Sony axes UMD conversion program

Posted in PSP Go! by Conner Flynn on September 26th, 2009

Sony axes UMD conversion programHere’s some bad news for PSP owners who want to upgrade to the PSP Go when it’s released. Sony has killed the UMD conversion plan. The idea was that PSP owners who had original UMD copies of their games would be entitled to free PSN downloads of the title, so that they can play it on the PSP Go when they upgrade.

But sadly “legal and technical reasons” put the axe on this plan. Which really sucks for PSP owners who have games they absolutely love. It sure doesn’t encourage PSP owners to upgrade and must feel like a slap in the face.

USB Man in gold and silver

Posted in USB Flash Drives by Conner Flynn on September 24th, 2009

USB Man in gold and silverThis guy makes quite a statement no? Rumor has it that a UFO Landed in 1947. A ramp unfolded. A door opened. And from the bright light and smoke, the USB man emerged, making contact with humanity. He is a race of 1. He is stronger than you, shinier than you and your wife is now his.

Beer courses through his veins and he pees a chemical compound that will fuel our civilization and end the energy crisis forever. Just because he can. The first human to see him reverted back to a primate state, approached by bounding on all fours, let out a chimp screech and knocked on his shiny exterior before quickly scurrying away. He’s that awesome.

Maybe because it comes with a built-in microSD memory card reader and supports USB charging. Ultimate? Probably not. To be ultimate it would need to be an in-ear iPhone or something.

Still, it is convenient to carry a microSD memory card with you at all times in your Bluetooth headset. And it only costs $39 to give it a go. They also offer an 8GB microSD card bundle for $65.
