Boxee has finally combined the Internet set-top box with a DVR. The
Boxee TV ($100) features two tuners so you can watch one show while you record another, and it works with both a digital antenna and unencrypted cable. It still offers a fluid, good looking UI like the previous versions of Boxee and it gives you access to the online services you want. The biggest feature of this product is there is NO limit to how much you DVR. All your DVR recording are uploaded to the cloud, which means you can access it from anywhere, although it does have a $15 a month subscription fee but it's only available right now in NYC, LA, Chicago, Dallas, Houston, Atlanta, Phily and DC to start. So it may be a while before that service is available in your area.

The Bicymple is a simple unicycle that removes the need for a chain. This working prototype was created by Josh Bechtel and Scalyfish Designs. The design is made of a CroMo Steel frame that is just two simple bars that run above and between the two wheels.
"By removing the chain, the number of moving parts and overall complexity is significantly reduced. A direct-drive, freewheeling hub joins the crank arm axis with the rear-wheel axis, shortening the wheelbase and minimizing the design. "
If your still wondering how do even ride this thing, then check out the video below and it will clear up a few things and demonstrate the interesting possibilities rear steering adds to your ride.
