GUI Galaxy

Sorry for the update delay, folks, but I do have a life outside of GUIGalaxy. Ok, I don’t. I did have to get quarantined from that monkey bite, however. Anyway, today we have faster iMacs, 12-core Mac Pros, 27″ Cinema Displays, and a brand new device, the Magic Trackpad. Bizzidy BAM!

Flipboard‘s self-titled iPad app aggregates your lame-ass tweets and emo facebook status updates into magazine-like spreads.

That’s not funny, bro.

The greatest iPhone case ever laid upon planet Earth, Colors by SwitchEasy, is now available for iPhone 4. Simple, practical, beautifully designed, and one of the absolute few to actually protect the phone’s “home” button. The case also comes with two anti-static screen guards, a microfiber wipe, a squeegee for screen guard application, and jack/port protectors. Get it, son.

An aluminum cylinder the size of a roll of toilet paper, the Aluminum Sound Tube MP3 Speaker brings booming (portable) audio to your iPhone/iPod. Not only does it apparently deliver crisp highs and booming base, but the speaker also is a self-contained MP3 player unto itself. Shipping with a 2GB Micro SD card (with support of up to 8GB), you don’t even need to bring your iPhone with you. Although…why on earth wouldn’t you have your iPhone with you? Loser.

What the Rocketeer!? The HM4 Thunderbolt watch from MB&F, dubbed a “Horological Machine”, is $158,000 worth of pure time-telling insanity. 3 years in the making, this time piece features dual cylinders, the left of which tells you how much power remains in its kinetic charger, with the right displaying the time. The aerodynamic, jet engine-like design is spawned from Maximilian Büsser‘s childhood passion for assembling model plane kits.

Drool over this bad boy, as it’s a Japan exclusive (for now).

Incubot is a company that has one mission: make absolutely badass retro robot collectibles. Like this officially-licensed rubber Voltron USB drive, for example. Hells to the yea.

Behold, the greatest keyboard your fat little sausage fingers might ever touch: the Art Lebedev Studio “Optimus Popularis“. It has some really cool features, like a perpetually-active status bar beneath the F-keys (showing things like the weather, stocks, new email). Also, the individual keys each have customizable displays which occupy nearly the entire key surface. Coming at the end of 2010 for “under $1,000″. Thanks for narrowing that down.

While previous Transformers-based games have sucked Energon by and large, Transformers: War for Cybertron looks to finally end that streak. Taking place on planet Cybertron long before the machines came to Earth, the game puts you in control of both the Autobots and Decepticons in different campaigns. Play online or with a fellow nerd via split screen.
