, 2009

There is a slight rebound in the vicissitudes of the Sony eBook Reader: Google gave 500,000 ebooks (which are not protected by copyright) are available for free on the Sony eBook Reader. This could be enough to declare that Sony have the largest library, and it is hard to deny that anything is “free” is hard to beat. However, the ebooks will also be available on the Kindle as PDF – free. So while this is great for Sony, it will not allow it to take off compared to the Kindle 2, which costs only $60 more than the Sony eBook Reader, but that includes free access to the internet on Wikipedia and access to more recent ebooks and magazines.

Definitely one of the funniest clocks we have seen so far.

The LEGO safe

Wednesday, November 19th, 2008

That’s a geek thing: the LEGO safe. Ok you’re all thinking: “You can put anything in there and it’s not very safe”. Well, think again.

In short, something where I could put my savings…
