Halo 3 could be one of the biggest releases this year for Microsoft. BBC's got the numbers to prove it! Guess what! It has set the record for the most revenue earned in 24 hours by an entertainment product, topping figures set by film Spiderman 3 and this is only in the United States, the count in UK hasn't been included.

First there was the dictionaries to translate one language to another. Then came the pocket translators, which was then considered the best ever. Now we have softwares and apps like Google translate and Babel fish to do the same. Well some of us know how hilarious they can be. Fuji Xerox is out to change all that for good hopefully! The photocopier pictured above from Xerox can scan a printed a sheet of Japanese text from a newspaper or magazine and out comes a translated version of it in Chinese, Korean or Engish, while still retaining the original layout.

Developed by Toyko-based Geltic corporation, the Beta Gel seems to be an amazing invention for absorbing shocks and takes the form of a gel. Currently it is being used in products such as shoe soles and protective lining for portable radio equipment. Well the question here how much can it absorb. Check out the video below! They claim that the Beta Gel can keep an egg intact even when thrown from a height of 22mtrs.

Looking very similar to the Dual Music Player(DMP), featured here, designer Yeon-shin Seung has extended it to play DVDs naming it the PDP( Portable DVD player) and also managed to squeeze an OLED screen. Not just any other OLED screen, Yeon-shin plans on using the Sony full color flexible organic electroluminescent display that is thin & lightweight. Unlike the DMP, the PDP works by twisting the candybar and then inserting a DVD. As for the display, the OLED screen pops out of candybar as seen in the pictures. Check it out in its innate form after the jump!

Hasselblad has pushed the limits again and achieved a new level in DSLR cameras with the H3D series. There by making  it the finest DSLR camera's available in the market. No wonder NASA decided to take Hasselblads to the moon! Introducing the Hasselblad H3D II with 39 megapixels. Sporting an CCD image sensor of 48x35mm  and boasting images of 39 megapixels,  it is the largest currently available model and has more than twice the size of even the largest 35mm camera sensors. Also built in is  a 3" bright LCD to view the images and GPS to remind you where you took them.

I once read some where that NASA had spent quite a fortune on research creating a ink based pen that works in space. I'm not sure of the sources, but here's one I can assure you can get your hands on...if you like the concept. Its a pen that uses no ink and writes on most typical papers we use today! Its a stainless steel pen about 8cm long and the 'nib' is a solid piece of metal. Grand Illusions has shown an example of what it would look like when used on a normal paper.

Designed by Eno Setiawan, the Vaio Zoom pictured here uses a holographic technology and its all sandwiched  within a thin glass form making its total width less than an inch. When the machine is off, the screen is completely transparent and the keyboard goes opaque. Switch it on and everything comes to life. Even the mouse buttons are holographic. It's still in the concept stage, but who knows this is what computers of the future might look like! Even if it does, I'm sure they would come up with a more durable form(recommend) other than glass. I would kill myself, if I had dropped one of these..
