It got a bit overshadowed by Apple's other software updates earlier today, but Apple TV users also have a few new features to enjoy whenever they're ready to plop down on the couch. Version 4.4 of the Apple TV software is now available to download, which adds the new Photo Stream feature to view photos stored in iCloud, as well as AirPlay mirroring, plus content from the NHL and Wall Street Journal, and a new movie trailer section. You'll also now be able to view subtitles in Netflix (when available, of course), and you have a few new slideshow themes to choose from.

drag2share: Samsung Galaxy S II and HTC Amaze 4G on sale at T-Mobile

Sure, we knew this day was coming, but now the wait is finally over. Now the main question for T-Mobile customers at the end of their contract is whether to pick up the Samsung Galaxy S II or HTC Amaze 4G. Both handsets are now on sale from the carrier, running $229 and $259, respectively (plus plan, post-rebate, naturally). Thankfully, we've got a full review of the 4.52-inch Galaxy S II magenta edition and a hands-on with the 4.3-inch Amaze 4G, which should help make the deciding a bit easier.

drag2share: Monoprice Makes a $60 Subwoofer that Might Actually Be Worth a Damn [Audio]

Source: http://gizmodo.com/5849108/monoprice-makes-a-60-subwoofer-that-might-actually-be-worth-a-damn

Monoprice, a website generally associated with peddling A/V cables on the cheap, also makes audio components on the cheap. And in a space where audio gear costs as much as houses, cheap speakers are normally ignored. But Monoprice's subwoofer may be the exception.

Cnet's Steve Guttenberg says that Monoprice's line of subs are wholly respectable, especially given the sub-$100 pricetags: $57 will net you an 8-inch, 60-watt sub, while $84 will get you a 12-inch, 150-watt boomer. Overall, Guttenberg preferred the smaller sub as it had good bass definition, even if lacking in power (it only goes down to 50Hz). The bigger sub, in his words, sounded sloppy, but had decent power. But all in all, they provide a cheaper alternative to systems upwards of $300. [Monoprice via Cnet]

drag2share: It's the iPod You Need, Not the One You Deserve: The White iPod Touch Is Here [IPod]

Source: http://gizmodo.com/5849166/the-white-ipod-touch-is-now-available-from-your-local-apple-store

If you've been chomping at the bit to get your grubby mitts all over the new white version of the iPod Touch, they're now available for purchase, or just poking, at Apple Retail Stores.

Announced at Apple's 'Let's Talk iPhone' event last week, the white version of the 4th generation iPod Touch doesn't bring a lot of new features to the table, save for that gleaming white visage. It does come with iOS 5 pre-installed, saving you the hassle of downloading it along with the rest of the world. And as a reminder, you're looking at $199 for the 8GB model, $299 for the 32GB and $399 for the 64GB. [iLounge via Cult of Mac]

drag2share: You Can Actually Turn Your DNA Into Houseware Decors [Design]

Source: http://gizmodo.com/5849176/you-can-actually-turn-your-dna-into-houseware-decors

It's one thing to put your own personal touch into the appearance of your home. But basing your household aesthetic around your own unique DNA signature takes that idea up more than a few notches.

DNA11 wants to take the visual representation of your DNA and print it up on rugs, bowls, prints, wallpapers and waterwalls. They currently have a full-blown campaign going to raise awareness for their project. If enough people vote in favor of any of these products, they will send it into production.

But it wont be cheap. Rugs will range between $1000 and $5000. The Waterwall starts at $10000. The other two...I shudder to think of the prices, but I still want all of it! [DNA11]
