9to5Mac found these delightful buttons.
What the deuce? It seems that the new iPad SDK 3.2 Beta 3 has some very interesting bits of code and UI components that point to a front facing camera – a boolean called hasFrontCamera – and a boolean for a flash LED (not Adobe Flash) called hasFlash. There are also [...]

The wild world of rapid-fire phone software updates has spoiled us all, but HP’s bringing just a smidgen of that to the world of home servers. This week owners of the last-gen EX470 and EX480 series will be able to nab a DVD that updates their servers to the new 3.0 software currently available on the , including better Mac support and automatic media transcoding. Unfortunately, this update isn’t free: you’ll have to pay $25 for the privilege. EX470 / 475 owners are also encouraged to bump their unit up to 1GB of RAM if they haven’t already. We aren’t thrilled at the fee, but there is something a bit more reassuring in this process than Motorola’s OTA update model.

BCC launches Alex, the laptop free of hassles but not monthly surcharges (video)

What’s better than paying £400 ($615) for a laptop from a place that won’t tell you isn’t very forthcoming about what’s inside it? Paying that much for a laptop that then comes with a £9.99 ($15) monthly fee just to use the thing. It’s the Alex from BCC, the Broadband Computer Company (not to be confused by the , or Alex Bushill from the BBC), a somewhat chunky looking laptop loaded with some custom layer over Linux promising an always updated, always ready, and incredibly easy to use experience. It also has a round mousepad that says “Alex” on it. The machine should be secure, shipping with a USB thumb drive that must be plugged in for it to work — something we’re guessing most people will never bother to unplug. There’s online file storage and a UI full of pretty colors, but we’re having a bit of a hard time with that cost. That said, if you’re the perpetually on-call tech support person in your family it might be a small price to pay for some peace and quiet.
Update: TheLostSwede dug through the Alex site and found a . We’re talking 1.6GHz worth of Intel T1600 Celeron power, 1GB of memory, a 15.4-inch display driven by integrated graphics, 120GB of storage, and a DVD/RW drive. Hot stuff, readers. Hot stuff.

Kondo KHR-3HV robot celebrates Engadget Award with a new Linux backpack (video)

Yes, , you were our choice for , and we see you’re celebrating by going out and getting yourself some new gear. We like your taste. Inside that fancy new backpack is a 32-bit Samsung ARM CPU running at 200MHz, powerful enough to handle Linux and things like onboard image processing and object recognition. It also supports WiFi, meaning Kondo can beam what he sees wirelessly and become a roving security guard — a very small and non-lethal security guard, but a guard nontheless. This kind of tech (shown off in a video below) will set you back ¥60,000, or about $660, and yes that’s just for the backpack. (The bot itself goes for somewhere north of the $1,300 range.) So congratulations again on your victory, 3HV — just don’t let it go to your webcam.
