Lamborghini Murciélago LP 670-4 SuperVeloce

LP670

For you people out there that always thought the LP-640 was a little bit slow, Well here it is. The The LP 670-4 SuperVeloce.

670 hp and 487 lb-ft of torque all of which was achieved through simply optimizing the engine’s valve timing and tweaking the air intake system.

In other words a kick ass ride for all adrenaline junkies with a thick wallet.

Apple starts its own channel on YouTube

For those of you who have missed it, Apple has decided to start the own channel on YouTube. Which I think is a great idea and it seems like im not the only one. The channel has received an enormous amount of visitors since its launch on September 25.

Currently there are not that many videos online but I hope that there will be more and particularly the old classics that one perhaps have forgotten. To check out there channel click here.

Examples of a classic, you have above, directed by Ridley Scott in 1984.

Review Sony Ericsson Xperia X1

 

I have had the opportunity to test Sony Ericsson’s forthcoming mobile phone Xperia X1 for a couple of days. Here’s my first views on this phone. 

The first thing that strikes me when I got is was how small it was, Sure I had that it was small. But most often thats just talk. But in this case it was really true. If you look at what this phone contains, a full QWERT keyboard and still it is not greater than, for example the Sony Ericsson K850 or Nokia N82. 

I have previously questioned the use of a qwerty keyboard & thought it was unnecessary and, above all very inflexible. But the more I used the X1, the more I liked to have access to the keyboard. 

But what separates this phone compared with many others is that there are so many navigation options, you can use the keyboard to lots of things but then you have a touch screen and an optical mouse that makes you really easy to navigate quickly in the phone. You simply choose the approach that is best for the job you are doing in the phone. Moreover the phone feels very solid and well built. 

Looking at the content we find Windows Mobile, an operating system that I’m not quite fond of and this is not because I am an “apple fan boy” (okay maybe a little). But the biggest reason is that I have always thought it to be very messy and small, hard to navigate simply. Fortunately, Sony Ericsson’s solved this largely with their appearance as the so called X panel. Which means that you can easily navigate between a number of panels or desktops, which then contains different things. For example a desktop that is made for browsing, one that is made for listening to music and so on. 

The only disadvantages I can think of is maybe the format, if you have a big hands. Then it can possibly be a little difficult to use the keyboard, but I’m not sure. Then there is Windows Mobile, most often you only navigate through the X panels. But sometimes you encounter Windows in the background and then it just doesn’t look as fresh. But despite this, it is absolutely thumbs up for this phone.

Peugeot Design Contest 2008

 

The concept is to create a car which is designed to evolve within the cities of the future, whilst retaining the key values of the 21st century, Sounds good to me and looks even better if you check out the finalists here

There is some really cool rides! The question is, will we ever see any of these in production? I for one hope so.

Downhill with style

 

I know this video is a bit old, but I forgot to post about it and I think this video deserves a view. So for all you adrenaline junkies, If you are going to do something crazy do it with style like these guys.

And then there was light

Correct lightning in a room is often the key element to make the room look perfect. I mean there is a reason why you almost never see a room in daylight if you watch a home makeover program or in a magazine. But finding lightning that looks good, does the job well and doesnt cost a billion dollars is hard.

But I really like this Edison Candelier, It has a nice industrial touch and you can arrange it as you like. And its not that expencive, Check it out here.
