Sports fans will now have a special treat on the Xbox. Microsoft has confirmed plans to launch an updated version of the ESPN service on Xbox Live on Aug. 25. One of the most interesting new features is a split-screen view for watching two games at once.

The pdate coincides with the college football season. Other new features include a mini guide at the bottom of the screen, and the ESPN “BottomLine” news and score ticker that we all know and love. ESPN on Xbox 360 is free to Xbox Live Gold members who connect through participating broadband providers.

Sony recently demonstrated some new technology that lets different people see different images on a TV screen, depending on what angle they are viewing the TV from. They are calling it dual-view and the technology will allow users to compete in multiplayer games without having a split screen.

There are other potential uses as well, like the ability to watch 2 TV shows at the same time, on the same screen, even though audio would need to be split using headphones or something.

The Split Screen Fashion Watch from 01 THE ONE will turn your boring old binary style watch into a completely different watch. A watch that is on the cutting edge of hotness, not to mention hipness. Those looking to bling out their wrist space this summer have three new colorful designs.

All three were specially constructed to be water resistant up to 99 feet. Don’t be a daredevil and go for that 100 depth. They will feature a binary timing system, along with month and date functions as well.
