We don't know how many people have hit this problem (the Apple support forums talk about only overheating here and here, as a sample), but at least one user claims that his white iPhone 3GS has become PINK with heat.

Not that there's much to take away from this, but just take a look at your white iPhone 3GS. If it looks like the photos here, then you have a problem. Or you've been eating cotton candy and you need to wipe your hands first before checking your email. [Nowhereelse via Engadget]

The 911 system is a streamlined way for the authorities to be notified of emergencies in their jurisdiction. It's also a number that morons call when their fast food orders are screwed up or they forget what day it is.

Once upon a time in World War II, British scientists conceived what may be the cruelest bomb ever developed. Inside the bomb, there were needles like these. Poisonous needles which would have been released in a cloud of death.

The idea was so bad that the head of the British research team sounded ashamed in his letter to sewing machine manufacturer Singer, when he asked for help in manufacturing the hollow needles needed to deliver the toxin:

It is a little difficult to explain what I want sewing machine needles for…

Fortunately, it was never used. The hollow needles—developed with the help of Canadian and American researchers—would have penetrated clothes and kill anyone in thirty seconds, presumably in painful spasms. The bad news: The British want them back. The good news: They want to use a non-lethal agent. [BBC News via Danger Room]

If you have been keeping up, you know that Windows 7 pre-ordering has already begun, and that there's seriously discounted pricing if you do it. So I am wondering—how many of you are taking advantage of this deal?

The Gadget: A motion detecting bedside coaster that will make sure that your glasses (both eye and drinking) are bright enough for you to see in the dark, while at the same time not too bright to wake you up.

The Price: $25

The Verdict: Buy one! If you're anything like me and wake up multiple times in the middle of the night to drink water, you'll be glad you have this Nite Coaster to ensure that you can see the target clearly in your half-asleep haze.

Even if you can feel your way to your glass or glasses or phone with your eyes closed in the dark, the fact that it's illuminated means you can reach it much faster without the risk of knocking stuff over. Less grope time means more sleep time.

And if you're worried about this being overly bright or overly sensitive to motion—it's not. The light is just bright enough so that you can see in the dark, but not bright enough to even match something like a cellphone screen or something that can wake you up when you're asleep. Plus it makes your drinking glass look cool. [Nite Coaster]
