Cut the Rope gets ported to HTML5, gets chronicled on the way
Outlined during Microsoft's CES keynote earlier this week, gaming app Cut The Rope has had its journey to the world of HTML5 published for the masses. Tying together features like CSS3 styling and canvas-rendered graphics, the blog post details in cheery technical detail how creators ZeptoLab and Pixel Lab (not related) transferred the game from Objective-C to Javascript. Check the game for yourself down at the source and expect to see some extra levels designed especially for the browser platform. We'd love to play through those new levels, but we're all a little busy here...
RippleNote's T8100 tablet looks good converted
We'll hand it to 'em -- we've yet to see a RippleNote emerge from South Korea that we didn't think was at least marginally good looking, and the Ripple Tablet T8100 most certainly keeps the streak alive. Boasting a 12.1-inch 1,280 x 800 resolution touch panel, 1GB of DDR2 RAM, 120GB SATA hard drive, DVD writer and a 2.1GHz T8100 (surprised?) processor, this beauty can act as a traditional laptop or convert into a tablet should the mood strike you. As for ports, you'll find a trio of USB 2.0 connectors, built-in Ethernet, VGA, 4-pin FireWire, ExpressCard and audio in / out. Mum's the word on a price at the moment, but expect it to pop up 'round Seoul anytime.[Via AVING]
Pixel Lab unveils 17-inch RippleNote PLK570 gaming laptop
Earlier this month, we caught wind of a unique new laptop from Korea's own Pixel Lab, and while it's easy to see how the lid design could be a love / hate affair, we've great news for those leaning towards the latter. Apparently, the firm is rolling out another in the RippleNote lineup, this time with a top that exemplifies smoothness. The 17-inch PLK570 rocks some pretty decent hardware too, including a WXGA+ (1,440 x 900) panel, a 2.4GHz Intel Core 2 Duo, NVIDIA's GeForce 8700M GT, 160GB 7,200RPM SATA drive, 4GB of DDR2 RAM, gigabit Ethernet and WiFi to boot. Furthermore, you'll find niceties such as Bluetooth, a multicard reader, DVI / S-Video outputs, FireWire and audio in / out ports. We're still not convinced it's worth the ???2.3 million ($2,466) asking price, but we'll leave that one up to you.[Via MobileWhack]
Pixel Lab unveils Prism-esque RippleNote T7700 laptop
We can't exactly say we were expecting a Korean company to up and create a laptop that matches perfectly with your Nokia 7500 Prism, but lo and behold, Pixel Lab has done the unthinkable. The RippleNote T7700 stays true to its name, rocking a textured lid and an all black design that will certainly have its fair share of proponents and bashers. Nevertheless, those digging the look can expect an Intel Core 2 Duo T7700 processor, 2GB of DDR2 RAM, a 160GB hard drive, 802.11a/b/g/n WiFi, a 7-in-1 multicard reader, 1.3-megapixel camera, integrated microphone, a DVD burner, VGA out and a couple of USB ports to boot. No word on a price or release date, but don't worry, you'll see this one a mile away when it finally lands.
