Warcraft skills saved a boy and his sister
A 12 year old kid from Norway and his sister had an encounter with a Moose. Drawing from what he learned in the World of Warcraft (WoW) game, he first “taunted” the Moose, creating a diversion so that his sister could run away. Then he feigned death until the Moose lost interest and ran home. He learned both tactics in WoW.
Conclusion: the parents will have a hard time to get him off the game now…

Now here’s a mouse that is different from what you normally get on the market - the Space Navigator doesn’t even look like one to begin with. This 3D mouse enables you to pan, zoom, rotate and perform other tricks that a standard mouse cannot. Features include pressure sensing technology that enables the controller cap to become part of your virtual extension - you will be able to perform different functions by pushing, pulling, twisting or tilting the cap a fraction of an inch. Naturally, an increase in pressure will result in a faster speed and vice versa. This $59 mouse won’t be any good in the gaming arena, but it does sound like an interesting peripheral to have for those involved in heavy duty 3D work.
This unique Driverless Webcam definitely takes the road less traveled with its design. You won’t need any driver to get going with this, and being covered with gold paint definitely adds to its unique appeal. Performance-wise, this doesn’t have much to shout about but it ought to do enough for the everyday Joe with its 640 x 480 pixels at 30 fps and the ability to capture 1.3 megapixel stills. The inclusion of an adjustable brightness lamp allows you to use the Driverless Webcam whether day or night. Pick up this nifty little desktop addition for $11.67 apiece.
Messiah Entertainment has rolled out the darklite integrated lightbar for the PS3, providing a blue light effect that seems to be the in thing these days. Designed to look as part of the PS3 console, you will be able to adjust just how bright the blue light LEDs glow. Why not pimp your PS3 with a little mod at the relatively affordable price of $14.99? At least the Wii won’t be the only kid on the block with a blue glow…
The Voiscan device is not only capable of scanning page after page of text, it features the ability to translate the scanned words into a spoken language of your choice. Granted, the translation probably won’t be tense and word perfect, but then again it is better than grasping at straws especially when you are in a foreign land with nary a familiar face (or accent) in sight. The Voiscan is tipped to target frequent travelers as well as the visually impaired when it is released sometime in 2008.
The 103 CompUSA stores will close right after the holidays. The computer retailer can’t keep up with the competition from both retailers and e-tailers although it tried to improve its business by providing some business services.
