HTC Hero Video

Three words…I WANT NOW!

Too bad though because HTC has let us know that the “sense UI” will not be coming to Google branded phones. Sorry G1 and soon-to-be Mytouch users. HTC’s  interface flows so smoothly, and looks exactly like I wanted the G2 to be. Also shows how powerful Android can be. Too bad its not launching in N.America just yet.  You can check the video below in lust and agony:

Projector on…the iPhone???

You always have the latest toy. Everyone is always impressed with you…that’s why you are visiting The Manly Man Site. We try to keep you ahead of the curve in accessible technology so that you can continue to be superior to everyone around you (or at least think so anyway), which brings us to the MiLi Pro iPhone Projector. You can check the screens below:

Projector Screen Size: Approx 5-70″ with 640×480 resolution

Brightness: 10 Lumens

Battery Life: ???

Compatibility:  iPhone 3GS, 3G, 2G and iPod Touch, Classic

So two things off hand that I’m a little worried about. First, I’m not seeing a headphone jack. Second, I’m worried about battery life, since it has its on power source. They haven’t posted price just yet, and it should be coming out this fall.

New RCA “Small Wonder” EZ209HD

Not too Shabby

As it is our duty to keep you up to date on what will make you better than the man next to you, we introduce to you RCA’s new “Small Wonder” High Definition Video Recorder.  With its smooth contours and sexy design, you will be sure to turn heads, and receive lots of  “What’s that a fancy camera?” questions from your simple friends. You can respond curtly by letting them know that it’s indeed a full video camera that shoots in full blown HD aspect ratio…1280×720 to be exact.

It has a microSD slot that supports up to 16GB of memory. You can hold around 8 hours of HD Video with that or 40 hours of internet quality video! It also has an HDMI port that allows you to connect to your HDTV and view your footage straight from the device. The camera you ask? 8 glorious megapixels. Your display LCD screen is 2″ which isn’t too bad.

All in all I’d say its a pretty nice package that can fit in your pocket!

To Do, or not to Doo Doo

The Throne...where every man is king for a while

At long last, the awaited excuse to get up from your desk as arrived. The call of nature has rung through loud and clear, and the coffee, soda, juice, or water that was had for breakfast, has done its work. It’s urinatin’ time.

As you make your way to the rest room, you try not to make eye contact with that one cute girl so she doesnt think your staring at her boossom and think your some kind of a stalker perv. You evade the the guy with the weird haircut that talks incessantly about the same thing over and over again with a well played pivot move you picked up from streetball the other day. Nice move. Finally you make it to the stalls. The muscles relax, and you relieve yourself – or so you think.

It’s instinct to finish up by washing your hands (unlike your boss who always wants to shake your hand knowing good and well he hasn’t washed his hands for the past few days) and keeping it moving but the dreaded happens. As soon as you leave the bathroom, you feel your bowels doing their good work, and this mornings bagel is making its move as well. This is the question we all want answered. After you have already urinated and left, should you go back in for #2?

The risks: 1. The cute girl you were trying not to stare at notices you making another move for the bathroom again and immediately thinks you have explosive diarrhea, and this is just round two. She will think you have to booboo every time you get up and will give you with that look of disgust you were trying to avoid all along.

2. If you don’t go, you will be uncomfortable for the next 15 minutes, and have to go anyway, but this time you will need to have an excuse like, I left my pen etc… But if you wait, what if it really is explosive diarrhea? You try to let some gas out and its a wrap.

Our call is to make the move boldly. No flip-flopping. Go back in man and handle your business. In our collective experiences here at the manly man, certain female confidants have reported that the female bathroom is much worse than you think! Yeah, they have fancy stuff in there, but they have cloggings just like we do! Plus, you’ll be relieved when you get back to your desk, and you’ll be able to actually work instead of stall for a few minutes before you get back up.

So, with no apologies, no excuses be a Manly Man and take care of business when it arises.

Life Size Gundam in Tokyo

Its the eyes man! THE EYES!!!

They did it for real this time folks. I am in awe and wonder at how awesome this is. Ever wonder what a real 50 ft. Gundam staring down at you with violent intentions looked like? Well now you can…if you go to Japan, or watch the clip below.  The Gundam Statue was built to commemorate the cartoon’s 30 year history. For the fans, this is a replica of the classic RX-78-2. The RX-78-2 was the second of three Gundam prototypes created by the Earth Federation’s “V Project” according to wikia.

Mos Def: The Eccstatic

Ecstatic Album

Aiight yall,

I’ve actually been waiting on new material from Mos Def for a while. His last album, in my opinion, was lacking some oomph. A friend put it this way: “There was no fire behind what he was doing…no sense of urgency, or sense that it was possible for him to change the game up.” Personally,  it felt like his last two albums were really experiments. Now don’t get me wrong, I’m glad that they were put out there, but I just couldn’t get the excitement level up to where I thought it should be… until now.

You can take a listen to the entire Ecstatic Album here. Now doesn’t it sound a little different??? For one, he’s rapping which is always a plus. A business man should always know what business he’s in. The beats he has chosen this time around are great too, and have excellent atmospheric presence. An example would be “Wahid”. Also, his lyrical skills don’t seem to have aged a day with rhymes such as: “The eyes grow teary, the mind grows weary, I speak so clearly sometimes y’all don’t hear me. I push it past the base, know nations got to feel me” – Auditorium.  .

Secondly, take a listen to “History”.  Its featuring Talib, and he drops some ill verses as well as some inferences that I very happy with. He seems to allude to (yes thats right) another Blackstar Album!!!! He even mentions that it was like ten years ago, which I can’t believe! But I guess it has been that long. Well hurry up ya’ll! I aint gettin any younger!

50 Bucks from TMobile! How should I Spend it???

I'M RICH!!!!

So I went to the mail and got 50 bucks from T-Mobile. Their line-up has gotten quite nice with the Samsung family of phones with the crazy megapixel cameras, as well as their sidekicks and, of course, Google Phone. With the rumored “Mytouch” or “G2” coming up as well as the Touch Pro 2 potentially hitting stores in the next few months, I’m actually kinda glad I stuck with them.

Now, Im having trouble trying to figure out what to do with my money! write your comments and suggestions below and if I like…Ill buy and post for all to see. I will make my purchase on the 10th so you better hurry!!!

#4 Choosing a Race thats Comfortable for You!

#4 on our list of manly characteristics is choose a race and stick to it! Some folks kinda slip in and out of races they can “pass” for depending on the situation. A real man will either choose one side, or make something up that he is comfortable with. Here is what I mean. People have labels for one another. “White”, or “black”, or “Asian” etc. But what if I don’t want to be labeled by someone else… to fit in someone else’s definition of race. Do I have to be simply black or white or Asian, or Hispanic etc…? What if I want to include the other races that helped to create me? Or, what if I don’t. Isn’t that my choice? Maybe, maybe not…but the writer of this article will henceforth no longer be considered simply black, but Jamerican-Tan-Brown McChocolaty (the last part is for the ladies). Those who wish to liberate themselves from the bondage of Labelism…what will you be called from this day forward???

New Metal Gear Solid Game…Again!!

Yeah, so Kojima is up to his old tricks and has come out with yet another MGS game. If you check the E3 Video below you’ll see like 4 different Snakes. Must be Solid, Liquid, Gaseous,  and…random other Snake. Now, I was confused about the storyline before, but now I’m really confused. I’m also not sure if this is playable on psp, or for the new PSP-go.  Video below for your enjoyment!
