An interesting mug has been created from the Thinkgeek lab. The idea is pretty similar to the On/Off Mug from Wishing Fish. The mug will turns its color when hot liquid poured into the mug. However, this Thinkgeek version is just too geek. You will immediately see a space intruders battle or Pac-man rush for the yellow dot static image when you pour your hot beverage to the mug! Smart!

Way Smarter Than Your Mug

Take a look at your current mug. Yes, it may or may not contain coffee, but that is probably its most exciting feature… which is frankly pretty darn dull. The Heat Changing Arcade Mugs know if they contain hot coffee and are able to display it graphically… which obviously kicks your mug’s butt as it just sits there doing nothing.
hot mug!

Normally the Pac Boy mug displays an empty maze and the Space Intruders mug displays a blank starry sky. But add some kind of hot beverage and instantly the Pac Boy maze is filled with 8-bit style ghosts and energizers while the Space Intruders shows a retro invaders style battle in action.

Care to get one? These cool heat changing arcade mug is only $7.99 and it’s now available at Thinkgeek. You can actually consider it as a Valentine gift if your soul mate is a geeky type.

Okay, finally I could see the face of the Dell Adamo thanks to PCMag. Well, at first I though Dell Adamo XPS is using some kind of Holographic display because of it’s impossible to stuffed in a display panel in its thickness at just about 0.99 inch only. But I was wrong. There is an actual screen embedded and it’s *really* a thin screen.

Anyway, there was a rumor that Dell Adamo will launch on the same date as Windows 7 that carrying in the price tag of $2000, but it seem it’s just a false rumor. Up to date, Dell haven’t talk much about its availability and price tag. They still keep trying to tease the geeky-minded bloggers and journalists by showing the actually notebook bit by bit, starting from revealing how thin the laptop was.

The most convenient feature that I’ve come to known was the solid aluminum chassis, with the lid getting a heat sensor treatment so you can open up the keyboard just by brushing your fingers across. Clever, I can’t wait to know what is the actual specs for this so called ‘World’s Thinnest Notebook that could Slice Macbook Air into Two‘!
