Illusion Labs shows off multitouch ‘Touchgrind’ gaming demo on a MacBook
One of our favorite iPhone games is Touchgrind. Sure, we're terrible at it, but at least we feel like we're accomplishing something "totally street" and "badass" with the multitouch input that the iPhone allows. Well, Illusion Labs is looking at bringing some of that magic to the Mac. They've got a demo up of the game running in a jumbo manner on a multi-finger-friendly MacBook. It looks pretty much like a straight port at this point, but hopefully the added horsepower and screen size of the Mac can make this into something a bit more magical -- and maybe even trick us into thinking we're decent fingerboardists, if only for a moment. Right now this is just a tech demo, and there are no firm plans of a release. From the noodlings of Illusion Labs' Twitter account, it looks like they also wouldn't mind porting it to an "iSlate" if the opportunity presented itself. Hear that, Cupertino? You might be able to get someone to build an app for this mythical device ! Big sigh of relief, we're sure. Video is after the break.

HP EliteBook 8440w lives up to its "workstation" title, says the reviewing masses
Since the royal unveiling of HP's six new Elitebooks and ProBooks last week , the Elitebook 8440w (w standing for workstation) has been making the review rounds, and receiving overwhelmingly positive feedback from the chaps at Notebook Review , LAPTOP and Computer Shopper . All were impressed by the Core i7-620M and NVIDIA Quadro FX 380M power that's been crammed into the 14-inch chassis, but unsurprisingly that causes some warm underside temperatures. Other than that, the 8440w received high praise for its durable gunmetal-build and "exceedingly" comfortable keyboard, but the touchpad was noted as being too small. Actually, the guys over at Notebook Review even go as far to say that the laptop would be "absolutely perfect" if that pad and its buttons weren't so squished. Now that's quite a bold statement. All in all, the 8440w seems like a solid and very mobile workstation, but hit up the sources if you're dying to know more about the $1,650 rig.

Hands On With the Atom-Powered UMID mBook BZ [Mid]
The UMID mBook BZ is in many ways a curious animal: it packs a ton of power into a MID, but doesn't know quite to how to harness it. It's a ultrasmall computer that can be ultrahard to use. The mBook BZ has many of the same specs as its predecessor, the M1 : it has the same 4.8" touchscreen at 1024x600 resolution, the same 512MB of memory, and runs the same outmoded Windows XP operating system. The BZ, though, runs on the 1.3GHz Atom Z515 processor, which helps it get listed with a pretty incredible seven hours of battery life with continuous playback. The mBook BZ also features a 1.3 megapixel webcam, VGA out, and a built-in microphone. When closed, the BZ is about the size and shape of a large billfold; it's small enough to fit into your pocket. The device is arrayed such that the touchpad is to the right side of the display and operated with your right thumb. Above it is the webcam. To the left of the display are the right and left buttons, above which is the speaker. It seems like an efficient use of space, and the touchpad is pleasantly responsive, but it also places you in the awkward position of having to readjust your hands every time you want to move from navigation to typing and vice versa. That is, if you're able to type at all. For all of its impressive functionality, probably the biggest drawback of the mBook is the keyboard. It's just too small to use, at least for my adult fingers. I can hunt-and-peck more quickly than I can touch type, and the hunting and pecking is a slow and deliberate business. Using your thumbs should be a viable option, but the keys are so tightly packed and the space bar so narrow that Fortunately, the Thepot Player software simplifies the UI on the BZ model provided to Gizmodo by Intel. It offers large icons for Bluetooth, Music, Dictionary, and other applications that are easily accessible through the touchscreen. Using the touchscreen for other functions, though—like closing out a web page—proved difficult-to-impossible, given the small size of the display. If you enjoy MIDs, you'll be happy with the mBook BZ. It's got standard specs, but seven hours of continuous battery life in a device whose whole purpose is portability is an automatic win. If you don't enjoy MIDs, well, I'm not sure the this is the one that will change your mind. And neither will the price tag: the BZ will be available at Dynamism.com $549 on January 22nd, although it will sell for $499 for a limited time after its release.

Scrybe from Synaptics brings new life to your tired touchpad
Did your laptop maker not see fit to include any jazzy gesture support into your touchpad? Did you buy early and miss out on the multitouch revolution? Synaptics wants to fill the gap for those portables (and suitably-equipped desktops) with its Scrybe software. It augments Windows' existing touch functionality to add context-specific gestures and motions, and while jog-dial control for media has us most excited, you'll also be able to edit photos, look up word definitions, and plenty more -- even if you don't have a 10-finger capable device. The plan is for the company to make partnerships with various manufacturers so that this software becomes standard issue stuff, but you can get a taste of it today thanks to a roughly 10MB beta preview downloadable now at the read link. Do let us know what you think. Scrybe from Synaptics brings new life to your tired touchpad originally appeared on Engadget on Mon, 04 Jan 2010 10:21:00 EST. Please see our terms for use of feeds .

