Tablet costs less than half of the iPad, plays 1080p
We had to do a double take when we saw the $180 price on this 7-inch X10 touchscreen Tablet PC. Amid a sea of me-too slate PCs, this one makes lofty claims, including the most eyebrow-raising of all: the ability to play 1080p video over its HDMI port.
If this cheap 800×480 Wi-Fi and GPS-packing tablet can do what its maker says, it could be a game changer. Instead of spending $1000 on that bulky home theater PC we showed you yesterday, or $500 on the cheapest iPad, you could just plug this baby into your HDTV and watch a huge variety of Blu-ray-quality video formats, including H.264 and Matroska [...]

The electric car that can split in two
Here’s a crazy idea: an electric car that can split in two, becoming two separate cars. Or, more specifically, an electric car that can join up with another car of the same model to become one huge supercar.
That’s what Hungary’s Antro is trying to do with the Antro Solo. Pictured above, it’s an electric vehicle that seats three. However, when combined with another Solo, it becomes a six seater that joins forces to become even more efficient.
It’s a pretty wild idea, but one that makes a weird sort of sense. That doesn’t mean we’ll see it on the roads [...]

Tetris reaches 100M units sold on mobile phones
Though it was created more than 25 years ago, Tetris just keeps breaking records in the game industry. Today, the owners of the game announced that Tetris has sold more than 100 million units on mobile phones since 2005.

Katalin Weinberger’s HolyCo$t tale- Saved life of her sister by “burying her in ground for 30 days with a pipe sticking up through soil to breathe”
The story is that her sister was deathly ill with typhus, so she buried her in the ground on a remote part of the camp grounds with a small pipe sticking up to the surface for her to breathe. The sister stayed like this for 30 days, with Katalin sneaking food and water to her, and a jewish camp doctor snuck medicine.
I don’t know what to say to anyone who would believe this steaming pile of horse shit.

More on the horrors of the Holohoax from Eva Olsson’s tale – “Lived on black, watery soup that had tuffs of human hair in it, bones and mice”
Also, Eva was so hot at Bergen-Belsen, she says she dampened a cloth with her own urine in order to cool off. “Others, she recalled, drank their urine.” Think she got this from watching Bear Grylls on Man vs. Wild?
Eva survived the “death camps” of Auschwitz, Bergen-Belsen, and Buchenwald.
