DNP 50 c headphones

It's been a busy month for SMS Audio and Mr. Jackson. After launching new Street by 50 headphones and wireless speakers, they're now introducing the first pair of SYNC by 50 cans that connect over Bluetooth 4.0 and have aptX support. The latest wireless headphones to come out of 50 Cent's audio labs have an on-ear, foldable design and 40mm custom drivers. Play / pause, next track and volume controls are built into an earpiece, while a microphone comes with the detachable cable. SMS Audio claims you can listen to Get Rich or Die Tryin' for up to 12 hours on the hardware before you need to juice them up via the microUSB port. Those who'd like to learn more don't have to find 50 in the club -- head past the break for the press release or visit the source, where the gear is available for $230 per pair.

Mario Sculpture Made out of Canned Food: Not One Filled with Cream of Mushroom Soup

Posted on by

Yes we CAN! Most stores stack their food in the same old boring way, but there are some stores or should I say some people, that rise above the status quo and go above and beyond the call of duty – like the guys who set up Canstruction at the SouthCentre Mall in Calgary, Canada.

Obviously guys working on this exhibit really love a good game of Mario. Is it wrong that I want to see a Koopa shell knock this awesome sculpture down? Or see Toad’s Kart barrel into it? I hope someone topples this thing at the end of the exhibit. Is that mean? it’s not like the cans aren’t going to go to a good cause when they fall over – with all the canned goods going to the Calgary Inter-Faith Food Bank.

Anyway, it’s pretty awesome what some geeks can do with a few cans and a dream.

R2-D2 Made out of Cans: Anyone Got an Opener?

Posted on by

Everyone loves R2-D2, right? There’s really no reason not to – even if he is made out of cans. That’s right, R2-D2 has been built out a bunch of cans of what look to be sweet corn, Star-Kist tuna and tins of sardines on his chest. Mmm… just what droids like to eat.

This giant R2-D2 can sculpture was part of this year’s San Francisco Canstruction exhibit, which took place at One Market in San Francisco. C-3PO was nowhere to be found, but it’s possible that R2 ran off without him as he’s been known to do.

In addition to everyone’s favorite little droid, the exhibit included a giant shark made out of cans, tributes to Inception and UP and and what appears to be a red Death Star.

Beats Electronics gets official with MOG acquisition, makes it an honest music streaming service

Beats Electronics gets official with MOG acquisition, makes it an honest music streaming service

The writing's been on the wall for some time now, with this having been considered a done-deal back in March, but now the two parties involved are going public. Beats Electronics, the house that Dre built, is acquiring the MOG music streaming service, adding a little content to its brightly-colored can offerings. No word on cost, but MOG is said to have raised $33 million in funding to date, so that might give you a ballpark figure. It's also unclear how or whether Beats-investor HTC might be involved in this new relationship, but if recent happenings are any indication, don't go expecting too much on that front.