Synaptics Scrybe Is Like Quicksilver Plus Fingerpainting for Your Laptop (Dumb, for Now) [Touchpads]
It sounds nice: Turning your notebook trackpad into a gesture area for shortcuts, like instantly searching, with a squiggle of your finger. But you have to learn a whole series of strokes, so it's like Palm Graffiti all over again. In practice, if you learn all of the gestures, it basically works like Quicksilver on a Mac , except with a trackpad instead of a keyboard. Press a button to activate gestures, then draw what you wanna do, which, theoretically, happens instantly. The onscreen graphical pop-up even kinda looks like Quicksilver's. But it's not nearly as fast, and it's kind of a strange abstraction for a laptop that's one step to the side, and two steps backward, with your shoelaces tied together. Scrybe is a firmware update with Gesture Suite 9.4, if you have the right Synaptics trackpad. Synaptics Previews Scrybe™ – The Revolutionary Next Generation in PC Touch Interfaces Scrybe Gesture Workflows Enable Intuitive Touch Experience SANTA CLARA, Calif. – January 4, 2010 – Synaptics Inc. (NASDAQ: SYNA), a leading developer of human interface solutions for mobile computing, communications, and entertainment devices, today announced beta availability for Scrybe™ gesture workflows, the next-generation advancement in TouchPad™-based interfaces for PCs. Scrybe leverages finger movements to create fluid gesture shortcuts intended to boost productivity and efficiency by getting more work done with fewer steps. Scrybe delivers a powerful gesture engine to PC manufacturers who want to utilize the latest gesture technology to enhance the overall user experience. Scrybe, part of the newest Synaptics Gesture Suite (SGS) 9.4, allows PC OEMs and end users to personalize gestures to link task-oriented workflows for Internet, media, entertainment, and productivity applications that result in a more efficient, productive, and fun user experience. Scrybe also introduces customizable gesture symbols for communicating with a PC that enable users to perform complex tasks using the TouchPad alone. For example, selecting a word or phrase by double-tapping and then tracing the "?" symbol can automatically launch the browser and perform an immediate directed search for the selected word or phrase. This advanced gesture feature provides faster results and eliminates typographical errors. The personalized gesture suite can be used to run presentations or enjoy digital media, provide controls for play, pause, previous, and next commands and to advance through music lists, photos, and more. A user can also use the personalized gesture suite to rotate, crop, tag, rate, and enhance images, as well as perform Windows system functions — all without ever lifting a hand from the TouchPad. "Synaptics' innovative Scrybe gesture technology introduces a revolutionary way to use the TouchPad that promises to fundamentally change the very foundation of the human-computer relationship," said Ted Theocheung, head of the Scrybe program and director of Synaptics PC and Digital Home Business Unit products. "Scrybe technology demonstrates Synaptics' innovative leadership and ongoing commitment to providing a richer user experience that is focused on increasing overall productivity for PC users." Scrybe is optimized for multi-touch TouchPads, but also supports existing single-touch TouchPads in the market. The updated Synaptics Gesture Suite 9.4 with Scrybe technology introduces a number of new multi-touch gestures and an improved graphical user interface. SGS 9.4 includes media control gestures for stop, play, rewind, fast-forward, next, previous, and jog dial advance; productivity gestures to zoom, fit to window, flip, and redo; as well as Windows 7 system gestures and Windows Touch compatibility modes. The improved two-finger twist rotate is simpler and can provide free rotation capabilities that work well with all other gestures in the suite. A new SGS API provides software application developers with a method to make use of all the latest technologies to deliver a richer application experience. SGS 9.4 with its Scrybe workflow technology will ultimately simplify and streamline TouchPad control and enable customized features to make personalizing the TouchPad easier than ever. Users can launch the SGS control panel from the system tray with one click, then discover and customize settings utilizing the available short help videos which clearly demonstrate and explain how each gesture works. Intelligent contextual pop-up tips help users to discover all of the TouchPad capabilities and explain how to apply them to make using the computer easier and more fun. The clearer, easier to use interface and extensive help system reduces support calls for PC OEMs and increases productivity for users. Availability OEMs can obtain SGS 9.4 with Scrybe through their Synaptics sales representative. End users can visit www.uscrybe.com to sign up for participation in the beta program and learn more about Scrybe and qualifying TouchPad-compatible hardware. Beginning today, Synaptics will offer this "technology preview" beta version of SGS 9.4 with Scrybe via software download to end users with existing notebooks that utilize a Synaptics TouchPad. Synaptics anticipates strong participation in the beta program by end users and will conclude downloads of Scrybe once it has been determined that a sufficient number of downloads have occurred to collect sufficient usability data. More details on Scrybe are available by visiting www.uscrybe.com.

Audi A8 MMI adds handwriting recognition to list of 2011 features
The A8's Multi Media Interface (a fancy name for a nav unit with media player attached) is already a pretty sophisticated piece of tech , but Audi has opted against resting on those laurels and has pushed out a new feature for the luxury saloon's next iteration. The 2011 A8 (available in Spring 2010 -- crazy, we know) will benefit from the same handwriting recognition as promised for the next-gen R8 , wherein the user is able to scribble his destination all John Hancock-like and then use the touchscreen to complete his instructions. With Cyrillic, Chinese, Japanese, and Korean character support, this could be a particular boon for gadget lovers of a more Eastern persuasion. And just in case you're fretting that the rest of your gear won't get as much love, there are further plans afoot for connecting the car via UMTS and distributing WiFi goodness to the devices inside it. The only thing this is missing is a Snoop Dogg voiceover for the ultimate in convergence tech. Video after the break.
