Finger Piano Share plays your Disklavier via WiFI (video)
Developers at Yamaha seem to be having plenty of fun with their iPhones — at least, that’s the impression they’ve made this year at CEATEC . Not only have we seen an app that lets you boss around a robotic chanteuse , but they’ve also put together a little something called Finger Piano Share. Don’t let the video fool you, folks — this is more than just a MIDI controller. Supporting up to ten users at once, this guy not only lets you remotely play your MIDI-enabled Disklavier via Wi-Fi, but you can record your little jam sessions (using the location-aware augmented reality app Sekai Camera) for playback whenever someone goes to the location of the original…

Here’s an interesting thought. Rather than driving to a Wi-Fi enabled location why not always take it with you? Chevrolet has announced that they will offer a dealer-installed wireless internet system for some SUV, truck and van models. Once installed users will be able to use a Wi-Fi enabled device within a 150 feet radius

As we were all painfully aware, it took AT&T forever to bring MMS to the iPhone. A new app has just been released that hopes to one-up it. Knocking , made by Pointy Heads Software, is basically a photo-sharing app on steroids. With it, you can pretty much instantaneously share up to 100 photos at once between two iPhones. This works by establishing...
VoIP startup TringMe has launched a Facebook application that lets users make calls from the social network using its Flash-based web phone for browsers. The app also lets you embed widgets to your profile for your Facebook friends to call or SMS you. The app has much of the functionality that a regular VoIP app like Skype has. TringMe’s...
It’s pretty obvious what it takes to play in the current generation of PMPs : enough juice to process HD videos, and an HDMI port to get it off the player and onto the big screen. Unfortunately, the new i-Station T9 from Digital Cube sort of stops there. It has great codec support, and even WiFi and Bluetooth connectivity (to be enjoyed...
My oh my, what have we here? The “NEO SNES/SFC MYTH FLASH CART” is basically a cartridge that you pop into your Super Nintendo (you do still have your Super Nintendo, don’t you?) that’s got 256MB of onboard memory upon which you can load up ROMs. So take a tally of your legally-owned SNES cartridges, download them all in ROM form, and...
Ion Audio takes cheap camcorders in a unique direction with Twin Video, a double-lens/dual-mic video camera that records two images at the same time. You can choose to record one image full frame with another picture-in-picture in the corner, record a split screen, or switch from one full-frame shot to another, alternating shots like a real TV...
By Andrew Liszewski Well here’s an interesting advancement in projector technology. Funai and Nippon were showing off a jointly-developed micro projector at CEATEC last week that allows users to interact with the projected image by simply touching a secondary display.

[Gadgets]
The Internet connection adds a twist: it lets you subscribe to live-piano “radio stations.” For $20 a month (or $200 a year), you can tune into channels like Classical, Broadway or Rock.
