If storage is more important to you than speed, there’s a 320GB hard drive from MCE technologies that might help. The performance is lower because the drive spins “only” at 5400rpm versus 7200rpm for faster laptop drives, or 15000rpm or more for desktop computers.
The real question that I have is this: would you bother to open your MacBook and change the drive yourself? I wonder if MacBook users shop a lot in the after market segment. Finally, there are plenty of other 320GB droves out there, but this one is marketed to the MacBook crowd.

LiveScribeI published yesterday a long article about the best gadget of DEMO: the LiveScribe PulseSmartpen.

Tokyo-based weather forecasting company Weathernews, Inc. is currently working on a Pollen Robot that comes in the form factor of a ball, housing complex electronics within to monitor the pollen situation in the upcoming hay fever season. Each of these Pollen Robots weigh 1 kg and has a diameter of 30cm, complete with a pair of eyes that glow according to the level of Japanese cedar and cypress pollen in the air (white, blue, green, red and purple). Pollen Robots are capable of sending minute-by-minute reports to the Weathernews HQ over the Internet, where collected data will be analyzed to form the online pollen map. Interesting.
