Razer , US-based gaming peripherals company, announced yesterday at the on-going Gamer Developer’s Conference (GDC) that with the drivers they will issue for Mac users, they will be able to use the upcoming products. Not only that, for the already existing product lines, they will also be releasing the driver software. Good news is, for starters, they released yesterday a Mac driver for their popular laser gaming mice the Naga MMOG and the DeathAdder

I bought it in ~2001 at Toys R Us. It’s a generic webcam. I looked for 4 hours searching on Google, and I cannot find the drivers. I plug it in and ‘fo.

Motorola has a new add-on for their WiMAX USBw 200 adapter. It’s effectively a docking station for the mobile adapter with it’s own power supply and larger antenna. The larger docking station sits upright and accepts the USB WiMAX adapter into its center. The elevation and angle should provide a modest improvement in signal by itself. Using the docking station’s dual internal antennas the sensitivity of the unit is roughly doubled from 3db up to 6db.

The USBw 200 adapter doesn’t need any other drivers to support the docking station. The USB dongle has all the drivers you need within its on-board flash memory. Unfortunately, the USBw 200 only has drivers for Windows XP, Vista and Windows 7. WiMAX service is only available in a few select cities but continues to roll out. Service may not be available for you yet, but the USBw 200 has been out for a few months and the new docking station should arrive later this year. We expect more pricing details as the shipping date (Q2 2010) gets closer.

Members of the device tinkering community have managed successfully get a Droid device to connect to USB peripherals. The Linux-based Android OS should be readily extensible, but the hardware that is wrapped around the OS isn’t always conducive to all the possibilities. The trick isn’t quite polished, it involves making your own USB cord and some cable swapping during a hard boot. It’s still a little buggy, but it’s a great step forward.

Once the hack gets a few more people working on it, there should be more stability. Currently, it’s not even really useful, devices are detected and powered up but not quite accessible. With the door open the Linux community should hop on board and knock the kinks out of it. Being able to access flash drives, MP3 players, TV tuners or digital cameras through USB On-The-Go should help extend high power cell phones like Droid into mobile Internet devices. Any thing that can run on Linux should be able to work on Droid. Look here for more news, hopefully wiring diagrams for the cable will show up so you can get in on the phone too. Video demo after the jump.

There are good things that happen for drivers at the motel and the roadside taverns, but then, these lead to some rather heavy eyelids when on the road. So, to make it all good for them, we have this cool SmartCap from Australia that manages to keep the drivers looking good and at the same time, keep them ‘awake’ (read: alive/safe) while on the road. Its concept is quite simple. The cap is capable of detecting the things in your head that go woozy when you’re sleepy. It immediately alerts the driver by sending an alert message across to the computer in the cab, which in turn alerts the driver that he needs to take a break.
The SmartCap was developed by Australian firm CRC Mining. These caps will be used by heavy vehicle operators who work at the company from December onwards. The makers are already considering it as a general necessity for everyone else as well. Phew!

The Apple MacBook’s entry level machine will be in with a lot more goodies. Firstly, we will see a better performing MacBook that will provide with a 2.26 GHz processor (previously: 2.13 GHz), 2 x 1GB 1066MHz DDR3 RAM (previously: DDR2) and a 250 GB hard drive in place of the former 160 GB offering. And the best part? All of this costs a mere $999. It will also include a cool built-in battery that will last for 7 hours after a single charge.
Kids can make the most of it with the help of the $50 education pricing. You can grab a good, respectable, not-so-noob laptop for as low as $849. Apple’s really taking our economy very seriously, and thankfully so.
