Ray sends us the scoop on the CVS disposable video camera- The king of the one-time digital camera hacks/analysis finally got his hands on a CVS Camcorder on Friday, the 24th via someone shipping him one FedEx. Within 18 hours, he had slurped the flash memory and has the unencrypted, XVID codec, 320×240, 30fps movies stored in the camera on his computer. Link.
KXploit is out! Linux version is also included. This method DOES NOT require you to swap memory sticks. Please read the included tutorial for instructions. The KXploit tool generates two directories on the single memory stick – i.e.) “DOOM-PSP” and “DOOM-PSP%” – the directory ending in % represents what used to be memory stick 1. Previous how-to. Link. Mac version too.
“The standard Treo 650 doesn’t support Dial-Up Networking over Bluetooth, but Shadowmite figured out that they just hid the option, so he hacked up an un-crippled version. Trevor Harmon shows you how to get DUN over Bluetooth working and now my new PowerBook can get on the net from anywhere!“ For PC owners, see our DUN How-to. [via] Link.
I really like efforts like this- here’s how to get comics on your iPod. William Simons of Clickwheel says: “We’ve just created the world’s first and only desktop application for downloading digital comics to the iPod photo. It’s currently available as a demo version, which you’re free to download from www.clickwheel.net.” [via] Link.
MAKE pal Brendan Dawes is at it again…Following on from my Atari Flash Drive I decided to take the Dremel to another piece of Atari kit – this time the iconic joystick. This is an Atari 4 port USB hub, complete with status indicator LED. It uses a cheap 4 port hub made for laptops which I bought from good old Maplins Link.
MAKE will be giving some fun how-to sessions and attending Gnomedex for the next couple days. Link. Also check out Technorati tags Gnomedex, Gnomedex05 and Flickr photos. Here’s a fun one!
