The Daily Engadget: Mac OS X 10.6.1 Now Available, Hunting Celebs with Augmented Reality
Our friends over at Engadget obsessively cover everything new in gadgets and consumer electronics, which is why we compile this daily roundup of their top stuff (or, at least, what we think is tops). For more details on any of these stories, click on the Engadget links in each story below.

Mac OS X 10.6.1 Update Now Live

Mac's OS X users, there's a new update available for you -- the first for the just-released Snow Leopard. There aren't any major changes, but it does upgrade Adobe Flash to avoid a nasty vulnerability.


Celebrity Hunting With Layar Augmented Reality App

If you're the sort who unabashedly peruses the tabloids while waiting in the check-out aisle, you may be interested in the 'Famous People Finer' feature on the 'augmented reality' browser Layar. It enabled these Dutch enthusiasts to track down a rather displeased looking Brad Pitt.

Hands-On With Motorola's CLIQ

 Motorola is jumping on the Android bandwagon with its new CLIQ smartphone, running a user interface design called MOTOBLUR that promises to merge all your social networking activities.


Windows 7 to Get Better Version of Netflix

Netflix streaming is one of the best things to happen to movies since the invention of the talkie, and Microsoft looks set to make it even better with an enhanced experience on Windows 7.


Nokia Twist Unveiled

Nokia's latest handset may not be its most high-end, but it is one of its most funky. The Twist is a small, flip-out handset that looks gorgeous, and is available for $99.99 (after a $50 mail-in rebate), with a two-year contract.


T-Mobile myTouch 3G $100 Off Thanks to Oprah

You may have missed out on the free car deal from Oprah, but the great O is offering another (albeit less exciting) discount: $100 off the myTouch 3G at T-Mobile.
