Magic Mouse owners lusting for multi-finger gestures on a PC can stop wishing. Some good ol' fashioned hackery pulled Windows drivers from the latest Bootcamp update. You can grab them here, report back with results. (Uneasy Silence, thanks Dan!)

We've seen cameras do all kinds of crazy things. DIY 3D photography, augmented reality, and now this demo by Qi Pan shows how an ordinary webcam can model objects in 3D. I'm in no position to discuss the amount of technical wizardry in play here, but I do think the interface is really great. Look at ...

Nobody has any idea if the Nook is actually any good yet, but no matter: It's the perfect holiday gift, in theory! Or at least it was, until Barnes & Noble ran out of them.

When the Droid was shipped, it was plagued with a lousy autofocus bug. But then, it magically seemed to fix itself. Did Verizon secretly update all the phones from afar? Nope. The explanation is much weirder than that. There's a rounding-error bug in the camera driver's autofocus routine (which uses ...

I prefer a rub down with the real thing, myself, but this $12 plastic USB burger massager, with heat, will have to do until my next quarter cow is delivered. From Brando, natch. (Brando)

Pyro was never my favorite of the X-Men, but that doesn't mean I'm not excited about this DIY project allowing me to mimic his powers. It's called Prometheus, and it's by far one of the best wrist-mounted flamethrowers I've seen. There have been similar projects in the past, but none actually produced ...
