Video Clip Reveals Possible Chinese State-Sponsored Hack Attack

Solid proof regarding the origins of high-profile international cyberattacks is typically elusive. However, when Western interests are targeted, suspicion often turns to China -- whether rightfully or otherwise. Those suspicions were again aroused recently, courtesy of government-controlled China Central Television.

Razer Blade: hands-on with 17 inches of gaming greatness

Something big's been brewing over in Carlsbad, and the time has finally come for it to be revealed to the world: the Razer Blade. The onyx aluminum beaut before you is the culmination of over three years of work by a stealth team of engineers -- many of them absorbed from the former OQO team. Despite being only 0.88 inches thick (thinner than another 17-incher we know...), the svelte number still packs a punch with a 2.8GHz Core i7-2640M CPU and GeForce GT 555M graphics replete with 2GB of GDDR5 video memory. All that graphical horsepower will splay your exploits on a 17.3-inch LED 1920 x 1080 full HD panel with an HD webcam nestled above. Rounding out the package is 8GB of RAM, three USB ports (one of the 3.0 persuasion), HDMI-out and a 60Wh integrated battery. And it could all be yours for $2,799 when it debuts in Q4 of this year.

That's dandy, but we're more stoked on the 480 x 800 LCD trackpad just to the right of the backlit keyboard. It works either as a multitouch-enabled input device or as an additional display for in-game info when the urge to slay demons with an external mouse strikes. North of that hotness lie ten fully customizable buttons, both in appearance (courtesy of a separate LCD) and in function. The keys and trackpad were last seen on a keyboard in a galaxy far, far away, and are running a custom Switchblade UI -- inspired by the company's oh so sexy Switchblade concept that we saw at CES. And just like the concept, Razer's used a custom lighting panel to ensure you can see those keys clearly from an angle -- people don't look straight down at their keyboards, after all. Follow on past the break for more impressions, video and PR.

Sony's Digital Link Sound System brings all-in-one iOS integration to your dashboard

Is your car yearning for more iOS integration? Sony's got you covered, with its new Digital Link Sound System. The company's new audio package is available in two models: the all-in-one XDP-PK1000 and the more compact XDP-MU110. The former consists of five components, including an iPhone / iPod Touch cradle (pictured above), wireless remote control, customizable digital sound processor, 12-inch box subwoofer and 300 watt Class D mono block amp. The XDP-MU110, on the other hand, is geared toward drivers who are already content with their amp / subwoofer setup, but simply want to outfit their ride with a fresh audio system, with the help of Sony's cradle, processor and remote. If you're interested in getting one, however, you'll have to wait a little longer; the XDP-PK1000 is expected to start shipping in September, for about $800, with the XDP-MU110 slated to ship in November, for $400. Cruise past the break for more information, in the full PR.

Sony's AR tool lets you put big screens in small apartments (video)

It may not be a slick as Panasonic's dream-TV AR app, but at least Sony's keeping up with the competition. Live from the company's UK outfit is an online AR tool enabling you, dear reader, to visualize all sorts of boob tubes you can (and can't) afford. After printing, affixing and photographing a marker, prospective buyers can get a better sense of what sets fit in their humble abodes. Interested in giving it a go? Mosey on past the break for PR and a video, and then hop beyond the source link to begin your adventure.

Microsoft Kinect is the Hands-Free Deal of the Day [Dealzmodo]

I hate buttons. I really hate buttons. Hate 'em on my clothes (pro-velcro!). Hate 'em on my phones (touchscreens!). And I really hate 'em on video game controllers. That's why this whole motion-sensor craze in video gaming makes me so happy. I don't have to push anything any more. I just wave my hands around a lot and before I know it, I've rescued the princess. The Microsoft Kinect is an especially rad motion gaming accessory for the Xbox 360, which has all sorts of cameras which let you do stuff without holding a controller at all. Normally, a refurbished Kinect costs about $100. But there's a deal going on that can have you on your couch, waving your hands around just like me, for only $80. -AC

Top Deals

? 20" Gateway ZX4300 Touchscreen 4GB 640GB All-in-1 PC Desktop (REFURBISHED) for $390 with free shipping (normally $750 {Savings of $360 / 48% off})

National Geographic's Great Map App Lets You Take the World For a Spin

The National Geographic Society may be best known for its iconic yellow National Geographic magazine, which very often includes, folded up inside, some awesome maps from all around the world. As a youngster, I remember pouring over National Geographic maps on the living room floor, hanging a map of North America on my bedroom wall, and using them as study aids in school.
